And? You do realise that reading this kind of report is what he's paid for?


And also, he'll almost certainly have had access to it before it was published.

It really is. A decent media would hold them to account, but the media in this country is in league with the Tories or too scared (in the case of the Beeb) to speak truth to power. The public are, for the most part, too disinterested to care and many seem to find Johnson likeable and see that as reason enough to overlook the lying and incompetence. The country is about as broken as I can remember it being.

No, sorry.

Competent ministers (yes I know!) ensure they are over all the detail of the biggest public health failing since WW2.

His excuse so far this morning is he wasn’t health secretary when it happened

Has he yet blamed his Civil Servants for either (a) producing too long a report; and/or (b) not including pictures for him to colour in?

The detail yes, but he can be over the detail without reading every word. As I said, he needs to read the report in full urgently but, with the press clamouring for a response, he needs to come forward and say something. Admittedly, what he said is trying to absolve blame which the natural approach of this government.

Says a lot when I long for the days of Cameron and Osborne.


The report will have been given to him with an executive summary and 'lines to take' on the salient points.

That would cover it all.

A decent Minister would, however, read it all anyway.

How can anyone justify continuing to support this miserable crew?


Because the opposition are useless as well! I won’t be voting Tory by the way … I simply can’t bring myself to vote Labour and in that lies the problem for a lot of people. Keir has flattered to deceive so far. Always been a Labour voter; Blair, Brown but now? Nope.

To be fair, Blair and Brown had power at the time. Starmer can’t even marshall an opposition on vague centrist lines.

What on earth are you on about?

If you are going to hide behind the terminology, we will try again.

When was the last election win in the UK for a properly left wing party as opposed to a mid / left one?

We’ve never had a mid/left one.

When was the last time we had an objective discussion about the country’s needs?

When was the last time we didn’t have a sh/t political media?

When was the last time that we looked at our genuine centre-left neighbours and worked out why they’ve overtaken us in living standards and productivity?

I’m glad you’re raising these points.

Corbyn.

That didn't work out so well did it?

But if you want to argue about what is or isnt "hard" rather than address the point, then there isn't much to gain here is there?
