PM Boris is trying the impossible, keeping the UK healthy and getting the Economy moving - Covid - 19 Update - Health


Lets Get Real:

The PM has a problem, his backbenches see the images of the Great Depression coming back, and they want to see the economy going, while the hack politicians in Scotland and Wales want the English tax payer to carry on paying for their employees to get wages and sit on their backsides and worry.   The PM has been very cautious, the up - lifting of the lockdown was conditional on the Rate, that being the number of infections that can happen in the community.  The Labour Party under its new effective leader see a weakness, thus expect them to be become more political.  One has to say the PM did not look great, the eyes gave the impression that he has not fully recovered from his close shave with COVID - 19.   One the whole a  good speech, the big decisions will happen in three weeks time, there is the argument ( by some ) that the Government should have taken no action, and let the virus burn itself out, as was the case with the Spanish flu in 1918.   The cost in deaths made that path a no go area, tough time to be a British PM.
