Thoughts on UK’s Corona-cock-up

A continuation of what I’ve witnessed being in the UK re coronavirus, covid, lockdown etc:

  • We now live in the 2nd worst affected country in the world after the US.
  • The number of total deaths in the UK in 2020 is over double that of 2019.
  • The government has been incredibly vague, lazy, unfocussed, and downright outrageous in its handling of the crisis.
  • Today’s ‘stay alert’ instead of ‘stay at home’ advice adds to the vagueness and will encourage more killing.
  • The UK has ignored any type of collaboration with the EU: it had to create its own mobile tracing app, and it did not accept participation any PPE schemes.
  • Despite everything, the government is still kicking migrants out of the country; refusing to recognise the NHS as anything valuable (just give them a clap); and pushing for no-deal Brexit behind the scenes.
  • I have also witnessed what appears to be an incredible new leader come to power on the other side (labour) – Keir Starmer. I’m sure that if this man was leading the country right now we would be in a much better position with thousands fewer deaths.
