Off Topic Covid 19 restrictions have done one

Depends if any of their advice was actually taken on board, or just ignored by the Government

 

I find it hard to believe that Boris had anything to do with the hoops (and loopholes) I had to jump through to get into and out of the country.

 

...but then he went the other way? Unnecessary further lockdowns that could never stop the spread. Listening this aft to the debates on radio, one key point I've heard is that the country had an emergency plan in place for such scenarios ....but didn't use it! The plan included that full lockdowns are pointless for such viruses (shield, protect the most vulnerable instead). The initial lockdown, which was too late, was understandable, simply to buy time to figure things out, but beyond that, gross incompetence and corruption.

 

God forbid it happened again today eh!!... letting people in unchecked from goodness knows where...

 

Small boat crossings for 2022 were higher than this year so far so we were!

 

I’m astonished that you’re astonished at the lax checks through our incoming airports. For as long as I can remember the incoming checks at airports in this country have always been lax.

 

I've always thought that too. I concluded that customs people, (probably under-staffed, underpaid, etc, etc), had learnt to recognise the low hanging fruit and focused on those.

 

Shocking

 

Can you summarise
Cheers

 

Not any idea what he says or veracity of his comments, but AI has this to say:

 

You could just watch it on the bog like everyone else!
Anyway:
Macro-data during the COVID-19 pandemic in the United Kingdom (UK) are shown to have significant data anomalies and inconsistencies with existing
explanations.
This paper shows that the UK spike in deaths,
wrongly attributed to COVID-19 in April 2020,
was not due to SARS-CoV-2 virus, which was
largely absent,
but was due to the widespread use of Midazolam
injections,
which were statistically very highly correlated(coefficient over 90%) with excess deaths in all regions of England during 2020.
Importantly, excess deaths remained elevated
following mass vaccination in 2021,
but were statistically uncorrelated to COVID
injections, while remaining significantly correlated
to Midazolam injections.

From fullfact.org, a politically neutral fact checking nonprofit ...

A video on YouTube with tens of thousands of views makes several claims about the rise in the use of the drug midazolam during the Covid-19 pandemic, including that a 2020 spike in deaths was caused by “lethal midazolam and morphine injections”.
We can find no evidence to support this. Midazolam is often used to make patients comfortable at the ends of their lives, including those who are dying of Covid-19. A spike in midazolam prescriptions during one of the worst months of the pandemic is therefore not unexpected.
While it is possible that midazolam could have been used incorrectly and caused death in some cases, the evidence we have certainly does not show that the drug was used to kill thousands of people.​
