@stephfoxwell4620 Well, what would you have done if you were responsible for the health of the nation during an outbreak of an unknown killer virus? What would you have done more perfectly, tell me? If he had have let everyone wander the hospital wards freely and the virus spread more he would still face criticism! He's damned if he does and he's damned if he doesn't.
It was the virus that killed people, not Boris Johnson. Some logistics are easy to criticise with "perfect" hindsight, but the nation forgets that the PM nearly died himself in intensive care.
Boris has become a scapegoat for everyone's grievances, anger and personal grief.
I am a terminally ill kidney patient with Amyloidosis, and I was hospitalised three times with covid due to my poor immunity on chemo etc., and the medical staff would not allow me any visitors. I had to wave from my hospital window. However, if visitors were allowed I may not have survived at all, as I had to be surrounded by plastic in an isolation ward. I didn't blame Boris.
The insistence of my family and friends to see me would have killed me and worn me out.
What happened to your father is indeed a tragedy, and both Boris and I could have died too.
But to call a man just because he was in responsible office a "vile little man" and a "sworn enemy" is a very embittered stance to take. If you were PM would you have saved all lives?
Some are being very unfair towards Boris, and hatred and bitterness will not help anything.
No matter who was PM the people would still be looking for someone to blame.
I think the people should be left to figure it out for themselves and sort out their own problems with their own decisions and then there will be no one to blame but their own ungrateful selves.
It is a thankless task being a British Prime Minister. It is a poisoned chalice whatever they do.
