Thread. The UK Government is at a cross-roads in its CV19 response. I want to lay out in the thread below why so many of the very recent decisions the authorities are making will fail. And why we are set for many thousands more infections & thousands of deaths before Christmas
First, the government in England think this is a "north of England" problem. People work in regions outside which they live. Uni students traveled outside those regions. Data will soon show CV19 Wave II across the whole of England.

•Children can transmit CV19
•1,000 CV19 droplets can survive in air of a classroom for 8 minutes just from 1 person talking
•5,000 UK kids CV19+, 500 hospitalised, 14 dead
•75 teaching staff died of CV19 in Mar & Apr
•2 UK kids have died from Kawasaki (MIS-C), 100+ infected
This is particularly unintelligent. The virus spreads metres in the air with 1,000 Coronavirus droplets just from 1 person talking in the classroom. The cloud survives 8 minutes. Coronavirus won’t understand the rule that it has to stop at the yellow line & not infect your child.

Coronavirus Thread. How deadly is the Coronavirus?
1. What are the symptoms? 2. One in five people who become infected are in big trouble. An illness of 3-6 weeks that for about one in twenty will become critical.

Some of the seats Tories won at the General Election were places where no Tory canvassing teams existed. They flipped Labour seats without any contact rate or team on the ground. Very unpopular view but a rethink is needed on what really works. Targeted Facebook ads destroyed us
And measuring digital reach by the number of views or retweets/shares you get is practically pointless. Zillions can see your video but if the viewer becomes passive, or the content is humorous etc it doesn't translate into votes one. Some viral videos earned no new Labour voters

BBC 1 PM news edited out the audience laughing at Boris Johnson when he was questioned on trust. The key moment of the entire night. This is unforgivable journalism
Here is the original footage that BBC cut out. You can very clearly hear the audience laughing at Boris Johnson’s trust issues. Trust is central to the election outcome. Erasing this laughter from the clip is shocking BBC

Thread. Tory claims that Labour will increase taxes on every household is a serious fib. We’re going after the elite & asking them to pay a little more. Here is a breakdown of the ways we will raise taxes. [1/4]
Labour will protect all earners with an annual income of £0,000-£79,999 per year. That is the bottom 94% of UK society. Only the richest top 6% of society will be asked to pay more. The few. [2/4]

Excellent policy from Boris Johnson to open 60 new youth centres. Just a pity the Tories have closed 763 Youth Centres since 2010. For every 12 they close, Boris might reopen 1. Toryism in a nutshell.
Excellent policy from the Tories to offer a massive £10.50 per hour wage. Just a pity they’ll exclude under 21s, those on apprenticeships & that 900,000 workers are on zero hours contracts & therefore £10.50 multiplied by 0 = £0.00. Give people decent employment contracts.
