Johnson states that covid cases are within the parameters forecasted., That means he is happy that the number of deaths do not need him to try to introduce Plan `b which will fail anyway as no one believes anything he says anymore.

Jacinda Ardern reportedly phoned the families of all 28 people in NZ who died of Covid. If Johnson did the same, with each call taking 5 minutes, it would take him 5 years, 9 months and 2 weeks.

Levelling down seems to be the Governments attitude on culture. It has claimed sole rights to what should or should not said.

Javid criticised by the speaker for by-passing Parliament and issuing policy by press release. Government policy is to ignore any comments that do not say how wonderful they are. Positive thought is all that is needed. He is also criticised by doctors for issuing diktats regarding patients and introducing league tables. He really has no clue, which makes it surprising that compared to Maggie Throup the Vaccines Minister, he is almost coherent! John Grace said she would be out of her depth in a tea cup but I think he is being too generous.

We will have world leaders or at least some, China’s Xi is staying away and Brazil’s boss and Aussies Skunk might as well do so too. The developed world have contributed 80% of the CO2 increase so far and yet expect poorer countries to not copy their path out of poverty to relative wealth for all.

Democracy cn be very nice – candidates have to say the right things, and every few years there is an opportunity to ditch them. this is the problem. Some problems can be solved reasonably quickly – even Covid? But others require decades or longer.

the Governments green strategy is in tatters before the first page is read. Johnson says we will all be driving, flying, heating our homes by cheap power. He totally misses the point. Whilst becoming carbon neutral is urgent, it is not the only factor.

As numbers continue to surge the Minister for Ill Health states that now is not the time for Plan B. Why? Because some of his colleagues disagree with science, medicine and basically anything else based on evidence.
