I'm the exception. I'm only going from memory , but you end up in arguments and insulting people even on the Forest thread, not to mention the same in Labour discussions when I'm not here. I'm not callous. We live in a world where the Tories are being moaned at for whatever they do. The demographics on here just hate the Tories full stop. I'm sure they have made some wrong decisions, but I've seen no criticism of Labour in Wales (why didn't they lockdown early), or the SNP in Scotland (hid the Nike? conference infection) etc.
You blame the Tories for 60,000 deaths. Did they kill the people in France, Spain, Italy,Sweden, Belgium etc too ? Have you allowed for the fact they were put in an impossible situation, that the science advice was conflicting or poor, that England is the most densely populated large country in Europe , obesity etc.
What is callous about stating the fact that people will die from non-covid illnesses if things don't get back to normal. What is callous about actually stating scientific views. I don't pretend to know if they are right, but they are the best info we have.
Interesting to read that whilst the Unions are doing their best to stop the country getting back to work, Starmer has been sending his own children to school. People talk about schools "re-opening". As far as I can tell, some of them never even closed, though I appreciate that dealing with more will be difficult.
Also strange that independent sage said the risk of a child dying at school is about the same as the risk of them dying in a traffic accident. So sending them back to school is "callous", but letting them die of sepsis, traffic accidents etc out of school is ok .
