Thanks - Comments by the SMC appeared quite balanced, the ones I read were broadly supportive of the current government approach with some caveats but it does represent a broad spread of opinion. Re Prof Neal, I quoted him as he's at the University of Nottingham - One of our own you might say...

Re Italy, I didn't realise that it has the second oldest average age in the world which partially accounts for the high mortality rate - Not seen the figures but I've no reason to disbelieve. Additionally, the elderly tend to live with their children/extended family which again partially...

Somewhat ironic - Watson was a Brownite thug, seems odd that under the current regime he was classed as a centreist/moderate, shows how far to the left labour have gone.

Gosh, what incivesive wit, I'm overwhelmed...go and buy a brain cell eh?
