Hahaha!
You simply don't understand anything much about politics do you!
You really believe most people vote for who they think is best equipped to lead the country???
Of course they don't!
They vote for the party they always have.
They only change their vote if there is some local or national issue they feel more strongly about and their 'party' is doing nothing much about it in their opinion - such as Brexit or the hatred of their own political party leader - which were the two reasons why Labour got crushed at the 2019 general election.
Conservatives didn't 'win' that election in so much as Labour voters 'gave' it to them because they thought Labour under Corbyn was a disaster.
They certainly didn't cast their votes because they thought Johnson and the Conservatives were the 'best thing' for the country and that although 'their' local MP 'was a good 'un' they'd still vote 'Conservative' instead!
And before you use your stock phrase of telling me 'I miss the point' (when we both know I haven't) if you think I'm talking bollocks, then why are something like 90% of constituencies return the same political party in every General Elections and thus why huge effort are put into winning the 'swing' seats? I'll even answer the point for you, because people vote for what they believe is best for themselves and NOT who they think is best for the rest of the country.
And if I may throw your phrase back at you, you miss the point about the lockdowns which I clearly made because it doesn't fit your mantra, namely the decisions were done at the time, based on the best information they had up to that point, to balance the NHS needs with the opposing needs of the economy and were done with the best of intentions. They were not done to kill people or ruin the economy and some of the information on which the decisions were made have been found after the events not to have been factual and/or accurate.
It was inevitable that in retrospect some of the decision taken were wrong - nobody is denying that - but they were made with the best intentions at the point they were made.
How hard is it for you to grasp that?
Or rather you have grasped that but you find it more enjoyable to continue arguing and putting the boot into the 'Tory' government?
