But the hospitals are half empty? 25 million plus cancelled procedures in 7 months I know a chap who had heart surgery in carmarthenshire during lockdown, he was the only man in the ward throughout his stay In addition the fact they are putting covid patients in nhs wards has seen the virus spread throughout hospitals and has infected both patients and staff thus hitting staff numbers The whole point of spending billions on 40,000+ new hospital beds was to ease the pressure on the nhs, it has done nothing of the kind Further over 20,000 doctors and nurses were recruited or pulled out of retirement to fight this outbreak....Surely at least some of these could be staffed at the field hospitals. There are 1 million volunteers available to help with the various tasks involved in setting up and running these field hospitals. The govt in all 4 home nations has said virtually nothing about these field hospitals for several months thus leaving us all guessing

That's shocking if true. There have been other stories about this and SKS brought it up at PMQs this week so it is a known thing but are enough people listening? I am also sure there are decent Tories somewhere who must be disgusted as well.

That their corruption isn't a national scandal says something pretty damning about the state of our democracy at present. Or "democracy" so I can be edgy and cool.

Or if we go back to the recent story over charging consultants 6-8k a day for NHS track and trace which generated widespread outcry. And who was appointed the Tory anti-corruption champion in 2019? John Penrose, the husband of Dido Harding who is in charge of track and trace.

The return of foot in mouth disease.
"Boris Johnson 'called Scottish devolution disaster'" Wonder if we can go one day without something like this going on at the moment. Or is it just constant media gossip?

Looking at it from a Westminster perspective it has been a disaster. A totally fair comment in my mind. Devolved Government which the Labour party brought it did not equate, at that time, to Independence. They have already had a referendum which, at the time, was labelled a once in a generation vote yet that is all we hear from the Scottish government.

Boris is doing a better job campaigning for Scottish and Welsh independence than any of the leaders of those movements could ever do. I’m sure we’ll hear the SNP using this quote all through the election campaign, it’s absolutely gold dust for them.

I find it very hard to find facts at the moment in honesty with you. The BBC quickly shoves the completely unwanted Laura Kunessberg blog in your face (she is a one-woman army of self-promotion to make up for a lack of journalism skills). Maybe a better way is saying I wonder if this is the media getting sidelined or even distraction tactics from lockdown and that we are now getting very close to actual brexitting.

sorry gareth have to disagree,when wales went into circuit break they asked for furlough to carry on for the duration of it and westminster refused,when lockdown was announced in england he decided to carry it on,they look down on wales and scotland and have done for centuries.

If it is political/media distraction from the impending chaos I still think brexit will be, then you really do wonder what the future of Scotland and the Union is. On the other hand, nothing ever changes by staying the same - David Brent. I think I would prefer if he were in charge right now.
