So grateful to the bishop on ‘Thought for Today’ this morning. He quoted Abraham Lincoln:
“ I don’t like that man: I must get to know him better”.

I’m in a hospice. Great to know that family can visit me. I know it’s true because I got in a press release. I’ve listened to radio4 and they say I’m right because they’ve seen the press release too.
Do we have a government?

It has always been the raison d’etre of the NHS since Bevan brought into life. I ( unlike some who shoot their mouths off) have read the Beveridge report that preceded and predestined it. Treatment for all at the point of need come what may. Politicians? Pah!

We’ll get through it a lot quicker without you so just piss off and let some real grownups take command.

The PM is right - we must take action now to protect the NHS & save lives from this unprecedented pandemic.
We will get through this pandemic, together.
Thank you to all those in our NHS & social care for your tireless work in our national effort

Why doesn't the car industry speak out about the huge collapse in car sales that has occurred whilst we are still fully in the customs union and single market? What is their remedy for this?

Someone help me please. T,T&T was from the start said to be the key element in confronting the epidemic. Test as many as possible and track down the contacts of those infected and get all to isolate. So why hasn’t it appeared to work?

Let’s hope we get some answers before the next tranche of money gets shifted to the crones.

How did we get here? C19 and Brexit and the Economic plunge and our government is acting like a collective ‘Sorcerer’s Apprentice’. The big frightening difference is that the sorcerer isn’t coming back to clear up the mess.

Hard to believe and even harder to calculate how long BEFORE he ‘fell ill’ they were being minted.

If a number of universities have been able to set up their own testing centres, why can’t local authorities be funded to set up theirs? It is centralisation that is impeding testing. Local door knocking beats telephone tracing. There is still time to change.

For pity’s sake, Johnson ask for an extension beyond January 1. The economy is going down the Grand Canyon without a paddle and your duty is to protect this nation from disaster. Man up!
