So much failing

The so called "Brazillian variant" is in the UK.

At least six people arrived from Brazil carrying it, five have been traced, but one hasn't.

It is understood that is is virus resistant.

A vaccine resitant strain emerging in the UK just when vaccinations top 20 million for first doses should worry us all, because all this might have been for nothing, just because the Government, 50 weeks after the start of the pandemic, failed to seal the UK's borders.

The UK is an island state, we have the ability to seal ourselves off, odd when you think that seemed to be the whole point of Brexit, so when it was the wisest course of action, the Government failed to act.

So we have seen waves and waves of infections, hospitalisations and deaths.

Even now, it is possible to snatch another defeat from the jaws of victory, and once again it is all down to Government failure.

Sick to my stomach about this.

But reading the papers this morning, it seems it is just one of those things.

I can't imagine Labour getting such a free pass in total policy failure, which cost tens of thousands of lives.
