YouTube Description
as posted by the channel"Boris Johnson is a man out of his depth and I don't think anyone who's followed his career would be surprised," this caller told Shelagh Fogarty.
Caller Richard branded the Chancellor Rishi Sunak's performance during the coronavirus crisis "good" when compared to the Prime Minister and Health Secretary Matt Hancock.
"Our expectations are so low that Sunak looks great but I don't think he's been outstanding," he said.
"Anybody who's followed the Prime Minister's career must have known what was going to happen when he got into power. Even he must have enough self-awareness to realise he's out of his depth.
"That's what he looks like to me, he looks like a man who doesn't know what he's doing and that's why he's tanking and laughing," he continued.
Shelagh asked if the caller's expectations on tackling coronavirus were low from the start.
"I didn't expect a lot to be honest, I think to deal with a crisis of this magnitude requires an international mindset, it requires calm thought, it requires experience, and it requires decision making which is based on as much evidence as possible but also that you've got a clear direction of travel."
