Boris Johnson and the Tories appear to be taking a position of let the virus take its course through the population. I wonder how many of their pensioner voters realise now how important the NHS and caring for other people is.
I couldn't give a shit if I personally get infected, I am not in a vulnerable group and I can easily self isolate for 1 month. I just don't want to infect my loved ones or anyone else.
If I was a rich man or woman over the age of 70 I would definitely **** off right now to a hot climate. It's not been given as advice anywhere but everything I have analysed says to me that is the smart thing to do.
Jayzuuuz effing C.....drama queen much? Do you work for the Daily Mail or something? The disease WILL take its course regardless of government intervention whether tory or labour....it is what it is. Don’t think any govt would be better that another....they wouldn’t.
My mum is 86 and pretty well off and she isn’t going anywhere so stop spouting bollox mate....
Look at the WHO data on infection rates. Countries with high temperatures are not spreading this virus. It it prospering in colder climates. I take that as solid evidence it has a problem with the higher temps.
If you took offence at the suggestion the Tories are considering a harder line on this thing then I point you to Boris Johnsons comments today on This Morning
"He told ITV's This Morning programme: "One of the theories is perhaps you could take it on the chin, take it all in one go and allow the disease to move through the population without really taking as many draconian measures. I think we need to strike a balance.""

What would a Corbyn government have done in this situation? Nobody knows. He was big on funding the NHS and looking after people though, and lots of other countrys in Europe that have a problem with infections have taken restrictions to slow the spread of the virus.
