There were 492 new coronavirus deaths in the UK ystdy?
Why isn’t this headline news?
Why aren’t the dead acknowledged?
We must “Give sorrow words. The grief that does not speak whispers o-er wrought heart & bids it break.”
#CovidMemorialDay = 1 January

Rather than reporting on the 492 Britons who died of #COVID19 ystdy (including a 13 year-old) or the 397 who died the day before or the hundreds who died in the days before that, the media are focussing on the important stories like @JeremyClarkson’s bum! #CovidMemorialDay 1/1/21 
“It doesn’t matter if you’re left or right, a Leaver or Remainer, @piersmorgan or @Piers_Corbyn, we all need to take the time to grieve.”
Six months after the first Briton died of #COVID19 we held UK #CovidMemorialDay
1/1/21 is World Covid Memorial Day

Unlike countries like Spain where a 10-day period of remembrance was held, the UK hasn’t taken a moment to grieve
#COVID is so inextricably entwined with politics that the simple act of grieving the dead has become a political act
