You only need to look how many people were conned by Brexit to realise how easy it it is to fool a moron. The UK has its fair share of them.

I was a remoaner initially. Got quite heated at home when the in-laws came up from Cornwall for a week.

Then I noticed the amount of venom and hate against the vote. And that made me not give a fook.

My life hasn’t changed.

Things have changed around you, including in shops and work environment.

May not have affected you much, but it has affected you.


A remainer and a Farage fan, and why don't I believe you ?

Has no one pointed out that the study is *******s yet? The question format they used is known to inflate fringe views above their actual number.

It asked about 'the light', a conspiracy theorist rag and if their numbers are right then it has a readership of around 2 million and another 2 million distributors.

(Insert random number here)% of statistics are made up on the spot.

This enquiry caper is going to take
At least 3 years

It will be kicked along the road indefinitely until everyone's completely bored of it and the media lose interest. Then some bland conclusion, all done.

The main purpose of the "inquiry" is to allow all politicians to say that they "can't comment while the inquiry is ongoing". It's a big fat excuse to get them out of answering to anyone.

I've no idea what happened to the Grenfell inquiry. It's all just the same formula, drag it out until nobody cares any more.

One thing is for sure I wont be having any more jabs.

At least you are alive to say no.

I've never seen or read 'the light' but it does seem to be drawing attention from the mainstream media. The BBC seem particularly eager to misrepresent.

That's not mainstream media, that's just junk for conspiracy waոkers to splat over.

Even I wouldn't be that harsh on the BBC. Perhaps you should re-read my post.

How much should a government spend in order to protect the citizens of their country from a killer virus, spreading exponentially through the population with no known vaccine to protect them?
What do you do?
Lockdown the population until a vaccine is found or wait for the virus to weed out the weak and save money?
Your call.

How many people have died as a result of the lock downs what studies did they do on that before carrying out the further lockdowns

It was a binary choice without the benefit of hindsight. Faced with an unknown variable they chose the lesser of two weevils. And made plenty of mistakes. Too many people, especially elderly folk, died due to incompetence. In that context, the government had very little time for analysis and relied on scientific advice, which was often contradictory.
Quarantine was the best choice to be made at the time.
