A former paediatric and PICU nurse
Labour has accused Boris Johnson’s campaign of “lying and cheating” to try to distract attention from the prime minister’s insensitive reaction to a sick four-year-old boy forced to sleep on a hospital floor.
With just days to go until polling day, the Tories suffered one of their worst days of the campaign as Johnson refused on camera to look at a picture of the poorly child and pocketed the phone of the reporter who tried to show it to him.
But wait, there’s more.
Bots sending out identically-worded fake tweets saying the photo of the child on the floor was FAKE NEWS.
Isn’t it funny how Joe Tulip and Tim Curtis have the same friend and the same experience in the same words.
Now that fakery has been alleged – not convincingly – care must be taken, aaaargh!
Nevertheless, surely the point of the photo is that the type of care mentioned by the paediatric nurse is NOT happening when it should be?
The argument – “that shouldn’t happen, therefore it didn’t”, well… I’m not a philosopher, or a cyclist, perhaps I shouldn’t comment.
Zing!
