My thanks to Hrolf for authorising this thread I am just a little worried that David Davis is happy. Could the shifting sands of power favour the ERG? Did Cummings help keep a lid on the loons? Maybe the demise of the Mekon will end up having a deleterious effect. Be careful what you wish for eh?

Clearly not. Heads gone (went a long time ago) More wishful thinking. I'm glad to see that all the usual suspects have been encouraged by recent events.

Awful timing for Doris Johnson. Having to isolate for 14 days after meeting with an MP on Thursday who’s just tested positive. This MP tested positive for having a spine and bollox as well as Covid. Carrie is concerned it’s contagious.

Here’s a mind bending stat for you. Average age of coronavirus victims in the UK 82.4 years. Average life expectancy in UK = 81.5. I’d say this presents a clear case for not needing lockdowns at all, and especially not lockdown 2.0. We’re spending hundreds and hundreds of billions to prop up people who are going to die of something else very soon anyway. A controversial view no doubt, but it’s backed up by the stat above.

I look forward to a 'Zoom' meeting tomorrow evening with my plethora of Conservative devotees (And arch Brexiteers) as we discuss the recent events in Downing Street and the Brexit negotiations. I suspect the meeting will be quite protracted with a lot of "Like minds" in attendance!

'Average'. Nice way to condemn people to a life of walls. This isnt specific. They could actually live a lot longer or be a lot younger. Long covid isnt just for the old,in fact it appears primarily for the young. Maybe their bodies are ripe for long term issues. In which case they may never get to that 'average' age.

We’ve seen a creep of metrics from deaths, then when deaths aren’t too high, hospitalisation. Then when they aren’t too high, cases & long covid. Long covid is not proven and in no way should be used as ballast to support a ruinous lockdown. Life of walls for 1% vs life of debt for 99%. This economic approach cannot continue, we’ve already run out of money.
