It takes a brave person to lead in these critical sochul medier led times. There are a lot more bows and arrows than there are people willing to give applause. But leadership is exactly what is needed.
With a little bit of time between when this mess started and now I think the Furlow program, Florence hospitals (even if we have not had to use them thank god) and other bets have been shown as good bets. The decision to actually act and get the orders in for the vaccines especially good.
I placed that bet on Starmer for the next prime minister as I still find Boris's manner unbecoming in many ways but I figure the team do need the applause for some of the big stuff they have delivered. I wonder what it would have been like if we had an objective and positive press in the UK, there is a fair amount to be thankful for which seems to get passed over.
I am still going to take the mickey mind you.
