Holiday leaks

We are still in the middle of a global pandemic, and yet the only thought the Mail on Sunday is, is when can we go on holiday? That most countries we would want to go to will be locked down, or the UK will be on a black list due to travel restrictions, or just trying to keep a lid on their infection rates, without importing it from the UK.

But it would mean being able to export something, I guess.

Here in the UK infections, hospitalisations and deaths are still going down, even it being the weekend, the total of 10 deaths is remarkable, and yet shows how dreadful things were at the end of January and into February when the UK had to deal with the effects of Johnson's relaxed Christmas.

The Government is planning test events for allowing crowds to race meetings and the FA Cup Final, based on vaccine "passports" or negative tests.

On the face of it, vaccine passports are a good idea, but there is the matter of data collection, and whether treatment of the virus and other health and social security services would be denied to people the computer says they are not British enough. The Government is already using data from schools to track families, so why not vaccine passports? I wouldn't trust this Government with my data, and I don't have a mobile phone, so how would that work? Or people too young to get a vaccine would be denied access through no fault of their own?

Meanwhile riot police have been drafted in to protect the statue of Churchill in London, more than a dozen of them, as people demonstate for the right to demonstrate. Elsewhere in the UK some rits have happened, with cars set on fire in Bristol, and firebombs thrown in NI, but that might be NIP related.

Fun days.

And Johnson keeps on telling us what a great job he has done.

Te Observar asks when the public will wake up to the mess that the "Brexit elite" have caused, but as DAG points out, many don't care they're lied to, many seem to encourage it, and despite Brexit being promised to deliver no downsides, it has in relaity brough nothing but downsides, but most will say its what they voted for, when it wasn't.

So the mad dance continues.
