It appears the UK population disagree with you as confidence in Blojo has plummeted.
Of course I wouldn't have expected anything else from you though I'm sure the families of many of the deceased wouldn't say his government were doing an "Excellent" job, especially those who had family members infected in care homes through the negligence of the government.
The problem is everyone has opinions but it's actual facts that are important and Blojos government has been shown to behind the curve since day one and has also lied and misled to cover their own inadequacies.

I would hardly call it a plummet.

Nobody would say:

This graphic doesn't make sense.

Ok, it isn't a flattering picture of the man, which is a typical, cheap, media stunt. However, it lists a proven trackrecord of success, then tries to present them as failures.

"Vote Leave" were the underdogs, and not expected to win. This guy wrote an app to enable the Vote Leave lobby to succeed against the odds.

In 2019, the Tories were a shit shower, and yet, thanks to this guy's modelling skills, they were able to win the election.

So would you trust him to write a tracking app?

Well, I would trust him more than whoever did the modelling for Remain or the Labour Party.

Now, I have no idea as to the quality of the actual app, but if you are going to attack somebody's ability, you should cite examples where they have failed, not succeeded against the odds.

Lyrics from Gimme Some Truth

I'm sick and tired of hearing things from
Uptight short sided narrow minded hypocrites
All I want is the truth, just give me some truth

I've had enough of reading things
By neurotic psychotic pigheaded politicians
All I want is the truth, just give me some truth
No short-haired, yellow-bellied
Son of tricky dicky's
Gonna mother hubbard soft soap me
With just a pocket full of hopes
Money for dope, money for rope

No short-haired, yellow-bellied,
Son of tricky dicky's
Gonna mother hubbard soft soap me
With just a pocket full of hopes
Money for dope, money for rope

I'm sick to death of seeing things from
Tight-lipped condescending mama's little chauvinists
All I want is the truth, just give me some truth
I've had enough of watching scenes from
Schizophrenic…

I don't think its about whether or not he can write a good or bad app, it's about how the contract was awarded; a loophole was used so it didn't have to go out to bid and was given directly to his company.
They don't even hide the corruption these days.

The main heading of this thread was about the Cypriot President........

Boycott

Who are you having a pop at, the lying, corrupt politicians who are complicit in the unnecessary deaths of thousands of our fellow citizens or the concerned people who are highlighting people who are making fortunes off the backs of the sick and dying?
