Was totally confused after the 3 hour wait for this 'Address to the Nation'!!!
Slides were useless and pointless - surely these people with their exensive public school education should know how to produce powerpoint slides which can be read and understood. And, just to flash then on and then quickly off the screen shows their contempt for us all. Idea - just confound them with science - but do not give them any real opportunity to be able to read and analyse those slides. And, throughout my area SW was covered by ticketape continuing to inform me of the death of a film actor,.
Would have liked to have seen the ONS Excel sheet showing total deaths week by week this year and compared to average over past five years. Yes, slight increase this last couple of weeks, but then those figures were lower than average a couple of months ago,.
It is easy to throw numbers at us which sounds horrific out of context.
We need to remember that Covid did not invent death =in 2018 =541,589 died in UK, this was a bad year and last year in 2019, this was 'only'496,370.
Probably will be a slight increase on these this year, but surely not enough to bring about such a total chaos as Lockdowns, etc are causing.
