UK Covid death toll

Indeed. Plus it's a good day to bury the Russian oligarch story so let's create a sandstorm of shit to make sure we can avoid answering questions about that

I love the way Evgeny Lebedev is now a Russian "oligarch" 

His business interests stretch to the Evenings Standard, The Independent and London Live TV in the UK - and he's spent most of his life here.

There is absolutely no thought or voice for those who are really vulnerable because it’s inconvenient for those that want to do anything they want and pretty much think fuck-em! How do you think their bank balances, education and mental health are coping? Are they to live under house arrest because a grown man or woman can’t cope with wearing a mask, not having a house party and having to keep their distance?

Rubbish. If you're "really vulnerable" then you should be isolating as much as possible. If the state has to help you through ir then so be it.

The vast majority of people in this country are not "really vulnerable" in a health sense, but may be "really vulnerable" in an employment, business, social  or educational sense and life for them should be going on as close to normal as possible.

In a country with a liberal history like ours I'm amazed this needs spelling out.

So what your saying is the vulnerable and those that care for them must isolate themselves until we have a vaccine? Why can’t selfish fuckwits not just try and think of others and do simple things like wear a mask and keep their distance instead of behaving like fucking toddlers stamping their feet at every opportunity?

Again stop pretending you care about the vulnerable, you supported and campaigned for a party who have disproportionately attacked them for a decade through austerity. Now you’re saying they should be supported by the state so you and your other fellow Libertarian’s can do whatever you like?
