    I heard on the radio that they may start producing vaccines in Russia. That got me thinking that Russians could slip in infertility agent to the vaccines and have us all gone by a few decades.

    In order for the UK to unshackle it dependancy of Chinese tat, there'll be a need for the UK to return to its manufacturing routes. Before that can happen we need on the job training, ausbildung.. wie sagt mann auf English?!

    So no, there's no going back to 'normal', it is clearly the end of one business cycle and the beginning of another. Buckle up. The transition for the difficult to change types shall not be pretty.
    Can't we just have a socialist revolution? Now lockdown is lifting those central London Karl Marx walking tours might start up again.

    People will just go back to work and everyone will act normally out of social convention and pressure from interested parties.
    Just how you see supermarket assistents without masks because probably their manager subtly put it to them that people feel afraid seeing those and it’s not good for business.
    They’ll just push it under a big rug and get on with business.
    The rich are sheltered in their estates with servents that live on premise. They don’t care.

    That certainly seems to be The Ugly Mother****er's Cunning Plan.

    Bozo just goes along with it.
