A terrible thing to say in one way, I know, in view of the c60,000 deaths in this country linked to Coronavirus, but if the pandemic had come a few months earlier we might have been spared this appallingly inept government and, with that, maybe tens of thousands of deaths, particularly in care homes.A National Government would surely have been forced to replace the former minority Tory government, and the Labour MPs might have effectively removed Corbyn as leader of their party, certainly in Parliamentary terms. Starmer as, effectively, the country's leader in these circumstances, with Gauke as deputy, might have seen a similar outcome to what has been achieved in France, even though the latter concede they've made many mistakes. Johnson is as dangerous a narcissistic lunatic as that monstrosity over the pond, or would be if his domain was any bigger. Just as well (for the E.U.) that we are leaving it, because otherwise we'd be a 'world-beating' basket case member.
You might gather I shan't be voting Conservative at the next election, any more than I'd ever do, but Labour has never come near to winning in my constituency, so my vote might not count.
