Can I also point out that we have done Jezza to death and should wait for the report which will be out shortly?

Oh. Corbs must be in the news then.

Wonder if Dorries has resigned yet. Or if Hancock has apologised for lying yesterday.

I genuinely don't have a clue about HanCock (first for the block), as I didn't listen to any briefing or news yesterday after lunch? What has he supposed to have lied about?

As For Dorries, I have just read the news on that... She tweeted something that was fake and Starmer said he was satisfied with the actions taken by the party and the MPs, who have deleted the tweets.
"There are more important things in the world to concentrate on than a doctored video of me,"
What is your point?

Partly just that she’s a stupid **** who in her role should be doing better than acting as a rabid attack dog. There are enough sycophantic backbenchers for that. She should probably be taken outside and shot for being utterly useless but a resignation would do for now. Very kind of Starmer though to let her off so lightly.

Hancock claimed they’d put a “protective cloak” around care homes. An interesting way of describing the strategy of leaving old folk to die.

The point however was that the conversation always seems to shift to something random about Labour when the Tories **** something up.

So she tweeted something that was fake? How many Labour MP's mocked Boris in the hospital or missing the first PMQs with Mr Starmer? I think it was a stupid thing to do but resigning? As for Starmer, he wants to come across as Mr nice and forgiving. Goldie is spot on in that Starmer won't say too much just complain after the fact.
This thing with the care homes is also a bit weird. No one can prove (not always) how and who spreads this disease. There is just as much chance of Family/care workers/employees./staff infecting old people. It didn't all come from being sent home from the hospital... however testing has been key and sadly not enough testing capacity was managed at the beginning. They have learned hopefully.

No one really knew Watford. WHO gives out warnings all the time and they don't always get things right?
Just remember we are still living with SARS MERS and other coronaviruses... we have been for years but no one cares. People talk about deaths take this onboard this is UK:
Between December 2014 and March 2015 there were 44,000 excess winter deaths, 2.5 times higher than the record low of the previous winter, and the highest number since the winter of 1999/2000 when flu levels were very high.
Other than poor relatives did anyone care or close the country down?
How many people died yesterday... say 384 that is (if my maths is right) 6 deaths for every 1.7 million people.
The country needs to get back on its feet. Agree mistakes have been made but not as much as people bitch daily about.

You and I both know they’ll have learned **** all and have no intention of doing so.
