To be fair he's making the point that infection rates in the city are dropping offWhat next? Andy Burnham is now saying the government is exaggerating the impact of Coronavirus. Better tell that to the tens of thousands of bereaved families Andy.
Yep. No need for wildly inaccurate models any more.We should be working off hospital admissions not positive tests. The whole shebang should be based off Gupta and Heneghans work at Oxford rather than the current methodology.
What is the source of all your opinions? Supposition piled on allegation piled on surmising.He's a labour party member, a former labour MP and cabinet minister under Brown, there is every reason to question his bona fides and doubt his motivation.
First off, it looks like he's trying to boost his standing within the party, possibly for a subsequent return to parliament and perhaps even an eye to challenging for the leadership.
Secondly, it looks like he's playing politics with the lives of the people he's supposed to represent to give the labour party a gain at the national level.
Finally, there is no way the government can allow itself to be held to ransom like this, it would set a precedent that every other city would follow if they had to raise the lockdown level.
Frankly disgusting behaviour from Mr Burnham and the labour party in general.
Hang on a minute, some on here have been arguing to the hilt about the threat of C19, now there behind the decision to not go to T3 as infections are dropping off ? which is it, a death sentence or a cold. Don’t be fooled into thinking that politicians are not using this for political gain. That’s their job.
Big change now, they’re running out of intensive care bedsand more than 100 people died in Greater Manchester this weekTo be fair he's making the point that infection rates in the city are dropping off
There are currently 64 people it hospital with Covid in Greater Manchester right now - only 4 new admissions yesterday
That compares with 200+ in April
Nottingham's new infection rates are currently more than 50% higher at over 1600 per 100,000
