Interesting point.

Do you think the protestors would have stayed home if Cummings had not gone to Durham?

It is obvious.

The government deciding to move on to opening things up.

They will never admit they made a mistake listening to the wrong scientists and introduced a costly lockdown.

By:

Angoose When: 05 Jun 20 17:38

You are partially correct.
They will never admit to having made mistakes.

By:

InsiderTrader When: 05 Jun 20 17:40

Trump tried to claim similar thing earlier.

Opening back up for the economy. Would not admit he got it wrong suggesting lockdown.

By:

If this is the norm then the government could be flying solo from now on with voluntary abstention from the health experts. Would you fly with this government as pilot? Not a blooming chance.

No chance.

They made a big mistake and now as they try to reverse it but getting rid of the scientists that spread the fear without explaining they got it wrong is going to lead to confusion.

I do not trust them on getting the young and fit back to work whilst protecting the old/vulnerable until they admit they got it wrong and we see measures to protect those who need it now.

Don't blame the scientists blame the government tw@ts who decide what to believe. They ignore the bits they don't like which are probably the important bits and then pass on advice after twisting the recommendations.

I actually think Cummings is a huge part of the reason to be fair. Let's be honest a venn diagram of anti-fascist, anti-racist, Labour/general left leaning would pretty much be a circle. I think a lot of the protesting in this country is based on unhappiness of how the virus has been handled, notably in the government's them and us attitude to applying rules. The anti-racism protest has come at a convenient time for them to vent.
