    The gap in leadership, competency, & compassion between Nicola Sturgeon & Boris Johnson has never been wider than it is today. There's things I disagree with, but she takes responsibility & is honest about the challenges ahead. Given public trust is vital, that matters.

    The impression Johnson delivered? That he still has not learned that taking action early is what beats a pandemic. Contrast with Nicola Sturgeon, who has clearly done her homework. Only one of them is right, and every medical adviser knows which one it is.

    Just listened to an epidemiologist on with 200+ peer-reviewed articles say the virus is getting out of control, followed by Dominic Raab saying he’s got it all wrong. Who to believe?🤔

    If this is true then roughly according to the numbers I can find the income part would be 228.4 billion and the spending part would be 71.8 billion. You can't compare percentages of different numbers directly...

    Those attacking Denise Welch should remember she comes from the former steel town of devastated 40 years ago by the Tories. Thatcher promised to lift the axe from the steelworks if it turned a profit for three months running. It did but Tories lied & can't be trusted.

    Soon they will be sending Boris’s branded ‘plane ‘up’ to air-drop gold coins on our cities, towns, villages and countryside.
