Has he accepted the risk, personally?

Just what would these people do if they start to realise they have covid-19? They won't seek out an empty grave and climb in. They will try to get to hospitals. Or drive suicidally to have a last blast. Or die in their flats, houses, cars. Bodies everywhere. Lovely for someone to have to clean...

You can believe Hancock, Gove, Raab, Brandon Lewis, Lord Bethell, and the rest, but only if you don't value factual information or truth.

Back to brexit... And having or eating cake. UK making 'impossible demands' over Europol database in EU talks Leaked German government report shows Britain has been requesting special access The British government is making impossible demands over access to Europol databases in the...

Where we live is an estate of sorts, one builder has been building the houses for many years. They were doing the last four houses, in the last corner when CV hit. Since then, their work has been sporadic - some days busy, some not. Strongly suspect combinations of all the things affecting the...

Just what questions would you have predicted on your morning rounds of the media? 08:52 When asked whether the government would be able to meet its pledge to test 100,000 people a day by the end of the month, Lewis said: “This was a virus that had no test at the beginning. Gone into 2,000...

Baby is apparently due early summer. Just resign, don't bother going back to empty your desk, straight into paternity...

An interesting, and concerning, paper about covid-19 in the UK. Usual warnings about it beinga pre-publication, unreviewed paper. The Contribution of Age Structure to the Number of Deaths from Covid-19 in the UK by Geographical Units Abstract This study investigates the contribution of...

Round here, without visitors, it is unusually quiet for the time of year. But it is actually unusually quiet for absolutely any time. At around 14:00 today, one retail park (grand term for a few out of town shops) had the sort of number of vehicles in the car park that you might see at 08:00 on...

There is a growing pressure to enable people who come to their second homes to be sent back to their primary homes.

Some people are very unhappy at our local council: Newsroom Authority says second home Council Tax premium will stay Pembrokeshire County Council has justified its decision to continue to charge a 50 per cent Council Tax premium on second homes. The Authority has faced...

I'll accept you can argue that. But I'll disagree. Partner and I have been socially distancing and, to a considerable extent, actually self-isolating all the way through. We have watched as football, rugby, nags, and goodness knows what else were allowed to go ahead. We have watched as there is...

True - I changed my mind about what to write but failed to change the typing! Mea culpa - Johnson should know what that means. Pity he won't say it (with meaning).

If one united kingdom is such a step up from four separate lumps, how much better 27 united countries in Europe?

Hancock says home testing through the post will become available. He says this will be particularly useful for people living in rural areas. Does he understand what he saying? Indeed, ability to do a home test and pop it in the post sounds like a good thing. But why rural areas? At least out in...

Cocoa the clown?

We could all interpret this as he (possibly? probably?) meant. But the sheer incompetence of putting these words together in a country being told to socially distance, self-isolate and shield in every direction, is mind-numbingly grotesque. Raab says the critical ingredient is for the country...

Would make more sense for Missouri to sue DT who made it worse, worser, and worsest. Indeed, he's having a perfect, beautiful pandemic. Just remind me of the deaths in China - however many times adjusted - against those in the UK and USA.

Prize idiot.

I think many would concur. ;)
