It is getting reported but Boris and cohorts are eroding any chance that their decisions can be overturned or scrutinised by law. He is pressing to get the laws changed so as his government can do anything they like with impunity. He is subverting the rule of law and our human rights. This has been going on for some time but only now have the media finally started to report it. Liberty and freedom, the bedrock of any Democracy are being undermined so fast, soon we won’t have any. It is bad enough we are living under the restriction of a pandemic but by the time we come out of it (a long long long time) any “freedom” we had before will have been severely curtailed by this government.
I have nothing against Xmas lights or decorations whether in the home or town centres but it does seem ironic that having just had Cop 26, we are burning electricity at such a rate if only for a short period? It may seem trivial but every ounce of energy could be vital in saving the environment, not to mention the money could be spent on other vital services. In Kettering we have three food banks, now I don’t know how bad the need is but the evidence seems clear judging by the people who queue outside! Yes we it is nice to celebrate and make our towns look festive but…………………………..
Stay well
