The arrogant generation of over priveged toffs (not all – ithers just copy thise that are!). Scientists were at best on tye periphery of COVID decisions. Ignoring expert advice and indeed belittling them. won the BREXIT vote for them. Many in the Cabinet are climate deniers despite irrefutable evidence to the contrary. Their main arguement is that put forward by Jame Lovelock of GAIA fame, who. proposed that mitigation was cheaper than trying to halt global warming. Money would be better soent in HIV/AIDS research. These views are echoed by Coffey, Anderson, Truss, JR-M, and the Telegraph(most of whom’s readers will be dead by the time the shit really hits the fan.
On which – surely climate activists like “Just stop oil” would be better off raising funds to produce hard hitting podcasts and YouTube videos and spreading the word on social media. i.e. bypass the establishment. Perhaps a campaign to put stickers on every lamppost and telegraph pole in all urban areas.
Back to. the COVID Inquiry – It seems highly likely that the government tactic of going to court is not to protect Johnson (Far from it!) but to protect themselves from forced disclosure. Of particular note is the furore building around Sunak’s role in decision making generally and the Eat out to help out scheme! He was the one with his digitsd on the cash – test and trace scheme must also come into question.
