well Carole, 14 days on, deaths and infections are dropping like a stone. You and your band of 1200 so-called 'experts' turned out to be utterly, hopelessly wrong. As always. As you aren't a virologist, or even a scientist of any description, it might be the best if you wind your neck in and refrain from alarmist commentary on subjects you clearly have no knowledge of.

It's August 2nd as I write this, and UK cases have plunged since Freedom Day. Will there be a correction posted to this article?

What even you refer to as "failures" and "mistakes" are neither. They only appear to be, whilst on fact they are part of what has been the policy of this government from day 1 of the pandemic: achieving herd immunity. I could see that throughout, and I'm just a learning support worker at a college, with no political experience. Once they saw that the policy would overwhelm the NHS, they had to pursue it in a sort of stop and star fashion, pretending that their deliberate self-sabotage was just inefficiency for which they could sack someone and put someone else in. It is screamingly obvious, yet I don't hear ANYONE spelling it out. Even you, Carole, speak of incompetence and blunders. Like hell it is. It is a cleverly played daring game, only not playing to our rules or for our benefit. The sooner someone openly says that, the better. If I was a journalist with a voice, I would say it. But I am, like I said, just a LSW...

You are absolutely right. I have felt the same throughout - there isn't incompetence at all, just the illusion of it. This is all part of the plan. If the NHS is overwhelmed, there is a perfect excuse to get private companies to step in, to sell off bits until it is all private. And with a population of people unwell with chronic covid-related conditions, plus the extensive waiting lists, those private companies will be in line for a fat profit and we will have no choice if we want healthcare. It is disgusting, abusive and reprehensible, but certainly not bumbling.

We need the International community to help not watch. Is this not an abuse of all of our human rights?

Seeing as her and her 1200 lefty mates were all about as wrong ,i suggest you stop listening to the utter made up nonsense Carole Codswallop and her 1200 lefty mates spout, and pay attention to unbiased honest sources, and I dont mean that other bastion of Marxism, SAGE
