• The lack of discipline in overcoming this in the UK political class is stunning. Or their inability to tough out a politically difficult situation.

    The idea that, because Spain has reduced their lockdown restrictions to a point which is still more restrictive than the UK, they can do the same, while having significantly higher daily ICU, infection and death figures, is bonkers and is purely being talked about to win political capital.

    It is driving me potty... So much for the blitz spirit.

  • Same here. But watch them tell us this is the blitz spirit. Just like Trump is spinning the reopen decision to mean the public will need to be the “warriors”.

    I thought lockdown could only be eased once the new cases number was right down!? Simultaneously reading the news about New Zealand and other science led, sensible governments then looking at the U.K. is making my brain hurt.

    This government are an embarrassment and the U.K. death toll should be a scandal that outrages the public. Yet each day I read comments online or hear someone say “they’re trying their best, don’t be so negative!”

    I hope people will pay attention to the new cases number and still say home, but with the blonde haired clown telling us we can sunbathe and a nation of sun worshipping lizards, I highly fucking doubt it.

  • This is the number of cases tested. Put it in the bin.

    Death toll trends (not just in hospital) and best predictions on R number are what matters. Along with the protection of workers.
