Yes Rory is a modern day politician who 'gets it'. Now lost to British politics, is at Yale in the USA as a fellow in politics. I'm not a Tory but he was at least bearable!!I wanted him as Glorious Leader but there we go. Can`t win them all and that's some sort of democracy for you....
To be fair, Boris Johnson is a modern day politician who 'gets it', in that he manages to appeal to enough people across the board despite being a lying unprincipled t**t. I agree that Rory Stewart would have been better and easier to respect.Yes Rory is a modern day politician who 'gets it'. Now lost to British politics, is at Yale in the USA as a fellow in politics.

The government's still straining every sinew I see.
I may have previously mentioned that political & electoral success is all about taking & holding the middle ground of the electorate.
Keep reading down the thread...Or you can think laterally like one of the respondents............
"That's deaths 28 days after a positive covid test.
More tests equal more positives equals a bigger pool of people who could die within 28 days of testing positive.
Germany have also stopped free Lateral Flow Tests."
I checked the last bit and it is true.
Germany scraps free rapid COVID tests for all: What you need to know
Rapid COVID tests are no longer free for all in Germany, after new rules came into force on Monday, October 11. Here’s an overview of what’s changing.www.iamexpat.de
For comparison, the UK is processing 936k tests a day and has logged a somewhat staggering 310,375,182 tests.
I will now wait for the uproar when the UK stops free LF tests and just tells folk to get vaccinated.
I won`t miss doing at least two a week.
Hang on a minute.....it was Essex telling YOU only yesterday that you need to read and think a bit more.......Keep reading down the thread...

It's simply not fair that you are now hoisting him by his own petard
Other than when you are world beating eh.The best sort to be hoisted by............ I don`t have the inclination to read the entire thread but will happily cherry pick the replies that suit my side of the debate, which is exactly what @QR did................
The numeric reality is that of those 936k tests a day some 40k a day are positive.
That gives us a potential deadpool of 1.12 million people "within 28 days of a positive test".
Some of those will die, in normal times roughly 1500 folk die every day.
Lies, damned lies and statistics eh?
Other than when you are world beating eh.
How dare they be serious about savings lives.Meanwhile in Australia`s Northern Territory...........
How dare they be serious about savings lives.
And which of the four is relatively easy to do with only positive economic benefits?Well they don't appear to be banning cars, alcohol or sugar....
And which of the four is relatively easy to do with only positive economic benefits?
It is a difficult one.True enough.
Overall I'm grateful that I don't live in a country where such draconian methods would be implemented though. But I didn't need to be persuaded to get jabbed.
