I don't think it was unreasonable to assume that this was going to be another waste of time and money. February/March time when it was ripping through Italy to the point where they couldn't bury them quick enough was the time where simple logic should have realised that now was the time to act.
And hey, I voted Boris. And in recent times, I have realised that he was hardly impressive with our response too and I will admit that. It is important to admit when you are wrong. Boris is an unfunny joke.
