yes this current lot are constantly being surprised by how difficult running the country actually is.
I'm sure this is due to the culture that pervades down from the guy in #10 who gives off the aura that he thinks he can do anything and it'll be easy just because he went to Eton and Oxford, but pays literally no attention to the details resulting in calamity after calamity.
Brexit negations , they'll be easy
managing a pandemic, well just wash our hands a bit more

this was neatly summed up for me when the other day, despite presumably being aware he doesn't speak much French, he decides to wing it on a TV interview and comes up with some garbled nonsense "prenez un grip and donnez moi un break".
this is the arrogance of someone who has never had to bother with trying at anything his whole life because every door has been held open for him.
I can't believe he's actually running the country.
