Corona Virus Treatment

I'm not a Conservative, and I'm not defending their recent actions, but you can just imagine the response if it had been a Conservative authority that did this: "Not happy with starving the public to death, the Tories now want to make them illiterate in the process!"

 

Yeah, same here. Went Lib Dem for last two elections, but they've gone off the boil lately. Would never touch Labour again with a barge pole after all that happened between 2015-19 and what I've seen of the antisemitism in that party locally, and although I don't subscribe to the "all Tories are evil" arguments, I just don't think I could personally ever vote for them as my vision of society is so different to their's. Even though I loathe contemporary politics, at every election I look into standing as an independent, and last year tried to raise the funds to do so, but couldn't. This is why it pains me when people assume anyone not voting is "apathetic" - I always read at least the 3 main parties' manifestos inside out, usually have detailed email discussions with the candidates, and follow the election with a fine tooth comb, while many of those I've heard accusing non-voters of apathy are themselves apathetic, have no interest in the actual policies of a party and just always vote for x party because they always have. I spoiled my ballot in a couple of recent local/Euro elections due to the extreme attitudes of the candidates, and will probably do so again for the foreseeable future, as I don't want to help any of them gain more power, and I doubt I will be in a position to fund my own candidacy.

 

I think though the video has been removed it is worth reading the transcript of this video.

 

It would not be fair if they allowed supermarkets to sell cards again but still keep high street card shops shut. Same goes for all other non essential items.

 

I think the governments are missing the point, supermarkets are not spreading the bigV, nor are daytime pubs and restaurants.

Its the night time economy that needs shutting down.
Along maybe mixing of households, which I think is probably a big spreader in some areas.

 

The supermarkets still sold all these 'non essential' items in the first lock down and not a word was uttered...how things are changing..

 

Good job he had his mask on

 

Rather him than me in this weather.
