I got the full "It's people like you hairdryer treatment" from one of my dog walking neighbours yesterday.

Apparently she blames "people like me" for the spread of the "Indian variant" here in Bolton.

My refusal to be vaccinated according to her is spreading the infection in Bolton and Blackburn.

Despite my reminding her that she has been out walking her dog three times daily since March, 2020 without a face mask and regularly stops for 30 minute chats with other dog walkers who are also mask less, and are in my opinion the neighbourhood's "Super Spreaders," it's down to "people like me" for the rise in Covid in Bolton.

I'll give Boris his due, the Government's propaganda machine is working well.
