Another one; and fixed.
So we delegated one of the most important decisions in peacetime to a bunch of scruffy youths who spend their time gaming in basements?
Yes he did.
The correlation between those who made eye-watering amounts of money from dystopian policies and their support for them is very, very close.
In the light of the narrative that we didn’t ‘lock down’ early enough, here is a thread from last year in which I provide context. The submissions have been published here: committees.parliament.uk/writtenevidenc….
Casting aside all precedent, advice and proportion was never the right answer.
You really cannot stop. Lying and lying and lying again. As you know very well, the insane modelling of your cronies was so inaccurate it was worthy of the epithet ‘Fergusonian’.

The total number of under 50s in England infected with the Delta variant between 1 February and 2 August 2021 was 237,419, of whom 147,612 had not been vaccinated.
Australia has become a police state.
In any other context we would impose economic sanctions on them. We should. And a trade embargo.
They and New Zealand have fallen well outside the free, common law world.
