COVID

Data analysis time again – and still no wiser. I have had a look at the areas with numbers above 800/100000 and there is no apparent pattern. Double jab vaccination varies from 82.1 to 59.3. and single jab from 87.8 to 65.7. So vaccination rates on single/double jab) would appear to be of little relevance in the actual numbers (I do not have access to the detailed figures for hospitalisations and deaths).

COMPARRISSONS

Nicola Sturgeon makes a long broadcast without using ‘experts’ to hide in the way Johnson does. She is authoritative and sets out the issue clearly. What a contrast from the shambles of ignorance that pretends to be setting rules to control this pandemic.

AUSTRALIA DEAL

Some Brits can move to Australia without visa for up to 3 years. But do not rush their PM is probably on balance worse than the idiot we have here. Johnson has proved his incompetence but Scott Morrison will be remembered by history for his climate denial.

WOKE

I am proud to be WOKE and shocked that everyone else is not!

Woke is an adjective meaning ‘alert to racial prejudice and discrimination’ that originated in African-American Vernacular English. STAY WOKE

FOOTBALL

5 more postponements for the weekend. The FA will need to act soon before the disruption to the fixture list becomes unbalanced. Already we have seen no postponements for the top 3, whilst Spurs are already 3 games in arrears, Brentford and Burnley 2. The top clubs may have large enough squads, but with the African Nations Cup coming up there needs to be forward planning. It also needs to be set out clearly in advance to ensure fairness.

BY-ELECTION

Humiliation for Johnson with a Conservative majority of 23000 overturned by a swing of 34.2%. Several comments. There was a definite ABC vote which may not be replicated in a general election. The turnout was less than 50% indication of Tory abstentions possibly, or maybe disgust at the shenanigans in Westminster.

JOY MORRISEY

believes that Parliament knows more about Public Health matters than Christopher John MacRae WhittyCB FRCP FFPH FMedSci (born 21 April 1966) is a British physician and epidemiologist serving as Chief Medical Officer for England (CMO) and Chief Medical Adviser to the UK Government since 2019.

Repeated pleas to the government of Saudi Arabia for a second job, partly to pass his children’s private education fees. Saudi Arabia is amongst the worlds pariah regimes – murder, corruption, misogyny, Yemen, Qatar, etc.
