This is the same Sir Patrick Vallance who was talking up herd immunity in the 2nd week of March last year, only to reverse that a week later and advise on a lockdown."In a recent interview chief scientific adviser Sir Patrick Vallance said: "The lesson is go earlier than you think you want to, go harder than you think you want to, and go a bit broader than you think you want to in terms of applying the restrictions.""
Shame Johnson didn't do it. But he did do 'everything possible'.
I've not read the article, but what's happened to "respect the right of all people to choose the form of government under which they will live"?That really doesn’t surprise me you think that, but let’s take a look.
They’ve sensationalised the opening headline points with :
Then they’ve said Johnson would win the legal case but Sturgeon could progress with an illegal wildcat referendum, if she does this she’s finished not Johnson.
Then it talks about the British government’s response to Covid, failing to mention the great big whopping fact that the SNP have had devolved powers to impose their own restrictions and do what they please in Scotland. In that sense, if Sturgeon had done such a great job that people claim, the SNP would be in a great position, with low deaths and the vaccines being in such great shape in the UK.
Google Business Insider bias, they’re a centre left publication, aligned to the SNP and this, as you’ve said, is a wishful thinking opinion piece, it’s garbage.
Nobody in the UK parliament is signing this off for another decade I don’t think, then who knows how public opinion will change.
I do think Scotland is more of a risk than NI, I debated this with someone recently who said that it can’t be as the PM can just say no, but pressure will build, I just see it being similar to the Catalan issue, where each leader over the next decade just kicks it down the road, there will be peaks and troughs of the movement and it’ll continue indefinitely.I don't they'll be able to avoid it if support in Scotland continues to build at a pace. Guess we'll see for ourselves how it plays out in the coming years.
Makes me wonder of the Boris bots are his doing to fend off a leadership challenge.At PMQ's he is woeful yet again - I note that he has little backing from his own side this week. His every utterance is met with a stony silence. He is done.
