27 September (Part 1) - Only too predictable

Opinion PollYou didn’t need to be Mystic Meg - why do we say that? I don’t even know who she is - to predict that the Conservatives would slump in the opinion polls two weeks after ratcheting up their Police State. (“The next set of opinion polls should be interesting.”)

Their Rule of Six is totally arbitrary as the Clown Party has freely admitted; the two metre rule is not what the World Health Organisation recommended and the pubs shut at ten edict has backfired spectacularly by creating a crush on the streets now that people cannot drift home at a time to suit themselves.

Nothing the Conservatives have done has made total sense. Covid test facilities miles away or completely unavailable. Test results slow and inaccurate and mobile phone apps that don’t work. The Prime Minister is in thrall to false statistics and is making far too many mistakes, many of which lead to premature deaths.

The weird thing is that you can find opinion polls that suggest more than 70% of the population think the Police State should be extended further which is not exactly compatible with Westminster voting intentions. I suspect the former poll results are from people who do not believe restrictions should apply to them

Goodness knows what the figures would be if the Leader of the Opposition had not proven his ineptitude as a Director of Public Prosecutions and has the charisma of a tub of Play-Doh.
