What you have to imagine here is that we never got a chance to form a new government before this hit. All parties agreed to work together. The government can formed at a later date. How often do you see something like that happen? Leo was a doctor before he went into politics. As were another two of those who work with him. But all the talking is been left to somebody from the health board. He will become somebody if he lives through this. He gives the evening briefing to the public on deaths and new cases. He tells us where exactly we are at. Leo makes the occasional speech to the nation. Come together by staying apart. Well done Leo. Is the other chap we hear all the time. He has a name but as he is new to all of us it is not one we would remember just yet. He hides nothing at all. Because he is so honest, the rest have to be just as honest. He said this might go on for many more months. None of this it will be gone in a few weeks. He is simply trying to slow it down. Honest again. That nobody can actually stop it. But by slowing it down the hospitals won't be as packed. The man has never promised anything at all. No miracle cure. No instant fix. That is not going to happen. The first job is to even out the new cases. Not have more every day. But even the same number for a few days. Then you hope that begins to go down in number over the next week or two. In other words, more cases will happen for a while yet. His job? The slow those cases down. They will still be the same in number. But it would be better over a longer period of time. Rather than all at once.
People were asked to report house parties over here. Which I do get. Crowds of people in one house. But fair to say, apart from the odd incident, nothing much has happened. People are doing what they were asked to do. You will always get the few idiots. They exist all over the world. They think nothing will happen to them.
Had heard of someone saying to let the old die. Think 2 people said something similar. This is one the UK government have to accept they can't beat alone. The thick upper lip of the good old English. That will do nothing at all. Hold those hands up and say they got it wrong and want help. Nothing wrong in doing that at all.
