Boris gets to go to America.... (Disneyland next?)

He really does act a fool, or more likely is a fool.... embarrassing for Britain. He has lost on his trade deal, been slapped down on his changes to the NI agreement and terms of the border controls and had his tail between his legs all week.

Shocking video of an Anti-Vaxer renoving a patient from a Hospital

Really is shocking. The patient apparently had to be rushed back in.

Re: This is a start I hope...

Anyone who thinks shortages of key staff is just a Covid issue, is blindly ignoring the effect of Brexit occurring simultaneous with Covid.

It will get worse. Most sectors are suffering badly with shortages. The numbers who left the UK are much higher than expected.

Re: This is a start I hope...

The SNP and Sturgeon, hasn't been perfect. I cannot defend them on many aspects, such as the drug deaths. As to NHS Scotland V NHS England performances, both have, in my opinion, failed. There's little between those failures and it's incredible how oppositions highlight failures yet ignore their own...

Re: This is a start I hope...

The voting in scotland was designed to stop any party winning an overall majority. The snp came within 1 seat of doing that. They are by far the most popular party. As to the problems in Scotland? The Daily Mail constantly has gone on about vaccinations being behind in Scotland. They never were. Now...

Re: If only I'd warned...

If we eventually examine the wastes this government made on Covid suppliers, who were paid many times the going rate for things… plus the ludicrous money paid to Serco for Test and Trace and more…. Then the NHS could be sailing by now. But then again, Tory party funds would be struggling.
