You was waiting for the number of dead to rise so you could post this, weren't you?
No doubt it's "due to Brexit"... -

Depends on whether our glorious leaders actually learn anything from the first wave and do anything positive as a result.
You say others don't, care to provide a list of countries and how they count, also include any reasons why we must ignore their figures because they lie, but our glorious leader is known for his truth, honesty and integrity.
Brexit is good.
Brexit leaders are good.
Good leaders do a good job.
Brexit leaders are doing a good job on Covid-19.
Stories that Brexit leaders are doing a bad job on Covid-19 are Fake News.
Once you've established that framework, you can apply it to anything. For example:
Originally posted by Boris JohnsonI’m shaking hands continuously. I was at a hospital the other night where I think there were actually a few coronavirus patients and I shook hands with everybody, you’ll be pleased to know. I continue to shake hands.
1. This was doing a good job.
2. This never happened and is Fake News (probably the Guardian).
It doesn't matter much which possibility you choose, or even whether you stick to one or change tack.Comment
