It remains the case that the UK is fortunate enough to have a global success story on vaccine delivery, there are many places in the world that can only look and wish that they were so fortunate.

Or sadly don't think that because they do not think it's nessessary!  :(
We have friends in Iowa who have had the same sort of experience that Poggle reported.

There are several of this style of leader - arguably Modi is a bigger nut.

Steve it's not luck or lack of it. Both Trump in US and Bolsonaro in Brazil denied covid was serious, result over 500000 dead, Kovinda is leading India in the same direction but then he is religously motivated.

I was using "lucky" in the Gary Player sense of the word (In case it wasn't apparent).

People just do what they want to do, and if they're white & middle-class they generally get away with it (see also "extinction rebellion" protests).

You can almost smell them.  I used to live in Wilton, about 10 miles from Stonehenge.  Middle-class this trash are not.  Burglaries, shoplifting and theft generally doubled over the Summer Solstice when this lot turned up.  The white middle-class tend to be the group that abides by social convention and toes the line.

I think this thread needs to stop and cool off for a while folks.

If we can do that Voluntarily that would be better than it being shut down.

Thanks

What a strange trajectory this thread has taken, from annoyance about low pay for Chinese workers to offensive remarks about the British working class.
