They're a shambles and the nation is sick and tired of that buffoon wheeling himself out to address the nation, flanked by tweedle dumb and tweedle dumber. 
 
The nation is crying out for anyone, I mean anyone, politically competent to come forward because the leaders of all the parties in all the nations are useless.

 The issue here is, who is politically competent in the existing Tory party to take over from Boris
 
If no one, we then have how long to a general election? 
 
and in the meantime, like you said no increase in capacity

 It will be genuinely interesting to see how that transposes into hospital admissions in the next 7 days or so.

			Just had a phone call from my doctor.  The situation is now so serious that she is to send out a nurse tomorrow as a matter of urgency to give myself (and other vulnerable people in the area) the booster and flu jab together. 
 
I've seen/heard reports that the booster jab makes people feel terrible and weak for 24 hours afterwards.  This makes me nervous, but I have no other choice if I have any hope of surviving.  I'll try and post my experience of this if I am able.

			My niece who was double jabbed has today tested positive. 
 
She's going to the Drive-through PCR test at the airport. 
 
So no seeing my family before Christmas day then.

			First one I've bothered to watch for a long time . . .  purely to see how they filled the time   
I now know that:
 
A minimum of 15 people are in hospital  with Omicron.
 
One person has died  with Omicron.
 
apart from that it's been waffle waffle jabs, blah blah booster, waffle blah vaccinations, blah waffle booster, blah waffle blah . .

 Oh no, poor man.  I feel pretty awful myself due to the current state of my health as it is, but I have no choice.  The doctor says it would likely kill me off if I caught it.

 How could they have increased the capacity in two years - it takes 3 to 4 years to train a nurse, and  8-10 to train a doctor, and no one has found a way to automate diagnosis and treatment?
 
Not being argumentative, just wondering what they could have done in the last two years to increase capacity - it's no good having more beds if we don't have the staff to treat the patients in them.
