There will be blame Mike as there has been fault. I take your point that there was no rule book for this pandemic and that’s mostly correct, but we have now had three waves and not learned from any of them. We only know what we have been told and the information I have received suggest that Boris has not followed the scientific advice, certainly no when they offered it. So as far as the information I have obtained, through various outlets, Boris did not act quickly enough on the expert information being offered.
There may indeed be fault Brydo, and therefore some will want to lay blame for that fault, but the politically expedient are already laying it on thickly, but what I am saying is that we cannot lay blame until the end , and comparisons with others can be made.
It may be, that Boris has lost a few costly battles, but he may very well win the war , saving countless numbers of lives – we don’t know yet, and anything thrown at him is just politics by politicians, and we all know that ALL politicians lie – it’s the nature of the beast.
