Talk about Tory sleaze - I see Johnson is now recommending the Johnson & Johnson vaccine.
Does he have no shame??*

My inlaws and all my customers are a flight away (unless I drive to Luxembourg again) - but they're also a Teams meeting or a WhatsApp away. I'm bemused by people who "must" go abroad on holiday. Just give it a rest, support local (yes buy British and wave your Union Jack) and have a holiday in the UK this summer. I'm talking covid transmission here as much as environmental reasons.
Survey on BBC website saying many believe there will be a united Ireland within 25 years. What will we call the UK when it's just England and Wales? Just that, I suppose - we'll be up there with Bosnia and Herzegovina and St Kitts and Nevis in the list of world powers.
Adrian will have noticed that Johnson got 2 quick and easy wins this week - by not going to India and saying the ESL was a bad idea. He did actually sound sincere about the football, not reading off a script.
David "considerably worse than Johnson" Cameron makes me laugh - not only does he lobby in a questionable way but the company he lobbies for goes bust. He is such a failure.

Im disappointed the ESL didn't happen. Watching the top level rip itself apart would have been entertaining

Watching the top level rip itself apart would have been entertaining The next step is the top 10 clubs breaking away from the Premier league and forming a Super Dooper league of 36 games each playing each other 4 times like the Scots premier used to be. You read it here first, Swordy exclusive. |

Didn't he once get the name or colours of the team he 'supported' wrong too? |

He confused Aston Villa with some other tinpot team who wear claret and sky blue. Scunthorpe or Weymouth or someone.

When he was promising things to the Dyson chappie last year, at that point he was clearly crapping himself with fear over the pandemic. Whether that makes it right or not, is of course another idea...

Whether that makes it right or not, is of course another idea... Did they ever make any ventilators? My memory is of a lot of techies thinking it would be a breeze to knock them out, only to discover just how difficult they are to design and manufacture. |

In the end, no. It was just one in a long list of the panic stations mentality at the time. However, being Tories, many people around the party nevertheless sensed opportunities - witness the many reports of PPE contracts and the like being dolled out without due process being observed.
Yes we needed stuff in a hurry and maybe it was quicker to go with your mates at a time of national crisis, but the cynic in me does wonder just how much money was trousered along the way AND how much was simply wasted.
Nevermind, Covid will be curable via a few pills soon. Boris says so, therefore it must be true...
Meanwhile a scan of the banner headlines this morning reveals the usual contrasts of 'We can all go on holiday now' and the inevitable 'covid is still out there' warnings. It annoys me that newspaper editors can be so stupid and indeed irresponsible. Look at India, where things have really gone tits up, or Brazil. People as a whole cannot be trusted to be collectively sensible and will gorge on anything they've been denied for a while, given half a chance.
It's taken the government the best part of a year to work out what is required to get on top of things and, just for once, I have a degree of sympathy with the fact they have to face up to the 'time to get out and party' lobby. The careful experiments with things like the snooker and other crowd type events seem very sensible - do a few carefully controlled ones, monitor them and see what happens before doing anything else.
Just a shame they didn't try this last autumn...

Just a shame they didn't try this last autumn... It was headless chicken time. Their vaccine roll-out (so far) has saved Johnson's bacon. Of course a tree-hugging, left-wing, Guardianista might point out that a vaccination programme is a lot simpler to organise than a all the other aspects of trying to cope with a pandemic, and might suggest that, whoever had been 'in charge', would have at least managed that bit OK. But I wouldn't be that cynical. |
