Urmstongran, in regard to your post @-10:29 today, the reason that hospitals do not employ sufficient staff is for the simple reason that they have been underfunded by Tory successive governments for the last nine years, supported in that action for a time by the Liberal Democrats.
Johnson has been a senior member of that Tory party throughout that period and also a failed senior government minister in that time
Therefore to state that Johnson is "new to the job" and therefore all the underfunding that has gone before under Tory governments has nothing to do with him is simply rediculas.
Remember how proudly the Tories spoke of Austerity as "the means" of ending Britains deficit. Well, Johnson was very much part of that austerity, but that is something he now hopes we have all forgotten now, but sadly for him, not so.
He lied in his reasons for being at that hospital yesterday.
He has lied in regards to searching for a solution to Brexit.
He lied in regards to his reasons for suspending parliament.
And he lied to the Queen on the same.
Johnson is a product of inherited wealth that paid for an Eton education, and out of that, he has a sense of entitlement that is second to none.
When he cannot get that entitlement as he sees it, he will always lie in an attempt to accomplish that.
The man is simply sickening.
