Long, hard winter? I thought Germany had Covid under control?

At least that's what we were told when Boris and Rishi were cocking it up back in April.

I thought we were talking about nations divided not one more than the other. Diseases don't seem to mind what is dividing them.

Oh gosh they are and then some. I know of no German families divided down the middle with political turmoil like B.

Sure Bavaria has been trying for independence for ages. But that's not going to happen.

Consensus for who? If populist opinion differs then how do you have a consensus? or do you just means a consensus amoung the elite/ruling class?
