Somebody needs their Safe Space!

It's actually being managed by some of the PR people who ran both the Leave and election campaign.....

Downing Street calls in election gurus to overhaul coronavirus comms

So they hired people with a good track record i.e. double winners?

Should they have used Camamoron or Magic Grandpa's team?

Errrrm..... From the article..... Total gravy for these guys.

Levido was brought in to run the Conservatives' successful election campaign last year, after working with Sir Lynton Crosby on David Cameron's 2015 campaign.

The article explains how they come up with all the slogans, advise the Prime Minister to look sad when he's talking about the deaths etc. Worth a read!

Prepare for more lies for a gullible public. These are the guys that came up with the fake Fact Check UK social media account for a start along with all the silly slogans (which is all a bit fascist / communist really)

They have many, many fake social media accounts, it's part of what they do

The fact they have to tell ministers how to present themselves publicly, when that should be completely obvious, shows what stooges we currently have in.

That wasn't brexit drivel, it was a factual comment on the way misinformation has been used in the past by a collective group of offshoot Tory nutjobs to use public relations and information manipulation to push a narrative that doesn't stand up to scrutiny.

Perhaps for that cause it was damaging to the country but I can't realistically think of anything more serious than a pandemic where the information to the public has to contain certainty and reason. Paddy's comment is completely correct and is justified in this thread.

It will take you, your family or relatives to die before you even consider tracing the possibility back that a bad ill-judged policy could have contributed to those you know dying.

It seems that attitude is prevalent down south. A post-event approach is normal in daily life, but with a pandemic - as the WHO has pointed out - you have to act prior and be defensive, accept you'll make mistakes. It seems people here think this won't happen to them or their loved ones and would defend an inept government to their dying breath.

Steve Jobs And Winston Churchill Didn't Start Out As Great Speakers

In fact, many years earlier when Churchill was 29-years old, he stood up to give a speech in the House of Commons as a newly elected representative and literally froze for three whole minutes. He managed to say a few words, but returned to his seat in despair and covered his head with his hands. He vowed it would never happen again.
Churchill spent years refining his speeches, practicing his delivery, and obsessing about every word choice, substituting longer words for shorter, more impactful ones. He gave hundreds of speeches. By the time he became Prime Minister at the age of 65, Churchill had become a masterful orator, one of the greatest speakers the world has ever known. “The secret of Churchill’s success of a speaker was immense preparation. He wasn’t a natural,” says Johnson.

Interesting stuff, thanks.

Certainly not, we have led the way in propoganda for many years, since the first world war, we led the way in that respect and many countries followed.

There are many differences now, as everything moves so fast and lies and manipulations can easily be uncovered, at least by anyone with half a brain .
