Populism bit rubbish isn’t it?

[Derek Hardballs]

Just an observation from here to Brazil via the US.

[EastMidsBaggie]

The very people they proclaim to stand for are being allowed to die in vast numbers prematurely by those charlatans and liars.
No real surprise at the countries topping the death tolls.

I was about to post to this effect.  I find it rather surprising that the failure to impose lockdown early and the desire to lift it early (in my opinion) would seem to impact (or kill if you would) large numbers of a demographic that is essentially the base of their support. This seems somewhat counter-intuitive or is there indeed a "cunning plan" behind all this?

Yes there is a plan - to get the economy going so we don't go bankrupt I Guess? People will continue to die from this awful virus like they do other ones, but we have to get on with living our lives.

What a leader...

Boris accuses Keir Starmer of using misleading Cornonavirus statistics.

Keir Starmer responds with: The figures that the Prime Minister says are inadvertently misleading are from the slide at his press conference yesterday.”

He seems to be trashing Boris at every PMQ but isn’t being shown to the country in the news.  Damn bias leftie media.

Labour need a huge publicity campaign pointing out the never ending lies and bumbling idiocy of both Boris and the cabinet in general.  They need to find their own Dominic Cummings if you will, and I know how depressing that sounds, as it’s the only way to reach the masses.

Socialism is too Derek, But you wont agree with that

[baggy1]

But there's next to no chance of getting pure socialism into power in the UK, the word gets used far to loosely when describing the Labour party. However populism is alive and well and we are seriously paying the price for it in cold hard cash and lives.

Socialism has and does cost far more cash and lives, yet escapes censure.
