3. The usual Tory "defence" of their lockdown shenanigans....

... Is to claim that the general public isn't interested and would much rather that the government got on with their usual agenda of being beastly to foreigners.

The trouble is that people are interested, and actually quite annoyed by all this. The Coronavirus pandemic has been a life changing experience for almost all of us so it's quite galling to see SW1 muppets thinking that the rules they foist on the rest of us don't apply to them.

The fallout from this isn't just something remote from the rest of us either. Aside from the abysmal example being set by politicians, it's making the fight against Coronavirus more difficult and also dragging more and more people into the mire, as can be seen with the current situation with the chief executive of Sheffield Council at present.
