The current UK Covid 'strategy', if I may use such a word for their serial haplessness, is as much about UK politics, and the Brexit car crash to come, as it is about concern for the health of the public. We saw in Phase 1 how little they cared for people's lives and welfare. 1/4
So now they alight upon places in Europe, many with far fewer cases/deaths, than several parts of England, and say, sorry, brave Brits who have ventured to these parts for a deserved holiday, but because you have been in contact with pesky Europeans, you may now be at risk 2/4
So it's quarantine for you folks. But don't worry, we haven't got much of a proper testing or monitoring system in place, and we have only imposed one fine so far, so honestly, no need to worry, there will be lots of media noise but no knocks on the door. 3/4
Main thing is if we play our cards right, just as Trump has his 'China virus' line, I reckon we'll be able to campaign on the 'EU second wave,' make you forget Phase 1, and remember why we are leaving these diseased parts. Messages being tested at your expense as we speak 4/4
