    Perhaps not missed several COBRA meetings whilst canoodling in his Chevening country retreat with his bit of fluff.?
    Johnson's aides were told to keep their briefing papers short and cut the number of memos in his red box if they wanted them to be read., perhaps Leer Dammer might have read them knowing it was a time of crisis?

    However you dress it up, Johnson has been found out to be totally lacking any ability to grasp a situation, any ability to actually lead the country, and is surrounded by similar people.

    Lets be honest the last few exchanges just show the abject choice the electorate face from both political parties. Front benchers who are innumerate.

    But all your likes are from Tory influenced posters who have done just that against Corbyn.
    All the people who have called out posters against this govt are now the ones saying it political point scoring you must see that ,
    I know it’s nothing personal from you Mario as you’re a long time poster whom I respect even though our politics are miles apart and it’s nothing personal on my part as regards your post.
    I very rarely start political threads but I do post in them a lot because as such to answer the posters as the people who have liked your posts who have politically point scored but don’t like us answering back .
    No disrespect to you Mario but I notice you never
    Pull the posters up who bad mouthed Corbyn that’s not a criticism but an observation and because of your political al leanings . Even this post to me try as you might to disguise it as non political it is as usual the anti labour posters are ignored .
    What this govts have done with the NHS is a scandal that’s been called out on this board for years and now we see what that damage has done and people don’t want to hear it but it will be seen for what it is a political scandal.

    We
    eventually won when we ousted the Tories and placed it with a coalition govt headed by Tory outcast Churchill.

    The worst Tory leader in a generation (May) best Corbyn who was arguably at his peak at the time in an election. Sure she lost the majority she had prior to the unnecessary election but still won.

    My point is that I don't think the press had to do much to affect Corbyn's chances of being elected and I don't think Boris was needed either.

    I've not seen it but I have been listening on LBC and they are saying he is denying these accusations. Of course he would deny it, that's the nature of politics.

    Just clarify my response here @mansfield_red which you seem to have ignored. I am actually tyketastic and I changed my username.
    That's why I liked the post he was responding to me correcting his figures.
    Feel it's best I explain this if you are going to be looking back any other posts if that's your thing;)
    But I will openly admit i didn't think things would be as bad as they are. By mid march I did. But back in January early feb i had no idea. Sadly i was wrong.

    No I haven't, I liked a post that was critical of the way that Corbyn led the Labour party over Brexit. I was no fan of Corbyn, I thought he was an absolute disaster and completely ineffectual as a leader of the opposition but that is different from being blindly critical of the Labour party, which I have never been.

    I think you’d be very wrong there Mario the press had a hell of a lot to do with Corbyns defeat .
    He was way ahead on the opinion pols and very popular untill the press campaign aided by an attempted coup by light blue labour and he still took May almost to the post so much so she had to do a deal with the devil (DUP) till the anti Corbynistas got their act together and bombarded the media outlets both social,tv and press with lie after lie .

    Of course, if you supported Corbyn then you were immune from the press bias (or too clever to believe it) whereas anyone who didn't support him were gullible fools who religiously read the press and believed every word printed.

    So we've gone full circle re: the veracity of the press.

    If you don’t think there’s was a Media campaign against him that’s fine that’s your prerogative.
    If you don’t think he got record number of votes for a labour leader in 2017 that’s fine . It imo that’s factless political point scoring so who’s going full circle now ?

    I haven't said that any of it isn't true.
