The Two-faced, hypocritical Buffoon and his Party set for a Mauling at PMQ's Today..

[the other bob wilson]

I posted the data on percentage of the population with a booster vaccine (UK is 2nd in Europe) and the number of deaths per capita for the last week (we are 31st).

If you are interested in facts over opinion then you would respect this information.

However, since you ask, I have looked at the covid deaths per capita for the last month too. UK is 30th in Europe on that

Any rational person who favours factual evidence would take from this that perhaps, just maybe, the UK government is doing better than some of you think.

But hey, insult me all you like. If you want to live in a fantasy land because you are still crying over spilt brexit that's up to you.

So, you now say we’ve had a good month compared to the rest of Europe, but the data I posted places us twenty ninth in a list of Covid deaths per million of the population over a period of over two years since the disease first appeared. Of the twenty eight countries in front of us, four have a population of under a million which may or may not (I’ve not checked) adversely affect their standing in the table, while sixteen of them are countries which used to be part of the old Warsaw Pact - again, you wonder if the preponderance of such countries has something to do with a lack of resources (certainly, almost all of them must suffer in a comparison with us).

Of the countries which could be called Western European, non Warsaw Pact democracies that may have been members of the old Common Market, Belgium are twenty first and Italy are twenty eighth, all of the others are below us. Maybe that’s why the author of the article (someone whose findings SAGE have used) you dismissed as leftist propaganda used the language he did - right from the first wave, the figures tend to show the UK Government (and, by implication, the devolved Governments) have done worse than countries they share many similarities with and I would argue that there are valid grounds to suggest that the fact we’ve not done even worse is that the ordinary people in the UK have, at times, been ahead of their Governments in anticipating what’s coming.
