    Always been how I've looked upon my own stance. Those on the right think I'm a rabid leftie (which in many ways I probably am) but those on the left thing I've got some quite right wing thoughts on stuff like crime and punishment and to some extent economically. So for me that probably means I'm...

    So their plans on devolution are now down to individual level. Absolving themselves of any responsibility. If things get worse it's the public's fault for not using common sense. Even though lots of the public don't get a say in how they want to deal with this as it's down to the whim of their...

    He seems extremely competent but uncharismatic. So we all know in an election how that'll go.

    The ONe Nation Tory who's already managing to split up the UK before we've even done Brexit properly. UK PM delivers a message (well, sort of) and all the other nations ignore it and continue to use "Stay at home". Won't be long before they're basically completely ignoring Boris and just going...

    For Boris it should be more "Go to jail. Go directly to jail. Do not pass Go. Do not collect £200k."

    At the start it was all about ignoring what other countries had done because they were doing so badly. Now they can't wait to follow others (even though places that have dealt with it far better like Korea and Germany are seeing increases after easing lockdown). If we'd used that lag time and...

    Option b. Be dead from the virus and none of the above matters anymore to you anyway.

    There are people are saying it's time for change. Moving away from economic factors as the main (almost only) measures that are given any importance and using a more rounded way of measuring the performance of the nation, including health metrics (physical and mental). Giving less weight to...

    And if you've got a shitty employer who refused and said "be here at 9, leave at 5". If you don't you're on disciplinary. If you don't like it you can find another job. And due to money issues you can't afford to leave.

    You really should learn the difference between right and wrong and popularity. Just because something is popular doesn't make it right. These changes are being made because Johnson thinks they'll be popular. Not because they're right.

    Fuck I'm starting to feel a bit drowsy and sleepy. Must stay alert. Will have to put an espresso next to my bed just in case.

    Yep. R = 1 should be a long way down the curve, not the peak of it. Also at no point did it show the possibility of R going back up again and restrictions being put back in place, which it should do to show things could get worse again if people don't 'stay alert' (whatever the fuck that means).

    The impression I'm sort of getting from Johnson is a hidden "get back to work scum" hidden inside a massive dollop of craving popularity by easing lockdown a bit because people are getting sick of it. But make it massively ambiguous so if/when it goes tits up you can blame the public rather than...

    Remember Stanley sneeringly saying that he doubted most of the working class couldn't even spell Pinocchio. They consider average people an underclass who're effectively a sub-species. It's common throughout that class. If this was 200 years ago he'd still be all for slavery and restricting the...
