"What a load of drivel some spit out on here. I see a government that listens a lot. They make mistakes and then correct them. So gets on my nerves about hostile negativity post after post and seeing it from the left wing media point of view that it's a U turn. Sometimes U turns are needed if you are going down a blind alley. If only it was possible to be making the right decisions all the time. Would life be so bloody perfect ? if we were all a flipping Fab expert. " Agree with the comments above. All those who think they can do better put your real names down and stand in the next election be it local or countrywide. If not stop all the negativity. Everyone is entitled to an opinion but when it is constantly negative it doesn t do any good except make more people switch off to your view when you have something positive to say. As my gran used to say " if you can t say something nice .don't say anything at all. | |||

However it will still not be perfect, other countries that initially adopted the decentralised method are still having issues with it. | |||

The problem isn't that they make mistakes it's because they have information from other sources that if they used would be as effective as they need. Instead they decide to do their own things and then it goes wrong. People are frustrated that the obvious choice seems to always be the last choice. By the way I'm a centralist and also have big issues with the left wing looking for any reason to complain | |||

Whilst China, Iran and Italy burnt from the virus amdd sout Asia was limiting their infection was tried and tested measures.... what was borris doing? Going on daytime TV saying brexit was gonna to be a success and that he would continue shaking hands and that the uk population should have a stiff upper lip about the virus.... Thats is the "this morning" interview if you would like to look it up Or what about a civil aide to the government being caught breaking the lockdown LAWS he helped create. Only to not apologise breaking them or resign or even be fired Then there is the illegal perouging of parliament borris authorised last year. I don't mind people making mistakes and I don't mind lessons being learned. But 50,000+ people and their families have had the lives of loved ones prematurely taken from them because borris and the government continued to make mistake due to arrogance and continue to do so with out remorse | |||

This isn't about political parties but a weakness in leadership. They could've reacted the same way as many other countries did but instead tried their own ideas fueled from personal agendas which had led to vastly greater deaths | |||

You don't have to be positive about something the Government has been rubbish at , you are allowed to say what you think be that positive or negative. I personally think that U turns or whatever else people want to call them are a good thing, it means they are admitting they have messed up and are now changing what they are doing...but I don't think the firm who had the original contract should be paid if they have not delivered | |||

Had we gone for it immediately, we could probably reduce social distancing to 1m, schools could welcome more children and the economy would have taken less of a battering. These guys have pretty much fucked up everything since the start and they're still singing and acting they were the cream of the cream, not admitting their mistakes. It's beyond belief. | |||

"You do realise that the app has nothing to do with social distancing guidance? The virus doesn't suddenly become less infectious just cause you have something installed on your smartphone. The government looked at the apps that existed at the time, saw the technology they have now had to go with didn't work properly, tried to come up with something better but couldn't overcome issues of radio interference on Bluetooth that can make people appear to be significantly closer to you than they actually are. But let's all string them up for trying to come up with a solution that was better than the already flawed technology that other governments were using and having problems with. | |||

"There is flaws in all the apps that’s the problem They require input from the people for it to work if it doesn’t sit with peoples agenda and may cost them time off work they just won’t input that information into it if it is gonna Coast them time off work again with just sick pay to Live on they will carry on as normal and spread the virus We have seen how selfish people are in the uk these days it’s all about them and fuck everyone else " Absolutely right, so sick of the selfish attitude some people have, they won't compromise on any aspect of their lives to help others and expect someone else to come up with a magic plan so life can carry on as normal. I'm losing a significant amount of my monthly pay cheque at the moment, having to do more hours than normal and have just had to waste half my holiday for the year literally going nowhere, and quite frankly if that's all I have to give up to help in some small way get the country through this, I'll happily call it a win. | |||

"You are all wasting your breath,its as if they are enjoying the struggle we are going thru and it makes them all look more intelligent, im sure we will be seeing them at the dsily briefings soon " Of course they're not. But seeing them refusing point blank to admit any mistakes is just shocking and appalling. Been listening to Hancock a minute ago. Now they're blaming Apple. These muppets make a habit of blaming everyone. Now that the EU can't take the flack for everything, they're running out of scapegoats. | |||

As my gran used to say " if you can t say something nice .don't say anything at all. It's an internet forum. You don't have to read it. Spoiler alert - more negativity here (garnished with a few facts). Marc Warner, brother of Ben Warner (Part of vote leave) was given a £250m contract to set this up. That contract was never put to tender. What's better than £250m for producing an app and accessing fuckloads of voter data? Answer: £250m for not producing the app but still getting all the data. 60000+ dead and their main concern is money in the pockets of their donors - Dido Harding (wife of another tory MP, donor to Matt Hancock) is in charge of the whole track & trace system. And all the time people are outraged about £900,000 on a paintjob for a plane, they're not asking difficult questions about the corruption that killed grandad. " | |||

