      People should have voted the conservatives out. We found out the UK would be devastated in the case of a respiratory pandemic during Theresa May's government, during a "war game" called exercise Cygnus. We found we didn't have enough respirators or enough PPE. Nothing has been done about this since then, and they have continued to cut funds to the NHS. If you only want to participate in electoral politics, at least vote for the party in your constituency that has the best chance of removing these incompetent Torys.

If they do not back up their "thank you" with some positive action going forward then the Tory MPs are just as worthless as the "thank you" they are spouting. First, they can action that payrise they blocked last year - the one they cheered at when they overturned it. Second, Boris can make those 3000 extra nurses happen, the ones he promised during his General Election pledge. Then, stop the backstage privatisation of the NHS, it just drives quality down and cost up, and reverse that which has already happened.

      @steve gale The Tories have had over a decade to turn around the PFIs, instead they have gone further and privatised the NHS backstage, there are private companies at work all over the place in NHS hospitals, charging sky-high prices, and providing under-trained staff and sub-par equipment. If the Tories were serious about the NHS, they would have turned off the PFIs, and reversed this undercover privatisation.

    Sadly there have been record deaths in the last 48hrs in the UK. Much of this as a result of government dithering less than a month ago, with the PM playing down the pandemic and happily offering to shake hands with those affected by COVID-19. The PM continues to be on life support, and the NHS underfunded and understaffed. Thankfully Germany (who have far fewer deaths yet more cases than the UK) are giving a large number of ventilators to the UK. Kudos

    Shame that he could not apologise for voting against awarding NHS workers a pay rise a couple of years ago & cheering along with his Tory colleagues when they defeated the motion in the House of Commons. Maybe apologise for raping & pilaging the NHS funding for the last 10 years so that it had to begin its response to this crisis on the back foot, perhaps appologise for fostering a hostile environment that has seen NHS staff from the EU leave in droves & subsequently not then fill the 40,000 vacancies that exist. What about PPE? The Government were warned only a coup,e of years ago that they would be under prepared & stocked for such an emergency but the had the report dumbed down & suppressed as they did not want to fund the findings that highlighted the inadequacy.

      Welcome to Tory Britain. If we had voted in Corbyn, he would have immediately started piling in billions to the NHS, and we would have been 3 months on the road to a better NHS when this hits. Remeber this at the next General Election. Remember who cheered when a payrise for Nurses was overturned. Remember who promised an extra 3000 nurses at the GE and went back on the promise the first month in office.

Empty words from people who never expected that their underfunding and cuts to the NHS would result in something like this, and show up how much damage they've done. And now they talk about clapping the carers who, before, they deemed not deserving of a pay rise. They clapped then, too.

    The reason NHS staff aren't being tested is that due to the lack of PPEs many may have contracted the virus and thus will be forced to self isolate. As staff numbers rae low due to no real wage rises and hisse cuts from the government they will be even more pressures on remaining staff members.
