Day 81

So many things happening it’s hard to know where to start.
Let go with Trump a man so used to thinking he is right and who has never given a flying fuck about anyone else, he does not have the language in his brain to be able to speak sympathetically, even when he has been told to (assuming A. He has and B. He would listen anyway) He has to go!
Our leader and his band of knobheads. Do they ever consult with anyone before making ridiculous and ill thought out proposals? The Airlines are taking them to court over their proposed quarantine rule. Now the airlines are obviously their own self interest group and want to get back to making money. Did the relevant ministers sit them down and consult with them before they imposed this rule? Did they ask what might be best? They may still have taken the same decision but at least the airlines would have been included? The policing of such a rule is fraught with difficulty and abuse and it’s not as though the law has enough to cope with as it is!
Our government have pushed themselves further and further into a corner of confusion and contradictory rhetoric.

Reasonable voices with balanced views are no longer listened too. We are too wimpy and liberal. Balanced suggestions, talking, consultation, listening are no longer in vogue. Rules and regulations have to be imposed without any recourse to any interested party because we know better than you! Those in power now believe it gives them carte Blanche to do what ever they think is best. They all say they listen to all the evidence and people who are involved but all the evidence shows that they either don’t or don’t hear!

So shops start to open from Monday and I ask this question? How long will it be before the methods chosen to follow some form of separation will break down? I hope people behave but if this pandemic has highlighted anything it is the stupidity of humans. I can see all sorts of bans being imposed on shoppers for either deliberately or accidentally infringing  a shops guidance?
I confess I have like so many millions used the web for shopping during this period. Nothing new for me I have done so for years and years. There are those who have postulated the complete demise of the high street shop. This pandemic has if anything hastened that demise. Many store will become showrooms there only to display what you can purchase from them online?

Stay well
