There's a frikkin' surprise

As paraphrased from My Cousin Vinny.

For weeks now, dating back to the middle of September when Johnson declined the advice by SAGE to have a two week lockdown, three weeks after Starmer suggested it, and three days after in an interview with the Hate Mail declaring he will do ANYTHING to prevent a national lockdown, it is highly likely that from Monday at the latest, the whole of England will be locked down.

The lockdown will between four and six weeks and so will be longer, and harsher that needed if done in September.

If only someone could have fortold all of this.

Sigh.

To see May and then Johnson have the sam tactic over and over agan, making the same mistake year on year, to see Johnson make the same mistake as in March when he delayed the lockdown until it was too late condemming 20,000 people to an early death, he has done the same in the Autumn too.

Hundreds, if not thousands extra will die. Many more will fall ill, businesses will go bust, people will lose their homes due to lack of support, just so Johnson could avoid a confrontation with his own backbenchers, that was put ahead of what was good for the country.

Again, the Government has briefed two of the most Tory-friendly newspapers, so that news leaks out, causing more confusion and uncertainty.

Anyone who thought this was going to go any other way in the balmy barmy days of the summer when the Chancellor brbed people to go and eat out, so spreading more of the virus about, clearly hasn't been payng attention.

Once again, I hate being right.

November will be unbearable grim.

December worse.

But that will be nothing compared to January. Then we will be wishing it was November again.

Stay safe and hold those you love, close. Wear masks when you go out, only go out when needed.
