Hancock seems to have vanished. Patel is too doom and gloom. Rishi was yesterday. Raab is too scared. The business secretary is too posh. They may need to reboot Gove or Jenrick.

Only Rishi is coming out of this with any credit, who would have thought that.

The public do not like Gove or Jenrick so I do not think that is going to work
 
Exactly. How are we supposed to know how close we are to herd immunity if we can't test for it.
I reckon those antibody test kits will come from South Korea as they seem to have produced a good easy kit... however I can't imagine it being for a long time.
 
I also read today, that we sent a hige amount of PPE to China inJan/Early Feb...is that true anyone got a link please

He is being tipped as a future Tory leader. Agree, I have to admit the government hasn't put much charisma or reassurance into the briefings. They have made mistakes with some of the MP's they have stuck up there.

If they’re going for damage limitation they might have to send out Sharma and hope everyone falls asleep.
 
I just spent £10 in the corner shop on a pack of 10 totally useless masks. They look like J-Cloths with a bit of elastic attached and probably cost the retailer no more than £1. Ridiculous and worthless, but I got them so that I would be able to continue using public transport when the next pointless restriction is imposed..
Doubtless I will join the herd as well when the whip comes down. I would like to wear one which qualifies as a mask but is patently and obviously not fit for purpose.
what I would love to see are the figures showing how many have survived the virus....
Yeah, any idea why we, seemingly alone, do not publish these? My next door neighbours have recovered, so that’s two. Oh wait, they never officially had it because they weren’t tested, so they don’t count.

Not just the uk
Look at all those other big countries that don't count the recovered

Looks like
UK
Netherlands
Botswana
Haiti
St kitts
Turk's and caicos
Png
Western sahara
Don't have the time for collecting those numbers
