Like I say, you were perfectly fine with it. I'm sure you will be if Johnson implements it too. That's how super cool you are.
Maybe I should listen to what Gavin from the Echo says in his next hard-hitting exclusive?
 
Oh Crap I have just seen London is getting more restrictions. :emoticon-0101-sadsm we all know how this is going to end.
 
To be fair I have Never said he was a fool for asking for a Lockdown. I said he was playing political politics with people's lives... which he is. Remember the Labour MP who said they should take full advantage of Covid?
I said he put Boris in a weird situation. However, I agree with what you say... which is what I said after the Starmer speech.

Is there anything Starmer can do that you won’t criticise? Imagine all the material you’d have if the Tories hadn’t spent the last eight months getting their mates rich and killing vulnerable people.

So all those companies that got the contracts are Tory? Is that what you are saying?
 
Bloody hell Ian King just said the reason that London Mayor SadDick Khan was not invited to any more COBRA meetings was that he leaked information after. <yikes>
Stupid big mouth twat! That's our National security.

There seems to be a lot of money being overspent for little return without any transparency on how businesses were selected and people with links to the government just happen to be winning a lot of these lucrative contracts. Many people will have died as a result.

It would be less of an issue if they picked people they knew would deliver efficiently and that proved to be the case.

That is not the question. You have accused the government of giving money to their mates. so I will try again

This will be fun... a simple Yes or No
 
Let yourself down again mate. Your sarcasm lets you down. Khan should not be let anywhere near future COBRA meetings.

Fortunately no one in the government has done worse or you could be accused of holding Labour to higher standards than the Party you’re a member of again.

The question doesn’t make sense. Define a ‘Tory’ company and I’ll let you know.
 
Tory donors will do...
I await to put you firmly back in your box

Unlikely really if history is anything to go by. Some ****ing gall to demand a straight answer out of anyone.

However, no, not every single penny spent will have been spent with some sort of corruption or pilfering in mind. A lot of pennies seem to be totally unaccounted for though with very little to show for it and often dreadful value for money when we do have something. Billions of pounds have gone somewhere for something.

Okay so the answer is No. That's good you said that Watford. Too much talk about this money/contracts going Tory mates when that's not true. probably quite a lot but not all.

Well that’s me back in my box.

There’s some corruption but as long as it’s not 100% of the money being spent then it’s all good. Brilliant.
