This is far more informative about the current situation than all the pseudo-political posts doing the rounds.

It seems things are better than they seem but many on here will not wish to know or acknowledge that.
What happened to the posts from earlier?
Mods, feel free to delete like you deleted other posts that questioned statements that were passed off as facts earlier today.
This article is 18 days old, so do you have anything more recent? I am not arguing against the source, nor the information in the article, simply pointing out that the article is over 2 weeks old and, since that time, the UK (primarily England) have recorded 1000 or more cases (breaching the Government's own target) on 13 days out of 18. Similarly, since that time Birmingham has been added to the watchlist as cases spike there. Also, people in the North West (Oldham, Pendle and one other place) have been told not to socialise with others to help contain an outbreak there.
It's good to see you quoting the BBC, who you openly criticise, and it is good to see you reading their articles despite your protestations that you do the exact opposite.
I must have missed those then, although your mod kept posting waving smileys for some reason. Maybe there were other things posted after I logged off, but compared to the Organ Morgan belittling thread started by The Lone Gunman, I didn't witness anything that over the top.
Here is a story from three days ago which is on information only released on Friday by the SAGE group - even here though, the R rate figures tend to be taken from two or three weeks earlier, so, as I understand it, the current figure could be quite different;-

As you say, the new cases figures are consistently over a 1,000 a day now when it was mostly in the five to six hundred range a day a month ago. There was a story, which I was unable to find this morning, about ten days ago which claimed that getting back to 1,000 cases a day would be a cause for Government concern that a second wave was on the way and so, I'm not sure that BBC story is applicable now although it may have been appropriate at the time it was put out.
The good news as I see it is that the steady trend upwards in new cases looks to have flattened out in the last week and there isn't any great sign yet that we are experiencing what is happening in Spain and France at the moment where the upward curve has been much more pronounced, so, having been quick to knock the UK Government in the past for their handling of the virus, that is a step in the right direction for them - albeit a small one.

we might have done the worst in the world at protecting the population from this virus, but at least we've... also ****ed up our economy

Capital city knobheads leading the way to another lockdown I see.
"A number of small clusters of Covid-19 cases in Cardiff" according to this piece;-

Well, that was enlightening
Meanwhile. Johnson finds someone, or something in this instance, to blame while standing in front of what looks like being an ingeniously assembled set of school books
