    The buffoon not a few weeks ago was championing heard immunity whilst shaking hands with the ill. Now we're, well... you, are all paying the price. I'm reminded of a line from Gladiator 'Still the crowds will love him for it.'

    He's no one to blame but himself. He put his unqualified self on the highest chair in the land, much like a modern day Caesar, for nothing else than the lust of power just so he could match his Bullingdon Club mates with their accolades.

    He'll return to no. 10 like Caesar returning to Rome as if he his won some great victory. All the while unleashing his cruelty on the serfs.

    A sickening if not dangerous state of affairs.

      Stop being so undemocratic. He won the election so he must be right.

        Buffoon might not be as dumb as he looks and acts (hard to believe I know) - he may have gotten it early while there is still enough blood plasma with anti bodies...

          “ Sir Farrer, who is a member of the Sage committee, which advises the government on the pandemic, said on the BBC’s Andrew Marr Show:

          “The numbers in the UK have continued to go up. I do hope we’re coming close to the number of new infections reducing … and the number of deaths plateauing and starting to come down.

          And yes, the UK is likely to be certainly one of the worst, if not the worst affected country in Europe.”

          He said continuing testing in the community would “buy you time” to deal with the crisis, giving an additional six to eight weeks to ensure health systems were up to capacity.

          “Undoubtedly there are lessons to learn from that,” Sir Jeremy said.”

            Absolute figures are what the frothy mouthed want to compare, not the proportion of the population.
            Not sure that's true at all. The USA has 6 x the population of England and only just over 2 x the number of daily deaths.

            Grim reading for England.

              The dead numbers are people.

              Some of the these people particularly the older ones may have died this year but not all would have done.

                There is probably only 1% of population that got infected in the UK - likely less, so multiply 10k by 100 and we are talking million+ dead (more since there will be no health services at all)

                Herd fecking immunity my arse
