Feest Isolation Days – 3 November
This weekend we heard Mr. Johnson, our very own Boris give us the news we had hoped we would have heard about three weeks ago. That we were headed into another lockdown. This time he has a bit more information for us than he had at the beginning of lockdown back in April. This time he has Scientific evidence to tell him that he got the timing all wrong and without a lockdown he will have presided over a country that cannot cope with the Covid wave that is hitting. He is standing up in the commons getting a vote on the plan he already announced. What a leader! Some clarity would be good. And consistency.
I don’t want this anymore than anyone else does, to be clear. But I know it is needed. Here is a fantastic video explanation for why this is necessary. It comes from El Pais in Spain and has been making the rounds, and rightfully so. If you were in any doubt whatsoever that we need to stop seeing each other, this might help you to understand why.
The election is carrying on in America and as far as Trump is concerned the doctors are lying. Here is what he had to say at a rally in Michigan over the weekend in a baseless claim that his base lapped up. “Our doctors get more money if someone dies from Covid. You know that, right? I mean, our doctors are very smart people.”
Yes Donald they are, and they have been telling you for months what to do instead of infecting American citizens and brazenly lying to them. Let us hope that sense will prevail.
Estimates from a Stanford Uiversity study suggest that 30,000 people have been infected at his rallies, with 700 people dying. It is beyond belief.
It might be a good time to watch a New York times interactive Anxious Guide to the Election.

We shall soon see what the next steps will be in this election. In the meantime, it must be time for some light relief. Let’s hope real relief arrives soon.
And, as so often, I turn to Mr. Randy Rainbow to give us the last song of the election.
Enjoy!
With love
