What Will The Next U-Turn Be?

[diddlydo]

How many more things can this government get wrong? Will they ever admit their mistakes? I doubt it.

Did you support the lady when she was not for turning?

[satprof]

Brexit?

[diddlydo]

I never supported That Awful Woman over anything.

[diddlydo]

Satprof - I live in hope of your admirable suggestion!

[fiction-factory]

The same question could be asked of the scientists and the WHO. And when does monitoring the situation and acting as circumstances change become a u turn?

[royfromaus]

So you slate Boris for u-turning and you slate Margeret for not u-turning?
You don't really have any independent thoughts, you just dislike anything and everything because it is the Cons?

[dannyk13]

Changing circumstances require changing advice.This is not doing a 'u' turn, as any one with a modicum of common sense would know.

[youngmafbog]

It is a difficult one because advice from the 'scientists' seems to change by the hour too.

However, some things are clearly knee jerk reactions to the MSM, twitter and the wee one. Boris needs to grow a pair and stick to things a bit, as we are I dont think anyone really knows what they should or should not be doing. I wont hold my breath though, so far Johnson has been a big disappointment.

[diddlydo]

The U-turn on exam grades and the ensuing fiasco was nothing to do with the scientists.

[youngmafbog]

No, but most things have been and by stating 'how many more' in your OP you are clearly including the rest.

The schools thing is like I say, capitulating to the MSM, twitface and the wee one.

[diddlydo]

Youngmafbog - the masks in schools U-turn was because of pressure from schools and Nicola Sturgeon's edict re masks in Scotland. It seems that Boris only has a mind of his own when it suits him.

[youngmafbog]

The masks thing was 'science' based too.

I am not sure why you are nit picking with me. Basically I do agree with you!

[gulliver1]

Next time Boris reshuffles his Cabinet . He will have to appoint a,
Minister of U Turns.

[ToraToraTora]

are you suggesting that this and all future governments must never react to changing circumstances?

[ToraToraTora]

diddly: "I never supported That Awful Woman over anything." - make your mind up, you are criticising the PM for changing and also TGL for not changing? PMSL! what is going on in that loaf of yours?

[gulliver1]

The Gentleman is for Turning. PMSL

[ToraToraTora]

we only need Teacake now to complete the triumvirate!

[weecalf]

I’ve said it before I’ve said it in Brighton ..

[Vagus]

I don’t see it as a u turn, I see it as the government reacting to the most recent advice, which is exactly what they should be doing.

[naomi24]

^Quite, Vagus. This constant whinging is becoming more and more pathetic.
