        Yes, I have been several times.

        They wear masks to protect others.
        The government gives clear, unambiguous guidelines
        If an official or high level person messes up, they accept responsibility and resign.

          So you pick two countries at opposite ends of the spectrum... what about all the other European nations?
          Perhaps you should do a little more thinking.

            I will do my best sir, but it is not a strong point of mine. I get by on looks and a posh accent usually.

              Research with "may be" and "could be" conclusions.
              I actually first read it in another newspaper who linked to the journal they got it from, so also read the journal article. However I could only find the Fail link when I Googled to post on here.

              Most of the newspapers just copy articles from press releases or organisations like the PA, then put their spin on it. In this case the spin isn't off.

                What European nations are like the British politically and culturally?

                Those who use to have empires like France, the Netherlands and Belgium? Those who have greater trust in their governments like Sweden, Denmark and Norway? Those that were colonies of another European country like Ireland and Iceland? ...

                  My late journalist friend (RIP), used to get wound up by newspapers and lazy journalists who would copy and paste from press releases without questioning the content. From the PR point of view, the easiest way for a company or organisation to get publicity is to write a research report.
