Less people would have died if he had. They are currently re running the speeches he made before lockdown. He was completely clear about what should happen, that it was inevitable it would happen and questioning the thinking behind delaying.

Should’ve won it. He’s worlds away better than the person who won.

He was Secretary of State for International Development under May, stood in the Conservative leadership contest in 2019, subsequently resigned from the party and now lectures in politics and international relations at Yale.

Yep. Rory sharing his industrial loft apartment with Marlene Dietrich definitely beats Stephen Reicher's I've got more books than Mary Beard and Simon Hoare's studies in sepia. smile

Better put this in chat given that I moan about other people saying frivolous things about important subjects, but did anyone see Rory Stewart on Newsnight tonight. And, if so,do they agree with me that he has the coolest zoom room seen on tv over the past year? And yes, I am ashamed to say that I sometimes try to work out which part of my house I’d use if I did a zoom tv interview. Not that I would as my face would give small children nightmares....
