"... politics and science do not mix. (...) there is no scientific manual to tell leaders what to do. (...) scientists are not well suited to making those decisions. They want the facts to speak for themselves. That is wishful thinking: facts alone cannot tell us what to do."

[The Guardian @guardian]

Boris Johnson is learning that in politics you cannot simply 'follow the science' https://t.co/1d6zcjv3bZ
