Shambles now.

Doing well.

It's a changing situation, tough to get everything right re advice to give.

he has been in power less than a year, yet he has had to deal with two of the countries biggest problems in history.    He can be forgiven for a few mistakes.

He's out of his depth. It's not a time for a softly-softly approach. You only have to look at Spain and France a week ago to see what this country should do now to reduce the rate of spread. Last nights speech was a good example of how he's missed a chance to be truly decisive and opted for an ambiguous statement - and just look at how that has turned out on here nevermind out in the real world.
And after speaking to paramedics in Preston today you can see maybe where things are going - 130 staff short and not enough to cover and not ppe. The cuts are coming home to roost, in their words. 
The good thing about science is that it's true whether you believe it or not.

The government says it's being science led by SAGE, the CMO and CSO.

What qualifications do you have that outweighs a whole team of scientists, many of whom specialise in epidemics?

And from that - done at a time when things were low risk - you think BoJo's whole handling of covid-19 - so far - is a shambles.

Haven't you anything better?

That's just here; people are making up stuff and sharing fake news.

I've been providing gov guidance and links to things that gov ACTUALLY SAYS.  You can take a horse to water but cannot make it drink.

Meanwhile new temporary 4000 bed hospital opening next week:

Look, everyone is emotional. It's a difficult time for everyone. Especially us.

All I want is clarity. Genuine leadership from someone I feel I can trust.

Boris is not it.

Boris is not it.

Gov said it would pay your staff 80% of their wages if you furlough them.

People can work if they can do the 2 meter rule thing.

You should also be able to get loans/grants.

Tax bills deferred.

What is it you want clarity on?

Well, to prevent the usual forum- style pile on, I'll start by saying it's just my opinion. I'm not a scientist, or political commentator, or analyst or any other job that could be informing government opinion, it's just my opinion. The post alluded to asking for my opinion and I put it out there.

But then this is the same government that told us we didn't need to listen to expert opinion a few months back. And you can advise someone 'til you're blue in the face but they don't have to take your advice.  Again, just my opinion, not SAGE,  the CMO's or any other professionals... but the clarity was missing from last nights announcement, hence last nights and todays arguments on the forum. It needed a firm, black-and-white spelling out of who should be going to work and who should be stopping at home, with supporting info on government websites to make it crystal clear.
The good thing about science is that it's true whether you believe it or not.

Listen wey eh bonzo, you can pretend that you're confident in what Boris has done and said so far but sreeds of social media posts from people decimating perfectly good businesses because of his poop show prove otherwise.
