we seem to have entered Lockdown Lite™️ in England, where one of the only things we’re NOT allowed to do (go to restaurants/ bars) is exactly what the government encouraged us to do for the last few months.
the current government are catastrophically bad at presenting data, listening to experts, speaking honestly or making people feel like we’re all in this together. i genuinely don’t understand what they do all day.
the way that Boris Johnson talks about christmas + the NHS –and as if the fucking coronavirus will respect his new december end of lockdown – is only making this pandemic more complicated for people to understand. what’s the point in expert advisors if you don’t listen to advice.
outside of my science friends, i’ve spoken to a lot of people who aren’t taking this seriously. not total QAnon deep state etc, but just people who think it won’t get them and ∴ shouldn’t have such a big impact on their lives. BJ’s waffle really isn’t going to convince them.
