Boo hoo.
how does any of that affect health policy in Wales?
I'll answer - for being a ****
the response to the pandemic by all 4 home nations has been terrible. Lets not kid ourselves that any home nation has done better than any other.
no one had experience of handling this, its new to everyone, even that idiot Drakeford.
no, thats excusing the 3 other devolved administrations for their own shortcomings.
Boris is Prime Minister of the United Kingdom mate.

well you've won the internet today with that response
well yes, but that doesn't answer the question. This is a health issue and as such in Wales the issue wrests with the Welsh government.
If he was, it's one of the few occasions Johnson was being sincere and truthful.
It's 9.30 and you're clearly up for being argumentative and contrary today.
I'll humour you though...
Because they obviously effect health policy, you clart.
They resulted in spikes in cases, lack of safety equipment for NHS staff, thousands of deaths in care homes and the failed track and trace (aka Servo track and trace) meant thousands of people not being notified that they should isolate.
If you think they don't have any implication on health policy... Actually, we know that you know the truth but will be an argumentative tit for the sake of it.
Textbook Feedy.
There it is. It's a health issue, apparently.
Not an education issue. Not a welfare issue. It's just a health issue.
Called it.
Well, health is a devolved matter until the WAG wants to have a firebreak lockdown at a time when the UK, not English, Government is defying Sage advice by not having one and, furthermore,not extending the furlough scheme to allow the WAG to have the early autumn lockdown they wanted, so there is a clear example of Welsh, apparently devolved, health policy being dictated by Uk Government financial policy.
You Johnson apologists want it both ways, you bang on about the Union and how we’re all one country, but, as soon as you want to defend the Conservative and Unionist party, you talk as if there is no need for the independence parties in Scotland and Wales because those countries are already separate entities!
No one actually uses our 'largest airport'
Seriously, closing Heathrow and Gatwick would have a much greater impact on Wales' virus figures than closing Cardiff.
I think feedback should take the time to read this CNN report, as you get very little objectivity from a compliant UK media.

Politicians didn’t listen to the scientists

People need to realise this being a "health issue" is a result of the failures not the cause of it.
I can't imagine being so tribal about politics that I'd want to defend the current government.
its very much a health issue. To suggest its caused by going to school or because you receive tax credits is outright bizarre.
I'm not disagreeing, I'm merely pointing out that the responsibility for all of that in Wales is with the Welsh government. That's the bit you can't (or don't want to) grasp.
I'll bite.
If it's just a health issue, why aren't PHE and the NHS in charge of making all of the decisions regarding the pandemic?
It's become a health issue due to all the other failures. There is no argument to be had with that.
Why have so many other island nations managed to stop it becomming "very much a health issue"?
Johnson's a Tory **** and has handled the pandemic in England pretty poorly. That does not excuse Mark Drakeford and his shit show in Wales.
you even say yourself that Drakeford enacted our own firebreak lockdown, so why was Drakeford sat on his arse doing nothing when Johnson wasn't listening to Sage advice. Why didn't Drakeford act? We could have had a lockdown but Drakeford chose not to.
Imagine being so compelled to defend the Tories that you come out with this.
I'm pretty sure the DHSS dictates the policy that we are seeing, it is why so many in England quite correctly criticise Matt Hancock
Ummm... Who is in charge of track and trace? PPE? "Putting a protective ring around care homes"? Delaying the initial lockdown? Defending high profile rule breakers and destroying public trust? Deciding whether Cheltenham festival and other high profile sporting events could go ahead?
Nothing devolved in that lot.
I use it, it was open an awful lot across the summer and into autumn - I used to fly from their 3 or 4 times a week.No one actually uses our 'largest airport'
