Yes that the opposition is crap

In fairness Bristle, the Tories won the election because the electorate looked at the Labour Party and thought, bugger that.

What on earth is wrong with this bloody virus don't they know that Jacinda Ardern is God and it isn't allowed to appear in that country

To be fair to her and New Zealand in general they have managed the virus very well. They had an outbreak earlier in the year, locked down straight away and nullified any advance. They seem to be doing the same again! Well done Jacinda Ardern!

I do know they have, but with a population of half that of London, it must be far easier to lock down that a country of 20 times that population, a lot of who think we shouldn't be locked down at all.

Agreed but the antivaccs etc. are totally wrong!

Sounds like you're making excuses for our failures & seem bitter towards NZ's success. Yes, their challenges were less difficult but we're also an island nation & made so many mistakes which they didn't make.

Your comment's tone is a bit bizarre. What exactly your point? We closed things down too late & we're still not properly shutting our borders. They also didn't have an inept leader who was shaking hands with people in a Corona ward in a calamitous attempt to show us he's not scared of the virus. Our country votes for these idiots though, it's utterly mad!!

Rather than making cheap shots & excuses for our failures, shouldn't we be learning from countries who do it right? Making bitter digs & using the minor failures of others to justify our disaster, isn't a very progressive way of thinking Bristle.

My goodness me, which part of the alternative to voting for that idiot would have been even worse. We can see it, handing the keys to Corbyn or Davey would have been a calamity.

I blame Harold Wilson.

You really should open your eyes to the real world, possibly stop reading The Guardian and get some proper information in your head.

It appears that being in an ethnic minority now gives one preferential access to vaccine treatment ; announced just today.

I think you're the one that needs to join the real world Bristle. You hide behind so much clear evidence, while justifying it by speculating that someone else wouldve done worse.

Just imagine you lived by that code. Imagine your was spending your money, beating you up & making you sleep on the floor. Would you say "She's still nicer than Hitler" to justify staying with her????

You talk rubbish, I don’t even need to answer your hypothetical question.

In Australia twelve people were vaccinated today.Vaccinations for the rest of the country starts tomorrow.

In the UK we're going to be asked 'where are your papers' in the future, it's like going back 80 years to WW2 and the Nazis
