Bending lockdown rules? Cummings effect?

I think its the two hours notice.

Like, we are the registered carers for my 97 year old mother. I have a business. That business has stock as well as staff that depend on it.

Two hours notice.

We hadn't stockpiled food - either at home or at my mums.

Two hours notice.

Kids were prepping for school 48 hours after. Schools were prepping for kids 48 hours later. Everyone has lives and responsibilities... and then...

Two hours notice.

Cummings goes to Barnard Castle. Stanley Johnson goes to France. The cast of TOWIE go to Dubai. Premiere Footballers have parties.

Two hours notice.

At the Tescos where I am wearing my mask a car pulls up. Four lads, none wearing masks. they come in to buy booze and cigs. Nobody cares.

Two hours notice.

Johnson on a bike, his security detail out for a pedal.

Two hours notice.

Someone I have never heard of modelling a swimsuit for a company I have never heard of on a Caribbean island. But they'd booked that holiday months ago.

Two hours notice.

And I get it, really I do. I have a responsibility for my mum, for your mum, for my family and yours, for my job, my business, my staff, my customers. And I had to put all of it on hold at two hours notice, even though every person in the country knew that a lockdown was coming just as surely as we know U-turns are coming. On every policy.

All our lives. Permanently on hold. Stop start stop start, at the whim of a manchild who rules by fiat, who claims to follow the science but follows the opinion polls. With a team of people picked for their slavish devotion to Brexit. To the idea of the Sovereign Individual, as championed by Mogg the Elder. That the rich are simply better than us, by dint of being rich.

Two hours notice.

Science is predictive. Science can extrapolate infection rates and deaths from bad policy. Like economics can predict an eleventh hour Brexit deal is going to cause confusion and chaos among couriers and importers - and exporters. That nobody knows or cares how much red tape and tariffs the process will incur, because you can't do projections on non existent treaties.

That you sign on Christmas Eve before you all fuck off for two weeks.

Two weeks notice.

Our government no longer governs. It's time for them to make way for people who will. They should follow the latest opinion polls and fuck off.
