I think we can expect some more tomorrow, Project Fear will be on overdrive, I've read two articles this weekend, one on the BBC website, one the Spectator, both drawing conclusions based on lies and FAKE NEWS, and I know they're lies, I check the stats they're talking about daily, and they are simply telling porkies about them, they must assume no one will check the stats they're quoting and they can get away with it, and possibly they're right and they can. The bull**** readings will be off the scale tomorrow, but the vast majority will swallow it, for some reason it's what they want to hear.

It wouldn't surprise me if Boris tries it on with Liverpool, he'll tell us the tier system, lockdown and a new mass test and trace system has worked a miracle, but the reality is that cases in Liverpool have been falling since October 8th and deaths have been falling since October 31st.
I was with a publican and his wife in Little Lever today. The trials and tribulations the State apparatus is putting a decent couple through is nothing short of criminal. Their livelihood and business is now in "Critical" mode and is desperately short of major financial intervention.

Meanwhile us numpties allow the Tory driven "Chumocracy" to dish out billions of quidsworth of COVID related contracts to their mates and Conservative party supporting cronies without any sign of a transparent tendering process.

Why the **** are we tolerating this widescale corruption with hardly a whimper?
