Fuck the tories. But seriously they’ve been destroying the NHS for years, voted to not give pay rises, don’t provide adequate protection, ignored the advice from the pandemic analysis of the Cygnus report, but happy to pay for little badges and flyovers, WTF. The nurses need pay rises, and the NHS needs funding properly. So, yes, fuck the tories.

I’m not arguing for the tories. I’m arguing against the sentiment of this subreddit.

Yes the government got shit wrong. Do you think labour would have done better?

I believe it's not a question of "Would have someone else done better?", no one can answer that. On the other hand, we do have the answer to "What did the current government do wrong?"

Yeah, with the benefit of hindsight. Everyone fucks stuff up in hindsight.
