    Another reason to just admire Jacinda Ardern. This is absolutely spot on :emoticon-0148-yes:

    Funnily enough, Ardern's often targeted by angry white men of this country for "imprisoning" her subjects

    4.9m Covid cases last week in the UK indicate that maybe our angry white men should turn their rage onto a deserving target

    Hearing today that there are House of Commons "parties" that have now come to light and may well have contravened Covid laws. With this drip feed of contraventions, there is almost a regulation abuse fatigue setting in. When in fact one contravention is bad enough and every other is equally bad. Now is seems almost commonplace to find out about another one.

    The problem for me is this. Every time one of these is uncovered the line is that they've now got their house in order and lessons have been learned. That means there have been umpteen opportunities to come clean about all the events that were not known about. The underlying process is therefore to see what they can get away with. The idea that maybe the next one, or the other ones we don't know about they'll get away with. I can't express how much this attitude disgusts me. IMHO it's almost as bad to try and cover up the events we don't know about as to have done them in the first place. It's too late now but there should have been some kind of sliding scale of punishment, with the top punishment being awarded for not revealing events that contravened the rules when they knew that investigations were underway.

    The problem is now that no matter how many contraventions come to light, people will assume there were others that they got away with (even if there weren't). So I'm not sure they've chosen the right approach here.

    Yeah, it's not like he posed for a photo with several lines of coke on a baking tray

    Which, coincidentally, is the Tory version of the cost of living crisis

    Somebody needs to make a venn diagram of hardcore Leavers and people not permitted to operate heavy machinery, just to see how much like a circle it looks
