By what standard do you make that call.
Against Trump, Boris, Biden, or the much touted European countries.
Last 7 Days Europe
Ok I’ll counter that with:
Show me a tough decision he’s made that went against public opinion at the time??
Closing the border doesn’t count. Public opinion clearly supported that back in March.
He constantly ducks and weaves any blame, makes regular announcements that have no real bearing, the decisions he does make are popular or follow public opinion (not lead it!).
Like I and others have said, a good leader should be able to make a decision and then bring the public with him. Scotty from marketing has never done that.
- how many travel bubbles has he announced?
- how many times has he announced something new to do with the vaccine?
- a large number of the new defence spending announcements were “already included in the $250B announced last year”
I could go on....
And don’t try and throw in the standard “look at the UK/USA” counter argument. The ONLY countries we should be comparing ourselves to is countries with similar geographic advantages (islands). The UK isn’t included in this list because they are so reliant and connected to the EU.
- Singapore
- Taiwan
- South Korea
- New Zealand
- Japan
How do we stack up against them?
