Time for a recap. The majority of the British Public did not vote to leave the EU.
OMICRON
Shambles as usual. The government was quick of the mark this time to make an announcement. However the announcement was pathetic. From next week – whatever that means – masks will be compulsory in shops and on public transport, but not in hospitality services. This makes absolutely no sense, you can cough and sneeze in a crowded pub, but have to wear a mask in shops where social distancing is generally well observed.
ESTER BOSERUP
OMICRON VARIANT
Typical mixed messages in the press regarding the latest variant. When scientists do not know the level of danger it would seem prudent to be cautious. The government seems to be doing this, although it may need to put more countries on the red list as the case of a man in Belgium with the variant, had travelled in Egypt and Turkey, not Southern Africa. Cases have also been detected in Israel and Hong Kong.
IDIOT
Tory MP, Nick Fletcher, blames shows like Dr.Who employing female leads as the cause of male violence towards women? I am just going to knead bread and will think of his head!
STUPIDITY OR IN YOUR FACE?
HM Revenue and Customs is moving to a new office complex in Newcastle owned by tax avoiders and tory party donors. Billionaire property tycoon brothers Reuben have based the development in BVI. Sleaze, sleaze, sleaze.
THEY THINK ITS ALL OVER-
REFUGEES
PEOPLE
I have to repost a comment from David Osman ‘ The people we should we worried about come to Britain by Private Jet not inflatables”.
WOMEN AND SAFETY
Despite high profile cases the safety of women in the UK remains perilous. 1.6 million women suffered domestic abuse – cases referred to CPS = 77.812. In the year to March 2020 over 200 women were killed in the UK. Femicide Crisis reports a death toll of 1 woman every 3 days over the 10 YEARS to 2018, with over 90% of killers being men. And yet another young girl is murdered.
