Therefore I find it hard to be critical of the notion of going into lockdowns, more that it took so long to go into the first one. By contrast, I never agreed with the WAG’s decision to close things down ago over the winter of 20/21 at a time when the most vulnerable had been given a vaccine.

I do blame the UK Government for ignoring the results of the Cygnus project that tested responses to a pandemic held a few years before the advent of Covid and I think the Public Enquiry currently taking place will be pretty damning about many aspects of the response to the crisis. I may be wrong, but I doubt if there will be a huge amount of criticism regarding the concept of lockdowns, more about how policy evolved as methods of combatting the virus were found.
I was as paranoid as anyone when this started, and as it was starting we had to attend a funeral in Leicestershire, travel wasn't curtailed and we booked a night in a hotel as to not have to go up and down in the day, having worked in filtration a few years earlier reached out to former colleagues to obtain the filter media used in N95 masks which we manufactured, bought 2 boxes of latex gloves and travelled up to Leicestershire masked up and with Latex gloves driving my own car!!! just arriving at the hotel was almost being in a hospital, at the funeral there were a couple in attendance who had recently been to I think the Ascot festival, we carried on with this BS (not known at the time) for sometime, as it went on it was IMO, becoming obvious that all was not as was being peddled out, just going to Lidl on Saturday mornings and being treated like lepers to get food all whilst walking past the middle aisle along with the clothes being plastic sheeted off was a bit comical, I never initially thought of anything other than what i was hearing from Johnson and his lieutenants on the box each evening, blaming government's wasn't a thing for me regarding Convid for a long time, but now having had a long time to reflect, I'd love to live long enough to see some of these bastards hang (if it has been indeed a nefarious act), but I'll die well before an agreed and accepted origin of Convid is accepted by a majority. if you think Kennedy was assassinated in 1965 and any facts around this are only just being dripped out, the phrase conspiracy theory was introduced to the masses for this event, the wheels of justice can take a long time Dookie, and the rest of the youngsters on here will find this out as they get older, the Q saying is, "Future Proves Past" Yes it was a pysop and just another division tactic, anyway i note last night that RFK junior intends to run as an independent, not sure who will benefit most from this but at least we'll get a further distraction for next years election and something else to fall out over, initially, and if its Biden, Trump and RFK, he'd be my guy if i was an American but he is a climate fanatic I think, so it would be a holding the nose vote to remove the other 2.
