Amazes me that just about everyone now agrees it's a fuck up and the consequences are unprecedented, but nobody has mentioned a vote of confidence. Johnson deserves plenty of criticism, but not all of it. The opposition, and not just Labour but every faction, has been shameful. Nodding every last fuck up through and then trying to score cheap political points after the fact.
There was ONE decent question in parliament yesterday. Why aren't prophylactic drugs available for the most vulnerable on the NHS, on prescription by GPs? How could that possibly hurt? How could it not help? Why aren't there even trials? It has been months of this shit. Our "leaders" have been entirely reactionary, following charts and graphs that couldn't stand a minute's scrutiny if subjected to an open scientific debate. But they've done nothing preventative, nothing targeted. Lockdowns are not preventative, as the data keeps showing, over and over and over again. Even the WHO has abandoned that BS now. They do far more harm than good, although you won't see the entire extent of the devastation until it unwinds over time.
We really are facing a catastrophic health crisis now, thanks to policy - not Covid. And it will coincide with an economic catastrophe, again due to policies.
