And now for something completely different:
"a new poll finds large parts of the public clamouring for new restrictions this winter. As many as 42% back the return of social distancing, while 20% want to reimpose the Rule of Six immediately and over 60% want mask mandates back on public transport"
A dark winter indeed!
I have to wonder about this poll's selection criteria. Was it properly randomised? Did it include the appropriate percentage of small business owners (for example)? And perhaps MPs? Certainly the fearful and well-off seem to be very well represented.
"A YouGov survey this week shows the same lingering authoritarianism"
Are we all doomed?
"Taking the tube to work, I see no more than one or two masked faces per week"
Hmmm ... perhaps all is not quite as it seems ...
