Hello again.
I completely agree. They should have not changed anything until the guidelines had been thought through and they should have fully consulted with employers, unions, teaching professionals, transport companies. Nothing seems to have been thought through. There is no joined up thinking. Boris is trying to govern like Tories usually govern, we know best, just get on with it. As you say this is dangerous during this time.
There needs to be a plan to go from complete lockdown to "normal life" but is must be properly planned. Government's job is to make the difficult decisions but they are not going about it in a competent manner given today's confusion.

Basically the government are deliberately vague in their message. So when your friends & family die they can blame you.

As if we didn't already know that the Tories hate the poor.

Hello again. Some wag has adapted the current warning phrases in England. From Stay Alert : Control the Virus : Save Lives to I'm Not Expendable : I'm Not Stupid : I'm Not Going.
Also that naughty YouTuber Joe has produced a political mashup that if things weren't so dreadful and tragic would be mildly amusing. As it is, the ineptitude of some of our political leaders is nothing short of disastrous which makes the following video rather like the sarcastic songs sung by the soldiers in WWI.

Anyone seen Boris Johnson recently? Where is he?

Hello again.
Last I heard he'd been replaced by a Slitheen. Michael Gove who has always been a Slitheen has gradually staged a coup with Rees-Mogg, Raab and Hancock. Slitheen Boris is currently conducting a sale of the Earth to the highest bidder...

Hello again.
Ooh I'd forgotten about Mr Cummings in my Slitheen plot. Oh he's the Slitheen Strategist definitely. He was involved in the Yes campaign for Brexit. He fell out with Farage who is from the planet Clom and is an Abzorbaloff and while they worked together for a while, their mutual loathing couldn't continue.

So that's it. Proof if proof were needed that the Tories don't give a damn about you or your families. They can do whatever the hell they want. They can excuse any behaviour of themselves or their employees. There is no excuses now, if you vote Tory after this you are just as vile & morally empty as those who govern.

Hello again.
People have short memories, Johnhurtdoctor. However, this time we have the possibility that HM Opposition will finally be taken seriously as an alternative government. They will have to really work hard against the right wing media though.
I do feel sorry for the civil service who have to work with such a toxic and uncivil government.

I think Boris has called it wrong this time.
Has the potential to be one of those turning points like Black Wednesday or the non election of 2007 from which a government never really recovers.

If there is another spike/peak in cases we know at whose door the blame will be laid

I don't give a damn about this government recovering. I give a damn about more lives being lost because of the actions of this spineless PM so scared of Dominic Cummings that he prefers to support him rather than focus on public health. He has a duty of care to us all first & foremost.
