According to Moggy, people should just stop 'carping on' about the lack of test kits and should be thankful to the government instead.
We just aren't all blessed with the common sense he has.

Trump has said we need to get to Herd Mentality - an unfortunate slip of the tongue, but probably pretty accurate. We need stupid Herd Mentality to go after Herd Immunity without a vaccine.

dildo Harding doesn't believe "anybody was expecting to see the really sizeable increase in demand" on test and trace.
FFS, the scientific community has literally been banging on about second wave prospects since march.
what did you think would happen when pubs open, restaurants have half price food and people are encouraged to go to the office..... and then schools open.
useless

Hancock was defending this on the radio this morning. You'll be surprised to hear that it's all the public's fault, as usual. The bastards.

It was also predicted in the report on preparing for the winter that Johnson admitted he hadn't read when questioned about it in July. Apparently no-one in govt has still got round to reading it https://twitter.com/jamesrbuk/status/1306685840484167680

It's not just the incompetence that irks me. I'd have *some* respect for then if I at least thought they were trying their best.
But they're not. They're not even bothering to read and learn about it. People resonsble for the kits are not bothering to check how many of those kits (that they are responsible for) are needed.
These cunts are insdous even by Tory standards.
But Corbyn...

Bloody general public, if only there was a way to get rid of them...

Can’t see it going as far as a full lockdown again though. A lot of people just aren’t going accept being put in that position again and impact on businesses would catastrophic.

There's been some talk of a two-week lockdown/harsher measures to try and act as a "brake" on COVID in some areas and possibly nationally. Which seems a bit pointless really. We've had 6 months to prepare for this and they're still floundering.

They suggested that this two week thing would not lead to schools and workplaces closing, so not sure what it aims to achieve?

Presumably the same as the localised restrictions in terms of limiting social contact, but on a national scale. That EatOutToHelpOut thing isn't looking especially clever right now is it?

The cynic in me says they did that scheme to boost the hospitality sector knowing full well this would be happening again and be able to tide them over for a bit
