An “immunity debt” in New Zealand now exists, with hospitals flooded by babies with a serious respiratory virus. Doctors say children haven’t been exposed to range of bugs due to lockdowns, distancing and sanitiser and their immune systems are suffering.

If you cause something, it’s you who’s to blame for it, not someone else who didn’t manage to stop you.

View from a friend in Brussels: ‘You were a significant EU member when all this began in 2016, but that significance - in terms of economic strength, your City, key industries, diplomatic clout, relationship with the US - has since been degraded. We can now afford to lose you.’

Does anyone think de Spaffle will answer a single question during his weekly half hour of hyper-salaried bloviating spaffulous twatulation?

So now it's:

1. a winter Covid second peak;
2. A Brexit no deal
3. a China v US/UK trade war
4. And a serious global recession

Anything the Government could remove from the above list?

Lots of Tories destroying their membership cards in protest to mandatory mask wearing. Not punitive benefit sanctions, lethal austerity measures, or spiralling poverty and inequality. The last straw with these sociopaths was considering the health of others.

Thank you @speakerpelosi. I know it was meant for Trump but we need it here for Boris Johnson too

Note that the government is using a non-linear logarithmic scale on the y-axis of the graph.

This makes the growth in the number of deaths seem much much lower for the casual viewer

Deliberate deception?

Both the US and the UK made a tragic strategic error of thinking there was a trade off between rising #COVID19 fatalities and the economic cost of lockdown. Delay was the worst of both worlds: steep curve of infections, even worse economic consequences

I’m 28, a vulnerable disabled lady with complex needs.

Today, you withdrew my last help. You withdrew the nurse who comes to my home to clean my tubes.

I’ll die if they aren’t cleaned and changed regularly.

Sky news:
“The government has said that it will return to its strategy of mass testing”
Return? When was that strategy ever in place? Did I miss it? Or is the Johnson regime re-writing history before being held to account for the its deadly & wilfully sluggish pandemic response?

Can we ALL just agree upon the fact that Johnson is a disgraceful charlatan who should never, ever have been elected, let alone made PM.
There is nothing remotely charming about bumbling through a crisis and costing lives.
I feel like we’re being governed by scooby doo villains.

Where the f*** is the Home Secretary?

Can someone ask her to stop pulling the wings off butterflies and DO HER JOB???
