Here We Go Again

Let’s do what failed to work last time, it’s sure to work this time around.

Boris Johnson has announced fresh measures to curb the spread of coronavirus including mandatory masks in shops and PCR tests for travellers entering the UK after two cases of the Omicron variant were detected in the country.

Amid mounting global concern over Omicron, named a “variant of concern” by the World Health Organization on Friday, the prime minister set out a series of steps the UK is taking to maximise its defence against Covid-19.

No. I didn’t comply with this insanity before and I’m not complying with it now.

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

H. L. Mencken

How long before the population at large decides that enough is enough? How long before whatever these charlatans say, everyone just carries on as before and ignores them?

  1. “How long before the population at large decides that enough is enough?”

    Sadly, judging by what I see round here, not for a long while…

    Oh, and you’ve probably seen that “Omicron” contains the same letters as Moronic…

  2. I have said this before, but……
    “The UK government have imposed social distancing rules, lockdowns, mask mandates, bans on seeing your family and friends, restrictions on travel and socialising, coerced or mandated 80% of the population into being injected with ‘experimental’ drugs, and been burning one witch every week.
    They now recognise that these measures have not stopped the virus and have had a rethink.
    From Monday they will be burning two witches a week…………..

    I am hoping the lunatics will give up soon but somehow I doubt it.

    • Breaking news; nationwide Witch shortage hits UK. BREXIT to blame, say critics.

      Other news; someone had a sniffle in Barking, Essex. Emergency services deployed, local authorities declare state of emergency and demand more witches (with masks), as they have a lower carbon footprint than coal or natural gas.

      Virus ‘not a problem’ says senior physician. Denounced as a witch by the Daily Mirror. Immolation on Thursday after show trial.

  3. From what I’ve seen here in North Notts I think there may be a majority who aren’t wearing infection enhancers. If Bozo and the “experts” make them necessary again I’ll have to print a new exemption certificate: the old one is rather tatty.

    • I’ve still got mine in the tank bag. I’ll dig it out again. I will not wear a mask, I will not engage in antisocial distancing and I will not play the lockdown game. I’ll die on this hill if I have to.
