So essentially Brown could almost have been forgiven had he stayed on holiday being that the systems were in place to deal with it.

But with a brand new, unprecedented crisis which by your own admission is less easy to effectively deal with, then the PM should have immediately cut short his holiday and come back to chair the COBRA meetings, like Brown did in 2007 despite the fact it was a known and previously managed danger?

For his biggest fan you don't half manage to accidentally make Johnson look like a crap Prime Minister
