It
is becoming pretty clear now as to what sort of society we have
here in the UK. A shallow, non-thinking, basic people who cannot wait
to get to Spain to get drunk as fast as possible, fornicate on the
beach in public and think that they are doing a grand job. These past
weeks have shown a distinct separation of behaviour generally. Those
that have abided by the advice to stay at home or in the very
vicinity of it and take care for others and themselves and those who
flouted everything. Some younger people actually said 'I cannot get
this virus, it’s only oldies who get it' and would push around
people in the supermarkets without abandon. Then there were those who
abandoned all pretence to keep to the 2m distance advice,
congregating on the streets in twos, threes and even more, drinking
alcohol and clapping the NHS.
Well
it just shows the quality of the society we have built since WW2.
Unfortunately rather than getting hard, proper researched advice from
our government and I mean the main government not the sideshows in
Wales and Scotland or even Northern Ireland, no the London rabble, we
had an enormous number of mostly conflicting advice. Back to school?
Yes, in England, no everywhere else. Should we be 2m or 1m apart,
no-one knows. Can we fly, yes or sorry no, not really. Perhaps wait
until Grant Shapps makes up his mind whether to establish air
bridges. God help us all. Then the government who has and still is,
spending literally billions on something called ‘furlough’ also
stated bluntly hundreds of thousands or even millions will lose their
jobs. So I suppose furlough will turn into jobseekers allowance. Much
less of course. But now that the lock-down is easing and the beaches
are filling up, mostly with bottles of urine and human excrement
because all the toilets are closed, IKEA has a queue, seven miles
long to get some Swedish meatballs at the caffi and McDonalds needs
police protection because the McFlurries have dried up, yes we are
back to normal folks!
