Is the UK Government doing enough to lessen the spread of Covid-19?SLOW!! Being country leader is more than bumbling on TV and hiding for weeks on end. It´s about leadership and a whole host of qualities &skills that Johnson does not possess, - Maybe compare the leadership in countries like Nez Zealand, South Korea, Taiwan, Australia, Greece, Portugal etc and the results.ViewDate:

Is the UK Government doing enough to lessen the spread of Covid-19?i am watching this farce from Spain, and it has been a slow motion car crash. The day Boris went on GMB and told you about the great "herd immunity" social experiment, silver surfers were thrown to the wolves and i told my family in the UK to take extra precautions. The British public has been aware since the Tories were voted in that the NHS was being starved to death and readied to be privatised. With Brexit you managed to force 10.000 EU staff to leave resulting in the NHS seriously understaffed. Johnson has left staff underprotected and under resourced. I believe you have got exactly what you voted for. In my opinion Johnson and his cabal of cretinous shysters should be tried for gross criminal negligence. "he´s doing his best " is a defence for a sunday league manager not the PM of a nation of 66millionViewDate:

How confident do you feel that the Government can deliver Brexit to the benefit of the country?No versión of Brexit will benefit the UK it may satisfy the isolationism so rife around the country but it is a delusion to believe the country will benefit, the harder the Brexit the more dire the consequences of job losses, lower revenues and freedoms we enjoy riget nowViewDate:

Are you concerned about the economic impact of Brexit?how much does Farage earn as an MEP? now that is corrupt. How many 10s of billions are sheltered in offshore accounts by the elite, denying this country taxes? that is corrupt. All the ultra Brexiteers are proposing is corrupt, there will be no material gain for the normal person in this country, in fact the British elite will get richer, that is the most corrupt fact about this car crashViewDate:

Are you concerned about the economic impact of Brexit?, Well Mr scandiman maybe i hit a nerve, anyone who wants to remain in europe and has not been brainwashed by the manipulating tax exiled right wing press is accused of being a traitor and i find that offensive. This country is split down the middle on the biggest issue this country has faced since WW2. I believe in a europe where we have seen no conflicts and bloodshed for generations, a europe where this country has prospered culturally and financially. There are many flaws in the EU, but when you see the buffoons like BoJo, Fox, ReesMogg trying to herd us over the cliff i would rather go back to the EU and propose a new relationship where the UK sits at the top table, this country should be a pro active and enlightened leader instead of spending the last 40 years being in europe and trying to opt out, quite bizarre how now they want to leave and opt in.ViewDate:

Are you concerned about the economic impact of Brexit?maybe you should have read some news last week that may shock you, Japan has huge investments in this country, including numerous banks, car plants etc, Japan quite categorically stated that if Britain is outside the EU, they will relocate their businesses to mainland europe, this will not be good for the economy or jobs or tax receipts, so please try and put a positive spin on this FACT. I suppose you'll say the bloody nips should sod off! Also John Redwood has advised his clients to pull all investments from the UK, another ringing endorsement. Japan is just the tip of the iceberg, still, i am sure you will build great trading relationship with Mauritania which is the only country in the world trading under WTO rules. In my eyes the traitors are the people who will drag this country out of a flawed but mutually successful partnership with our european cousins because of this little island mentality,ViewDate:

Are you concerned about the economic impact of Brexit?Can any of you Brexiteers please explain how you still amazingly believe the complete rubbish that is being peddled by the cretins negotiating on your behalf? £350m a week has been exposed as a complete lie. You were told countries around the world would be queing up to sign trade agreements before the UK left, once again complete fabrication. Fox and his cohorts visited India and tried to sell them "Empire 2.0" and the Indian government sent them packing as a result of Indian students having their study visas seriously curtailed. Australia has clearly stated that their priority is a deal with the EU with a market of 500m etc etc. Still, they have managed to sweet talk the Saudi's, Turks and Trump. (countries with horrific human rights, zero morals and run by complete imbeciles like Trump)There is no point trying to point out realities to narrow minded people who only read the Daily Mail , Express and Torygraph, all of which are businesses owned by multi billionaires who pay minimal taxes in the UK and are manipulating you for their own means. Brexit nirvana is a pipe dream, the reality is, all economic indicators are pointing down and will only get worse when Britain leaves with no agreement and nothing in place to compensate. Inflation is higher and salaries are going down, the NHS is in dire straits because all your hated EU staff are leaving, crops are starting to rot because no EU workers want to come and work in this half xenophobic island. Still, what do you care? You'll be dead by the time Britain negotiates anything that replaces what we have now. I would warn you to be careful what you wish for with "Hard" Brexit but you won't live to see the dire consequences of your myopic, narrow minded views. As a final comment. The 2nd referendum was advisory and not conclusive. The British public should be given a vote to decide if the final deal is acceptable. We owe this to our children and future generations. The choice will be Brexit or NO Brexit, and this time the public should be a lot better informed of the consequences, although reading the comments here i think there is a generation who would rather go through with the Brexit lunacy advocated by BoJo, ReesMogg and the rest of the anti EU oafs than actually come to their senses. Maybe they should try reading other sources of news to get a more balanced perspective? there again you can't teach an old dog new tricks can you?ViewDate:

Should Parliament have the final say on Brexit?Anyone who thinks hard Brexit will not have serious repercussions for the vast majority of us is seriously deluded. By the way I will not bother reading all the abusive and indignant responses ,we still live in a democracy and my opinion is just as valid as anyone else's. Now please just bluster away about how " the people have spoken" If we still live in a democracy all voices should be heard , especially if we truly care about the future being shaped by an unelected PM and the idiots pulling her strings for their own gains irrespective of the damage that will befall future generations in this countryViewDate:

Should Parliament have the final say on Brexit?Have I just woken from a coma and the country has been overthrown by the mob? I believe we still live in a democracy and every voter is entitled to their say whether they voted remain or leave. Parliament is the final arbiter not the mob. Our elected MPs have a duty to represent the views of all of us. Very disturbing how this country has been ripped apart and apparently there are no rights for the rest of us to challenge what deal is negotiated. These negotiations will shape this count -
