    Wow missed that one. Gordon brown was probably renowned as having handled it better than any other chancellor or like in the world. But labour got the blame for bankrupting the country. He also said there was no need for austerity. Conservatives actually admitting it wasn’t the fault of the Labour Party now . But lots of muggins believed the ***** they were spouting at the time.

    I know what. we’ll put tories in they’ll not create a massive debt. By fleecing the needy and not the rich.

    Read what I’ve put! I’ve not defended anything... but you can’t hear anything like that because your mind is already made up... I thought you’d blocked me anyway because I didn’t agree with you before? Head in the same for anything you don’t agree with remember... mi grandad voted that way, etc.

    Did he? In who’s opinion. I was merely making this a similar statement. It’s easier after the event to stand on your pedestal shouting “someone else would have been less **** at this.”

    In most of the worlds economists opinions at the time that’s who, . Not standing on any pedestal. You made the statement labour were bad at dealing with it not me. I was just responding. To your I’ll informed opinion.

    How am I political point scoring?!? I don’t give a shot about any political party and have indeed voted for 4 different ones in my lifetime. Unlike yourself, I can see other points of view. And if I could be arsed, I’d go through your posts and just point out the cheap digs, bias, nonsense. When anybody questions you, or suggests that anything against one of your posts... or even suggests a more balanced view, you’re on them like a rabid dog.

    Like I said, I can’t be arsed.. and I don’t have a party agenda to uphold. Please put me on ignore again.

    I’m not Ill informed, but still disagree with you. Sorry if that really bothers you, but hey opinions. We’re all allowed them.

    And if you actually read my initial post you’ll see it’s like saying that another party would have handled it better. Not particularly saying that they handled it poorly. Enjoy your night.

    Think you need to look at your headline quote again that I responded to. Implying they dealt with it badly. Doesn’t bother me one bit. But at least quote something as fact. So when the worlds best economists said he was dealing with the situation better than any other. You see that how you want. I see it as dealing with a situation better than most. Didn’t say he’d mended it. What I will say ( my parting shot. So you can indeed have the last word) what Marlon posted. Was, what lots of the world. never mind journalists in this country were saying. That This Tory handling of covid has been based on lies and incompetence. Opinions don’t bother me at all distorting the facts do. Why do you seek to defend the indefensible.
    I know exactly where Marlon stands. And don’t like everything he posts for the sake of it. I don’t even know the man.
    You liked an Einstein moment from Redrum. if Marlon had come out with a similar comment, he’d have got the same reply.

    Deaths keep coming down but daily infections continue to have leveled off. The theory that it's mutating to a weaker form could be true. Also that Vitamin D helps protect you as now the weather warms up.

    Absolute rubbish , I blocked you because you reverted to name calling as you just have done again on you post to someone else .
    You have defended by deflection and not answering the initial post .
    Course my minds made up I thought they were a **** shower and now they’ve confirmed with the first bit of proper governance they’ve been faced with and arrogantly ignored .

    I’m on them like a rabid dog ? If they can’t be defended they didn’t ought to post .
    Imo because I question your posts you fly off the handle and take everything as an attack .
    If your not defending them then why come on and try and change the subject?
    Seems your the rabid dog cis you can’t make your point.

    I think he’s infatuated with me lol.
    I blocked him once when he started name calling and trying to say I’d said things in posts that I hadn’t and he’s done it again , he can’t make his point and he’s the one that flies off the handle when he can’t .

    Show me a post where I’ve called you anything derogatory, without following such a remark from yourself. You are deluded my friend...

    Whilst saying your leading economist talks facts, and my leading economist doesn’t is pie in the sky. Which was my original comment when I said the tories had cacked up with COVID, but whilst some would think it’s because they are evil c’s. My opinion is that they were misinformed, lacked focus, made mistakes and could have done better. I’m not distorting any facts, I’m making my opinion. Looking back through, its then a lot of back slapping from the other parties like that’s what they wanted to happen, as if they’d have done better... maybe they would? But question why they would and I’m suddenly an evil Tory prck, when I’m not a party person and have said before, voted for many different parties.

    I have learned things on here, and been able to see other points of view. But I do struggle to do that with certain members, who just want to force their opinion upon me. You’re not one of those, and I can have a respectful disagreement and discussion.