"You are all wasting your breath,its as if they are enjoying the struggle we are going thru and it makes them all look more intelligent, im sure we will be seeing them at the dsily briefings soon Of course they're not. But seeing them refusing point blank to admit any mistakes is just shocking and appalling. Been listening to Hancock a minute ago. Now they're blaming Apple. These muppets make a habit of blaming everyone. Now that the EU can't take the flack for everything, they're running out of scapegoats. "Like most people in the uk these days there is no accountability They need to be spoon fed information They always looking to point the finger of blame on others even when it’s there own fault there a selfish twat and only think of themselves and what is in it for them | |||

Maybe you can explain to us why this gvt has refused to use the same app that numerous are using for weeks just for the sake of not doing like anybody else? No, they want to be world beating at everything. Well we are world beating at getting crap and being a laughing stock. One month ago, the app was meant to be the dog's bollocks and now it's gone out of the window. As usual, they're going to lie to us and put as much spin as possible to justify their shitty mess and people like you will buy it because you just don't want to admit that these incompetent clowns are just incompetent clowns. WORLD BEATING??? LOL "MORE WORLD CHEATING | |||

"So much time and money wasted with this. First off we didn't lockdown quickly or appropriately. Cost 20,000 lives, possibly more. We didn't order or manage PPE when it eas more easily available. We also didn't order testing supplies and then thousands went untested and untraceable. People died alone at home, discovered weeks later We declared care homes suitable to not be monitored, despite experts warnings in March/April. We let flights come from around the world without quarantine or testing as standard when hundreds brought the virus to the UK from Spain, Italy, France and elsewhere. We shut down experienced health contact tracing teams from March. Only to announce in May to do tracing with an outsourced contract for £tens of millions And to get private development of an app that could have been from open sourced software but instead we insisted on making it our way even though we made the specs inappropriate. We wasted more precious time, all the while when lost time can mean more deaths. We have poor judgement and it's cost us so heavily. Time easted, lost opportunity and lives numbering in the tens of thousands that were a voidable. We all make mistakes but there's too much of a standard pattern here. Exactly, and what makes it worse is there is a rule for them and one for us. Did anyone see Hancock break social distancing by putting his hand on a colleagues shoulder in parliament. Plus when challenged about anything they are arrogant too. I've not voted labour but there is always a first time. If labour return to the centre ground then it's game on. " | |||

Instead they told us a) that it would work, b) it would be rolled out by mid May and c) it would be world beating. Oddly, and yet again, it turned out to be bluster and bullshit.

"Does this mean then that the app that has been put on people's phones without permission will be removed?" if you mean the health notification on your android or apple phones Has Google installed the Tories’ tracking app on your Android phone without asking? No, it seems not Android phone users in the UK have reacted in alarm to the uninvited appearance of a new section in the ‘Google settings’ of their handset – one named ‘COVID-19 exposure notifications. However, it appears that what Google has installed in its settings section is not the Tories’ app – but rather a space or slot through which users can choose to connect to a state tracing app for notifications of exposure to someone infected with COVID-19 iphones are the same as goes for the deaths in care homes many elderly hospital patients was sent home with covid 19 infections Dr Gardner, from Sidmouth, Devon, said: "My father was one of the thousands of vulnerable people who died in a care home during this pandemic. "His death certificate says 'probable COVID-19' because he was not tested. "The care home should have been a safe place, instead, he was put at risk because of a government decision to discharge patients from hospitals with no regard for Coronavirus infection risk." Michael Gibson fell ill on March 14 and died on April 3, at the care home in Oxfordshire where he had lived. | |||

"The magic money tree has to be harvested for political friends whilst they can get away with it surely. Especially whilst some gullible or selfinterested people aren't able to either care or be bothered to do more than repeat the lines, like 'world beating' that the clown spouts. Hundreds of millions of pounds paid to friends without medical capabilities or technical competence, friends of Cummings bank accounts swollen etc. Monday that could have paid for real NHS needs, including medicines. Pockets lined very nicely, that's what matters. Any of us who had a simple instruction, to create an app that worked using the 2 main phone systems, that had black and white specifications and failed on 1 of them by wilful neglect, would be out of a job. Some people prefer the lies and misdirection, their game of thrones fantasy escape, as the horrors of so many needless deaths and people left disabled for life with organ damage makes me cry.

Why wasn’t that done at the start "There will have been many business and product discussions around the viability of using these as well as custom developer tech. It was a foolish decision as we now know. But they don’t just make new things like this for fun. It would have had many factors involved. Cost would have not been the deciding factor either as clearly having tools you can work with in place is likely to reduce the development roadmap. That said, there’ll be a reason. But we will probably never know the details. | |||
