The PPE was taken by the government for the NHS and care homes can isolate an individual if they know when they transfer from an hospital that they had the virus unfortunately this information was not readily available. The other is that without full PPE the careers could not be certain that they could not catch or spread the virus.
Let us not forget that Johnson stated he had a plan ready to go for social care I wonder what happened to that or could it be he was just making it up.

I just hope that his plan was better than his roadmap.

Or his over ready plan for the microwave

more lefty garbage, Sin Bin is nothing more than an online care home for some.

Better a care home than the asylum you inhabit

asylum, because I am capable of reasoned thought, my opinion based on fact not age old proven failed ideals?

keep going, it's funny...

No because you aren’t capable of reasoned thought if you were you like the many would realise what a mess the government have made with regards the handling of the pandemic. What do we have today, the application of a quarantine period when the majority of the world did the same several months ago. The reason we don’t want to increase the r rate despite the fact that other than the USA and Brazil we have the highest numbers. What happened to France last week Johnson stated you could enter through this country a week later it is changed without any explanation. I wonder if he lied to them as well.
I wonder if the ban will include those entering by private jets and why the 08th June and not now. You may not like the chief executive of Ryanair but how do they get from the airport to their place of isolation, social distance walking because surely travel on any other form would increase the chance of passing on an infection.

Keep going, the vitriolic hole you are digging with the bones of the dead tells us all about how happy you are that the pandemic is happening on a Conservative shift, if only Corbyn had won, he'd have made sure the IRA, Hezbullah etc.fought it off....?

Any comment about Coogan furloughing his household help.....?

What about Cummings going on a little jaunt after supposedly self isolating. I doubt Corbyn would have gone around shaking people’s hand and boasting about it when he knew the virus was about.
I am afraid you are becoming a little bitter because all you have is the reference to the IRA which is now old news, try to explain the government’s actions rather than making the usual it would be worse under Labour. We have the third largest number of dead only being behind the other two stable leaders of the USA and Brazil, why is that ?.

No comment about the darling Coogan, or anything other than hindsight and idealogical bull54in3?

Always the same, I have not said it would be worse under a defunct proven failed ideaology, you haven't said how it would be better... but keep digging that hole, maybe you can line it with sack cloth and ashes and a few stars of david. The government are doing the very best they can, all you can do is snipe and say it's all bad, thank fook you are fewer and fewer in number as people see that the MAJORITY of people are pulling together and doing their VERY BEST. as well.

travel quarantine "several months ago"

If this is the best they can do I'd hate to see them dicking about.

The Coogan story was just a dead cat in case Johnson was to face a criminal investigation over his dodgy dealings with his Yankee tech tart. It was just to get the little Englanders all wound up. Worked on you, didn't it? Funny how the Sun went all in on him. Didn't Coogan give evidence against them in the phone hacking scandal? They'll never let him rest now.

Personally, I can't see why Coogan would need to furlough a gardener. It must be one of the easiest social distancing jobs going. He's taking the Mick if he has, but in the grand scheme of things it's hardly front page news. But I'm sure you know that.

You are correct it is the best they can do unfortunately this has resulted in the deaths of over 40,000 people, confusion with messaging, secrecy, trying to cover up the protection of the NHS by transferring patients to the care sector even with the virus basically being slow in everything they have done resulting in the numbers above being at the level they are.
To make it worse we had a Conservative minister visiting his second or third home, the main scientist involved with the lockdown rules inviting his lady friend over and now Dominic Cummings. I look forward to the excuse they come up with on this one. We are doing our bit for now but the latest news on Cummings and the stupidity of the new quarantine rules will probably push many to say why should I do it.
