I do. He comes across as smug, patronising and utterly devoid of any soul. The rest are just as bad, if not worse. Johnson being the peak of awfulness.

I don't think Hancock is a nasty person per se. He comes across as a useless wet lettuce to me with no backbone whatsoever. Similar to many of the others in government. If he's been playing away, he's hardly the first person on Planet Earth to do that and he certainly won't be the last.

That's where I'm at. Hancock doesn't seem horrible in the way Priti Patel is just a purely nasty piece of work. He's just a fucking idiot who's massively underqualified to do his job.

The only one of that that lot with even basic intelligence and a vague idea of what he's doing is Rishi Sunak.

England hospital deaths:

Still creeping up and would have fell today wk to wk but for yet again the large number of NW deaths comparatively - a now regular theme.

13 with 9 from the NW. Last week was 9 with 2, wk before 9 with 3

The other 4 were 2 Midlands, 1 NE & Yorkshire and 1 South East. All other regions zero.

The 9 from the NW were 4 from East Lancashire (Blackburn etc) and 1 each from Liverpool, Pennine Acute, St Helens, Stockport and Wigan.

The ages were 8 aged 60 - 79 and 5 aged 80 Plus.

i don’t think having the affair is the issue per se.

he is the health secretary telling everyone not to hug their own granny’s and stay socially distance yet he is boning his aide.

same with professor lockdown stay away , don’t go out , socially distance meanwhile I will go and bang my married mistress.

it’s hypocritical. He needs to go.today.

Please joe public plebs minimise interaction and stop the spread of the virus and I will just carry on regardless.

He and Boris were pictured breaking social distancing during the first lockdown.

All that's happened here, is it useful for Boris that Hancock's time is up, he is the perfect sacrificial lamb at the perfect time. No one will miss him.

It all clogs up the papers during a quiet period for news, rather than Boris allowing flights from India. All stage managed. Media being predictably easily led.

It's not a scalp for critics, not even for Cummings. It's a scape goat.

There is no question that the England deaths are inching up. But so far that is all they are doing and dramatically skewed to the North West as the NW lead in ventilators for past 2 weeks have shown would happen.

Though the NW ventilatir numbers seem to be slowing so there is hope we may peak here in a week or two.

Though waiting in the wings are the consequences of rising cases from all the other regions which will not really increase deaths for another 3/4 weeks I imagine and may see several areas doing so at once so the numbers could go a little above where the NW is taking us almost alone right now.

June 20 - the latest date with 5 day numbers has reached 14. It was April 23 we were last that high. Before Delta started up.

Coming up behind June 21 after 4 days is on 11 with June 22 after 3 days on 7 June 23 after 2 days on 3 and yesterdayafter 1 day on 2.

So numbers remain modest but are edging up and will rise as these are really from when NW was under half the numbder of cases it currently has.


Here are the day to day totals at 5 days of the last Month of England hospital deaths:


23 - 29 May 5 - 7 - 2 - 11 - 4 - 5 - 4 (Total 38)

30 May - 5 Jun 5 - 9 - 2 - 7 - 8 - 2 - 4 (Total 37)

6 - 12 June 7 - 2 - 6 - 5 - 9 - 6 - 5 (Total 40)

13 - 19 June 2 - 9 - 11 - 9 - 5 - 9 - 11 (Total 56)

A very notable rise after being flat for a month.

It alreasy looks like next week will be around 70 or 80.

This is from just the NW driving the numbers up recall. The other regions have to come into play next.

But NW is the biggest region and so the others combined are not 6 times as much - maybe 2 or 3 at most.

And they may not all spike at once.

And hopefully alomgside NW will by then be falling.

But there is no question death numbers in England hospitals are going upward in the next few weeks.

Yes, but these are lagging cases by several weeks remember. They come from a period when NW was miles above everywhere else and still rising.

This will change as NW seems to be flattening and everywhere else shooting up.

Those mukti region deaths are a month or so away as yet sadly.

By then NW might be the lowest contributer or one of them.

But every day that passes boosts immunity everywhere via the mass vaccine push and antibodies from cases spreading and we can hope this will translate into a smaller daily % of deaths in the other regions than NW has been creating because those other regions are those extra weeks ahead of the curve. NW ought to be the worst of it by the sheer misfortune of timing. Along with Scotland. The rest have been given a few extra weeks.

So we could suppress any dramatic rise.

That is what I am hoping anyway. But only time will tell.

so all 13 would have been doubled jabbed presumably
