"Anyone with any sense knows that no government and/or PM would have done any different or any better."
I can't take seriously the claim that this is the best any government could have done. Or, if it is true, then it's a matter for despair at the standards of our available leadership, rather than a useful defence of Johnson et al.

I posed the question & went to bed with 1 answer, booted up this morning & there's an amazing 70! Someone above asks why I've changed my mind.
When elected PM he gave a very good speech, no doubt prepared by D.Cummings where he thanked the 'Red Wall' Labour voters for support & "lending him their votes" he went on to say he wouldn't let them down. Cummings was the one person near to him who really understood what these people felt & why they voted so, (also the originator of the winning phrase "Let's get Brexit done")
Cummings has now been ousted & the word around Whitehall is that it is at the behest of Boris' live in girlfriend & her green priorities has had him, at this of all times, to announce the banning of petrol car sales in 9 year's time. This shows - along with many other things- the singular lack of priorities which has been demonstrating since he took office.
He is a man who can't be decisive, & without Cummings he will finish with a watered down BRINO. He wanted desperately a job which his way beyond his abilities. He wants to wear the hat, bit it doesn't fit.

A million jobs have gone since the first lockdown with probably a million more when the furlough money runs out. Millions are facing financial ruin & turn to the PM for leadership & are told how they will be using hydrogen power to cook their breakfasts in 2030 due to a green revolution & their islands will be the, "Saudi Arabia of wind".
Official figures show how there has been a surge in loneliness & isolation, people don't know what their lives will look like come the spring let alone 2030.
Businesses & individuals are 8 weeks from the Brexit deadline & no one has a clue where they stand, I'm sorry but, how ever you look at it, this is chaotic leadership. Amen.
