Do I really have to repeat what I have been writing for what seems like forever? If you had even the slightest scintilla of trust in our Government then surely it has now evaporated? We are being governed by the worst sort of hypocrisy and the deceit is rampant! These so called leaders will say or blame anyone else in order to deflect responsibility. It is sickening how the misleading and incompetence has left the health of our country in such a mess! The pandemic is an unprecedented event and no government would have got all of it right but the blatant assertion that they did all they could to protect the public and particularly the more vulnerable section is a dereliction of care that is unforgivable. Yet this government motors on seemingly undisturbed and still riding high in the ratings! What have they got to do before the electorate to realise that are incompetent blustering fools? Wendy has personally heard many a tale of the mess that was made by the indecisive and muddled advice to care homes and hospitals from those who experienced it and sadly lost relatives who could have been saved! The care home we were her mother resides was free for some time because they took steps over and above the government guidelines, although Covid did eventually get in. Fortunately because of their own precautions the risk was minimal. 

This is just one area where this government has failed (vaccine aside). The headlong rush to leave the EU with a deal that was at best rubbish and at worst fudged into a disaster, has lead to the inevitable shortages that particularly the building industry is facing. No concrete, materials in short supply and even if this was not the case there is nobody left to carry out the work because they have all gone home! Tell me you have not noticed shortages of certain products in supermarkets? I went into Morrison’s on Wednesday to find there were no satsumas, I asked an assistant if they had any and she replied they had not for days and it was Spain’s fault. I refrained from any comment, which for me was quite an achievement! The was the feint hint that the shelves were not as full of the normal selection one is used too, I suspect it will get worse? Go on the internet and tell me whether all sizes are available or how many items are not in stock? Now of course the government are not responsible for Brexit, only the referendum and we voted to leave. The arguments about how and why that lead up to such a choice are no longer of any use, it’s done but this bunch are far short of all the promises and optimism they shouted about as we built up to the legal separation. Unfortunately there is no solution other than a complete radical overhaul of our democracy and capitalism, as I have written many times. The current first past the post system failed long ago. They say you get the representation you deserve. It does not reflect well on us that they are who we have chosen!

Stay well
