So all restrictions will be lifted………….hmmmmmm! I know we will in the fullness of time have to live with Covid and I myself have said clearly in the past this must happen but my inbuilt cynicism spidery sense tells me this is a bid to be popular and try to deflect from the controversy that surrounds Johnson and his government? It seems each time Johnson tries to take our attention away from the many misdemeanours he has committed, more revelations are revealed that firmly put him back in the spotlight.
I am taking part in a programme on Sky called The Great Debate, its broadcast on Monday sometime between 6 and 8. Next weeks topic is Do we get the leaders we deserve? Well I have written a number of times on this subject and the answer very simply is yes we do. We live in an age of cult personality and i suspect tha is the dominating factor when it comes to elections for who the country thinks should be PM and the party in government? Jeremy Corbin had his faults and certainly his reluctance to stamp anti-semitism in the Labour Party did him no favours but he was a genuine politician whose sole aim was to do his best for the country. Now he may not be your cup of tea ( he wasn’t mine) but he did seem only interested in trying to win on the issues. When you compare his personality to Boris he had no chance. Boris was seen as the cheeky chappie who promised everything and had no intention of delivering any of it. He fooled enough of the public, even though they may well have been aware of his record and his bumbling blustering act, persuaded not only his party but the electorate as well! Be careful what you wish for!
Stay well
