Not like I didn't warn you a few posts above yours.

Yep Theo. It just corroborates a lotta the good comments and warnings that have been mentioned on the likes of this OP. It looks like lotsa folk are "sleepwalking" into this Tory conspiracy to foist their undemocratic ideology upon the country.

100k Covid cases announced today. At least Javid has got one thing right. Cue for a work meeting with wine and nibbles to celebrate.

This is someone darn unda talking about their Government. Why does it sound so familiar?

"Personal responsibility?
For politicians does that come before or after professional responsibility?
Now I know that there is a plethora of strategies to avoid professional responsibility for anything negative, as I have scrutinised the modus operandi of this PM, his government as well as the MP’s within it.
Firstly there is the ability to consistently lay fault at someone else irregardless of if they are even remotely responsible, it is called the Blame Bill technique.
Then there is the tactic of having your office staff have culpability for any improper actions that you have put your name to or signed off on, this is colloquially known as the “Bridget does an Angus” gambit.
There is the ‘memory loss’ technique where you continually pretend it didn’t happen despite any overwhelming evidence to the contrary. This can also be used in conjunction with the Blame Bill technique.
There is the public service big government approach which lays fault at the bureaucracy that they themselves are in charge of, a double jeopardy sort of responsibility shifting that is favoured by the rural Nationals MP’s.
Come on First Dog, this mob is too skilled at professional responsibility denial to be even remotely bothered with personal responsibility and anyway, all that would happen if they were found to have some responsibility for anything is a sideways demotion and later promotion to another area of non-expertise."

Apparently we are now going to set up "Field Hospitals" in Supermarket car parks as the completely useless Nightingale Hospitals that were set up in generally warm, or at least the ability to be warm, big rooms that were erm, previously known as Exhibition Centres were dismantled after our Government spaffed £millions constructing them. They were at least inside. I've no idea who, if anyoene payed the heating bill. As far as I'm aware, any staff filmed "on-set" were actors in fancy dress. Erm, when we are 40,000 (and the rest) short of warm bodies in the NHS, spaffing £millions on vanity projects that line your mates pockets isn't really going to win friends (other than yours) and influence people that cast votes (well, normally it wouldn't).

So who exactly is going to act as Doctor and Nurse in freezing cold tents when there weren't any available Doctors or Nurses to staff the Nightingales, let alone A&E and otherwise other busy hospital wards? Do we assume that patients will now die of hypothermia while waiting to be treated for Covid or anything else that A&E can't cope with or do we just give them all a hot water bottle and wait until pleurisy or double pneumonia kicks in and kills them off?

If they weren't so busy killing off our (mostly older, but not all) population you would swear blind as an outsider these bastards we call a Government used to haunt and enjoy being part of the German gulags.

Apparent current wait for an emergency ambulance can be anywhere close to 9 hours and then you spend a similar amount of time outside A&E waiting to be admitted. You might die while you are waiting but don't let that stress you out.

This is not the fault of the Ambulance Service but don't let HM Government persuade you otherwise.

Nurses association say England should have more restrictions brought in as situation is out of control, scientists say the same, Boris and his cronies disagree, shocking stuff going on.

And his popularity rating plummeting even more!! I wonder why eh?

Meanwhile Sunak "at it" in trying to plunder pension money. I call this "legal robbery" initiated by corrupt government. We jail people who rob shops, banks etc. Yet these people are allowed to "get away with it" and we're talking about a helluvah lot more money than these run of the mill thieves. The previous plunder in swapping the well established RPI pension adjustment for the less generous CPI calculator was again a robbery deemed legal by political chancers who were found out fairly early by people like myself who "worked the system" in contracts etc and knew the difference and the fact they were trying to "rip off" pensioners, but doing it in an underhand manner.

Pillockus extrordinarius

Bodgit, I quote.

"The government is acting to protect critical national services, keep supply chains open, and fortify our NHS to withstand the pressures ahead.

We’ve identified 100,000 critical workers, in areas from food processing to transport to our border force, and from 10 January we’ll be rolling out lateral flow testing for all these workers, available on every working day.

We’ll be sending testing kits directly to these organisations and liaising with them on the logistics."

So absolutely nobody in the NHS then? “I just think we have to get through it as best as we possibly can”.
The buffoon is a horses arse. Of course nobody in our "free" press or TV journalism picks up on this in case they are sacked for questioning the bleeding obvious.

I think Carey must have told him to get a proper haircut and start changing his dress sense! It still disnae work!! One can logically conclude that such dodgy characters need a lot more desirable attributes to have any chance of "stopping the rot".

Her Maj's Liar-in-Chief, aka Bodgit our PM, strikes out yet again. Beginning to think Labour might not have the best Leader too at the moment and the top two might want to swap jobs. She runs rings round the ham-shanker, every time she takes him on.
