Personally, I understand that sentiment and agree with it to a point - i think supporting the people in power is important, but I also think that no-one is beyond scrutiny. If we all supported them and didn't hold them accountable, then it's a dangerous game and one the government would be happy with - they'd love to do what they want without any repurcussions.
I think there has to be a balance. You can support but pull people up when necessary, but you can also criticise but do it constructively with the aim of a greater good. It's a hard balance to strike.
True, but the repetitive sniping from the media is annoying me. I’d like to see and hear a few positives about what they are doing, not incessant negativity. It seems the only feel good news is how people are coping and how they are raising money.
As I said I have spoken to NHS staff who are very happy with the PPE supplies but we only hear about those who don’t have it. We need a bit more of the Dunkirk spirit with questions of course.
This virus is a crock of shit but let’s pull together and learn not play the blame game
I say this as an older person who totally accepts that if push comes to shove a younger person than me with a growing family should get priority if beds/ventilators are in short supply
