Boring Friday
A walk in the park to clear the head this afternoon. The sun shone, the chilly wind remained, less so but noticeable to me. Around me women gathered with their children, well, not around me, they just happened to be lying around in the grass in groups. The lessening of lock Down will encourage the virus no end. While dad was being shown how to play football by his ten year old daughter, his bruises will be seen in the morning, a sister bullied her selfish brother, are they not all the same, while he took forever to return the ball they were kicking around, and a dog or two took the owner for a walk it was clear people were enjoying the freedom on offer. However, I could not help thinking that while this looks good other parks will be more crowded, less space between folk and the NHS, PPE or not, will be seeing some of these people in the not to distant future.
I no longer consider watching the news worthwhile. The numbers on offer are either depressing, deliberate lies, or a result of incompetence, none can be believed. Twitter informs me 1 in 4 Virus information posted is wrong, sometimes deliberately so, I believe that. I am not sure I have ever known a more incompetent government when it comes to running the nation. They have the audacity to whine that Nicola offers info before the London spokesman does, indeed, because she is proving more efficient and if she does not offer such info it may not be seen at all! Nicola has handled this well so far, no matter how petty the attacks on her have been. She has many faults, running the country in a pandemic has shown she has some talent, talent not seen in Westminster!
It is interesting also that those involved in the 'Vote Leave' campaign no run the show at No 10. In spite of 'Vote Leave' being fined those responsible have been given jobs by Dominic behind the scenes. Interestingly this includes the Chief Police Officer who dropped the charges against 'Vote Leave.' Dominic's own Civil Service in operation.
The more we know about how the nation is run the more we question why no-one is asking questions regarding the manner in which the nation is run. If only the BBC could recruit a journalist, what? Oh they dumped them all...I see.

All the other regional government leaders have done a better job.
Dave, Indeed!
The muddle seems to be all pervasive, from government, through scientists who seem to produce unreviewed theories, privatised NHS procurement and civil servants who seem to have handed over all responsibility to private firms...a root and branch reform is needed - but won't happen.
Fly, Not under this lot. Just wait till the second wave results start to come through, then people will shout!
