The papers will tell us we need to tighten the purse strings after all this spending, make it analogous to a household budget, and we’ll sign up for another 10 years. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m guessing that’s best case scenario on relaxing some of the social distancing measures? Who knows. Maybe we just need to believe in ourselves more? “Let’s get Coronavirus gone” that should do it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah this really isn’t the gig Johnson signed up for. If it wasn’t an on-going disaster it would be funny to watch. Last nights press conference was a joke. At least up until then he’d been trying. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I wasn’t/am not a fan of the government mainly due to their Brexit stance and conduct during the election and I was willing to give them a chance based on the hope their tone would be somewhat more professional than it was during the election campaign. In fairness apart from a few aspects I...
