The British public solidly behind the government 15:03 - Apr 18 with 7370 viewsOccasional_Showers

In the interests of truth and accuracy 66% of the British public support the government. Once again the left are shown to be all mouth and are not representative of public opinion. I think this needs pointing out as they are currently in overdrive trying to sow division and lower morale in the NHS.

Apart from the money, yes please. Are you saying that poor people’s lives are expendable but if you can afford the fees your life is worth greater consideration? As for workshy and lazy teachers, although you haven’t met them and have no idea what they do, have been asked to do and maybe cannot do due to certain circumstances, you have obviously decided that a large amount are. You have also decided that they must be lazy and workshy because some of them wZnt assurances about the safety of their pupils and themselves before returning to work. This dispute the fact that MPs are not returning to work because they can’t sociially distance themselves either. Although you have zero qualifications you know for a fact that it totally safe for children, teachers and the parents who do the school runs to go back to normal. Anyone not doing so is workshy and lazy. Not once have you accepted that perhaps some people are not convinced of the timing and are worried about their safety or that of their pupils. We still don’t know if children can transfer the virus to their teachers, parents or, god forbid, elderly grandparents. We were late in locking down and closing schools, why is it such a problem for us to delay opening schools until we have more data on the safety, and how to do it properly, from other countries who have just started opening schools again? This government seem to have a real problem with siting down with people and agreeing on a way forward. Perhaps it is a Cummings thing? If they want to move forward with the confidence of the country, apart from the odd few people who think it is wise to follow their directives blindly (because that has worked out so well so far) perhaps they should sit down and try and get a consensus for a way forward? Firing out directives with their appalling track record so far really isn’t wise.


OK I am going to reply one more time. It appears by your wall of text with no paragraphs that you are getting angry and on the assumption you are 'old' , I wouldn't want to be the cause of a cardiac arrest.

Difference between Private Schools and State Schools - Eton are still offering a full timetable of curriculum and parents are still paying £15,000 a term for this.

Those who teach the 1.2 million kids who are getting 1 item of work or less a day are most definitely lazy and workshy. You won't change my opinion on that.

MP's I am sure would love to return to work but left wing bed wetters such as yourself would cry as loudly as you could about it, just like they did when Boris got the virus. I haven't heard of a single MP that said they don't want to be in the chamber, from any side.

Children have 1 in 5.3 million chance of dying. 2 ( TWO! ) children have died from Covid-19 in the last 4 months. It won't even be in the top 10 of child related deaths during that period.

Best hope children can't transfer the virus to grandparents as when people need to go back to work to put food on the table, that's exactly where the children will be heading whilst teachers refuse to go back to school.

No I don't think it's unsafe for pupils and don't accept people genuinely think it is unsafe for pupils to go back. There is no scientific evidence to suggest otherwise.

I think you're getting muddled up. It is the unions who have told their teachers not to engage in conversations with the government, not the other way round.

Members of the scientific community have criticised the UK government for its handling of the coronavirus pandemic.

Nobel Prize-winning scientist Sir Paul Nurse, chief executive of the Francis Crick Institute and patron of scientists for Labour, said the country had "not been getting it right".

"I get a sense the UK has been rather too much on the back foot, increasingly playing catch-up, firefighting us through successive crises," he said.

He added there needed to be "a much clearer publicly-presented strategy".

Sir Ian Boyd, who is a member of the government's scientific advisory body Sage, said he would have liked to see the government act "one or two weeks earlier" suggesting "it would have made quite a big difference" to the death rate.

Responding to Sir Paul on Radio 4's Today programme Northern Ireland Secretary Brandon Lewis said: "We do follow the best advice that is out there from both the scientific advisers, our chief medical advisers and the teams there - but ultimately it is the ministers who make decisions."

Little wonder his popularity is plummeting. It is coming thick and fast from all directions. The poor handling of the pandemic, ignoring his own advice and picking up the virus himself, the Acuri situation which isn’t going away, Cummings, being shown up as ill prepared in PMs Q&A, the economy tanking, poor progress in the Brexit talks, constantly missing his own targets, the many u-turns and miscommunications, being ignored by the rest of the Union....he isn’t having the best of starts in his attempts to emulate his hero, Sir Winston Churchill. Perhaps he should lower his sights a bit? There are plenty of chubby comedians he could compete with.

By “getting on with it” do you mean brown nosing your boss Dune? You must be gutted. After the hard work you have done bigging up the government and being their chief trumpet blower, you barely have the wind to blow a peep from a tin whistle. Perhaps if you hadn’t made such a big fuss at the beginning you wouldn’t be such an easy target now? At least you are now seeing what it is like to be at the end of snide comments, something that you do with monotonous regularity. Now get back to sucking up to your boss.

But they are not. Look at the graph at the bottom and see what has happened since 1st May. A significant closing of the gap - in 23 days. By the time of the next set of elections in May 2021 that could be a very interesting graph.

And before I get accused of being a rabid left winger, I do not support any political party but I keep a wary eye on all of them.

If you had any kind of awareness about you you would notice that Starmer’s popularity is growing whilst Johnson’s is shrinking. There is still a long way to go but things are changing. Maybe the Americans might even wake up and kick out their blond haired charlatan. Starmer has a lot of work to do in order to remodel Labour into an electable party, but he has made a good start. Of the two of them at the Dispatch Box, he looks far more like a Prime Minister. People who wouldn’t vote Labour because of Corbyn are warming to Starmer. If I were you I would be very worried about the next election.

Whatever Starmer does he is still the leader of a party controlled by Momentum. With MP’s hand picked by Momentum. With Momentum members making up the ranks. The message that needs to be got out is that he is just a puppet. He’s a Blairite leader of a Corbynite party. He is just as dangerous as Corbyn, perhaps more dangerous as he wants to fool people into thinking he has the power to return Labour to the centre when he clearly does not have the power to anything unless Momentum give him the ok. He is just a more presentable face for far left extremism.

So you have a problem with Starmer allegedly being a “puppet” but no problem at all in Johnson being a puppet? Interesting.

As for the use of the word “dangerous” in connection with a political party, you sound more like a Daily Mail editorial every day. But as we are playing that game, do you really think that the Labour Party would do anything as dangerous as sanctioning the placement of elderly covid victims from hospital into care homes? And let’s look back over the years and find the other dangerous Labour activities, like bringing in the NHS and the formation of the Welfare State. What utter, terrible dangerous bastards these people are.

(PS. The ten years of Tory austerity apparently was responsible for 130,000 deaths. That sounds pretty dangerous to me).

So long as you are ok that’s all right then? So much for being in this together. Your attitude is precisely why Tories get a bad name. I also notice that Boris is happy to call out workshy, lazy teachers but leaves a brown nosed, benefit grabbing fellow Tory apologist like you alone. I haven’t taken a penny from the government and I have not booed teachers but you carry on making out you have the moral high ground. I trust that you will donate much of your unearned £5k to local food banks?
