• At the heart of the current slackness regarding the mismanagement of CV19 is colonial smugness right? There’s this background attitude which essentially boils down to the fact that Jonny Foreigner is dirty and unruly and that we aren’t - therefore we won’t succumb to the nasties. Also we’re proud, superior beings who won’t react well to governance.

  • Working very well, England has the worst excess death rate of Europe, holidays allowed, then quarantine 2 weeks later... but yes, you could very well be right that is a factor.

    Scotland, yes, a big problem with carehomes and nr3.
    Weirdly NI is only nr 8 (again lots of carehome deaths) as it's not densely populated, like Scotland though our big cities are smaller.
    Both of course were not in control of early shutdowns/furlough payments, though could have done better.

    But DoorMatt and redBusBoris have really no excuse.
