• I have an issue with picking one article from a biased source to suggest a point has been proven.

    Also Guardian article as gospel is a fucking boring trope in this place. Some variety would be nice. /moan

  • I didn't say a point has been proven. I asked if there were any concerns with government policy. Will you play the ball (i.e. engage with the substance of what he said)?

  • I think, perhaps unsympathetically, you are suggesting that Franks should reconsider his position based on the contents of the guardian article you linked to immediately after your question.

    I could be wrong - what were you suggesting? Perhaps you should have been clearer. Or it's my bad?

  • Will you play the ball (i.e. engage with the substance of what he said)?

    I actually find it kinda difficult to get to the substance of what he's saying. He obviously doesn't like what's happened so far, and he obviously doesn't like the government, going so far as to describe the PM as superficial, which if we didn't live in such extraordinary times, is kinda extraordinary. And also not really playing the ball either, but there we go.

    He admires what has happened in HK ('total'), which is fine, but like my posts in this thread here, we can't really behave like HK because we aren't China.

    So I guess we have to believe him because he was a former regional director of public health for north-west England.

    But given his obvious dislike of BJ, it's possible to feel he might have other motives alongside his obvious dedication to public health. It reads like a borderline rant with little actionable content. Which could just be shit reporting on the G's part.
