1. Since coining the term 'Lockdown Denier,' @DPJHodges has been (over)using it to attack anyone who even dares question whether the benefit is worth the cost, most notably @ClarkeMicah & @JuliaHB1
As you can see, he's a staunch supporter of the lockdown ⬇️
2. In the here & now, @DPJHodges is fully on Team Lockdown (Go, Team!) However, back in March, he was on Team Lockdown Sceptics. That's right, boys & girls, he's played for both teams.....
3. By April, lockdown is cheating him out of his life, children are dying alone & the nation is losing its soul (or something equally as nauseating) - but, we're saving lives over here, so who cares about the cost. Am I right?
5. Why is this argument 'daft,' @DPJHodges? Lockdown is effective in stopping the spread of the virus, so surely starting it earlier would have stopped the spread earlier? They are effective, aren't they?
9. I'm not sure Keir Starmer is going to be much help. He's not one of those crazy Lockdown Deniers, is he? You know, the ones who say there's no scientific proof that lockdowns work?
12. I could leave it there, but as I'm a twat & @DPJHodges insists that no-one has ever been as wrong as the 'Lockdown Deniers,' here are a few examples to refute that:
15. My personal favourite - when a Jewish Labour supporter informs him of they'd still vote Labour in spite of Corbyn, @DPJHodges accuses them of being 'Corbyn's useful Jewish idiot' 😂
A 🧵 documenting all the damage caused by lockdowns......
