More like not listening. They knew. NHS leaders, medical advisors, science advisors, official SAGE, independent unofficial SAGE and about 1000 other individuals and institutions of note have been pointing and screaming about the big wave heading towards us while Boris has been burying his head in the sand and hoping for the best. |  |

You could be talking about Brexit there too, just use the word experts instead of all the medical experts you mentioned. [Post edited 20 Dec 2020 19:48]

Yes of course, it’s all Labours fault that people like you voted Tory and got this total shower of incompetent sociopaths.
It’s your fault.
You have the government that you deserve. |  | | |

Well, a halfway competent opposition might have run them a TAD closer. |  |

The only system we are allowed is trickle down economics, both parties argue if we should turn the tap almost all the way off whilst the other wants to have it at least dripping.
Yay, democracy. | |

It will be welcome to bankrupt Britain at this rate! As a well known virologist said on radio a while back that a bankrupt economy cannot afford a health service, that's a medicine man saying this and not a politician! |  | | |

I bet he also went on to point out that the countries who've bounced back the best economically(Australia and New Zealand, for example) have been those who locked down hardest and earliest because you cannot live anything resembling a normal life if you have an out-of-control epidemic. What we've done, has been the worst of all worlds - it's been death to anyone who's not a supermarket AND failed to control outbreaks in any meaningful manner and has resorted in escalating-yet-ineffective 'control' measures.
The notion that you can control a pandemic or control economic harm is a false one - if you want to protect the economy, you have to control the virus. | |

Australia and New Zealand have low population densities, young demographics and are at the ends of the earth geographically. It's easy to shut your borders when the nearest land mass is 7 hours by plane.
More people live in central London than NZ. Australia is the size of Europe with the population of London, East Anglia and the South East.
It's valid to compare their techniques but to say 'we should have done an Australia' is not even remotely feasible. |  |

The place we probably should be modelling ourselves on is Japan.
Aging population, island, high population density. They appear to have handled it much better, looking at the raw numbers. |  |
