Boris Johnson - unable to control his emotions.

View from America

What a nerve! People in glass houses and all that.

What are we supposed to do with this ‘view from America’?
Feel worse than we do.

JVT?

You can be authoritative without coming across as uncaring. JVT does it quite well.

When you apologise to people when you impose restrictions they immediately feel that they are being unfairly treated so it’s no wonder a lot of them ignore the guidelines. You tell them what they have to do (or not do) and then explain to them as simply as possible the reasoning behind it. I actually wish that someone like Jeremy Hunt was PM at the moment. Never thought I’d think that!

If Boris did 'man up' and maintain a 'stiff upper lip' he'd be accused of being heartless and uncaring.

It must be difficult to get the right balance.

Silly article.

“ There is no need for him to apologise for having to place restrictions on people in the time of a very contagious virus” totally agree and as I’ve said often before (sorry) although
I never voted Tory in my life I’d have preferred Mrs thatcher to have been in charge of this pandemic. She wouldn’t have fannied around !

The problem is that all the decent, intelligent Tories have already left of been forced out.

I think Johnson is telling the truth for once when he says how much he hates having to put restrictions on people. He has hated having to do it from day one. That is why all his decisions on dealing with the virus have been too little and too late.

He is at heart just a good time boy who just wants to have fun and he imagines everyone else is the same. And he nearly always ruffles up his hair before being on camera. It's the "clown" in him which he can't let go of.

There is no need for him to apologise for having to place restrictions on people in the time of a very contagious virus. It would be irresponsible to do otherwise. If he hadn't been so dilatory many lives may not have been lost and the NHS wouldn't be under as much pressure as it is now.

He is temperamentally unsuited to dealing with a crisis and is not prime minister material. He only got elected to "Get Brexit Done". Now he's managed that I hope he resigns and that the Tories can muster up someone capable of making tough decisions when they are needed to replace him.

I read that article.

I can absolutely see what she is saying.

If fact I shall never be able to I unsee it?
