Nowhere - anywhere - have I ever said that.

I think most members of the public understand that this was an unprecedented situation in modern times and the government did its best.

Those who claim that the government response to the virus was ‘catastrophic’ want an inquiry now because they know very well that the statistics from other countries are not only suspect, but the number of deaths are going up substantially while ours have reduced to single figures.

Many consider the 28 day threshold suspect here - although covid will have already claimed the low hanging fruit in the first two waves - but that's for another thread

Some classic quotes during that marathon grilling. One of the best being

Quote:

On Boris Johnson and Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn as 2019 election options: “There are thousands of people in this country who could provide better leadership than either of those two.”

I'm not saying that everything Cummins said was true, but he was right here:

Quote:

"Right from the start we've tried to throw a protective ring around our care homes. We set out our first advice in February... we've made sure care homes have the resources they need" says Health Secretary, Matt Hancock.

Give over, you’re the biggest lockdown lover on here. More power to government, no matter what government, fits in with your Marxist leanings.

You admit it then.........only joking, not really, no just joking..........

I don’t know you personally, but based on what I know from interaction on this site, yes I’ve you down for a Marxist.

Hey, happy to be wrong, you can tell me where I’m wrong and point me to the posts where you’ve championed free market capitalism.

So if people left of centre are to be compared to Marxists does that mean you feel anyone to the right of centre (yourself included??) is a Fascist???.

He's certainly on the revolutionary scale, but perhaps not on the left of it.

Politicians: crap
High ranking Civil Servants: crap
Media: crap
