love* in the time of plague (and by love* i mean brexit* and other dreary matters of uk politics)

lol like they'd let mass death get in the way of commerce

Very clear the stats for cases are going to get suppressed which will enable the govt to avoid a 2/3 week lockdown for as long as possible.

To follow up, here's the letter we've sent to @BorisJohnson. We don't need a 'moonshot', just ability for residents to access a test locally, while national system was a mess & not everyone knew they could walk in, stopping it without warning is a scandal. https://t.co/V2MZfFo6Gk pic.twitter.com/bHlmND3HZg

Charlie Elphicke applied for legal aid and it was refused. He owes his estranged wife Natalie £100,000 which she loaned him for legal fees, he owes more than that to his lawyers.

His family home in Kent is being sold, with £400,000 equity to be split by divorcing couple

Poetic justice after he consistently voted to restrict and reduce legal aid. It would be funny if it wasn't destroying innocent lives.

gang of at least a dozen hanging in the little park by me just now, got a good mind to report them to Ed Mili

mrs g’s cousin has just reported on fb that her son’s primary school is closed until the 24th because every teacher has the rona

Saw a weird clip of Patel seeming to claim the rule of six would do nothing to prevent infections but that she'd narc people out anyway.

I mean that's vmic

"The daily number of coronavirus cases has risen above 3,000 again. Today’s count is 3,105, up from 2,621 yesterday. Today’s total is lower than was recorded at the end of last week, but it is still only the fourth time the daily total has been above 3,000 since the end of May. The recent trend - a sharp increase - is being maintained."

And given many can't get a test..

Was completely impossible for me to get a test when I checked last night, and I'm in suburban London

Grenfell files ‘lost forever’ after laptop wiped, inquiry hearshttps://t.co/RBKJnizXtg

— ITV London (@itvlondon) September 14, 2020

That sounds like it's nothing to do with the wiping of the laptop and everything to do with crucial files no longer being on the server where they were supposed to be.

Nice double punch of nothing matters there.
