COVID-19: The Eternal Lockdown: Yet anther strain hits UK shores

 Soooo, the media are starting to report that the Indian "double mutation" strain of the virus is taking hold in the UK.

Yet again, the release of restrictions may be delayed because of a new foreign variant of the virus. When will the government learn? Once they have information on a new strain emerging in a country, then close off contact with that country immediately. Not three weeks after getting information about the new strain.

Yet again, the UK public are going to be held ransom by a strain of the virus that emerged on the other side of the world. Yet again the freedom we crave is being denied. Yet again jobs are at risk from an extension of restrictions or even worse a new lockdown.

Believe me, any party in the next election that promises to cut off contact with the rest of the world immediately upon receiving information on a new virus, they will walk it. 

Any party that promises to preserve the standard of living in the country, just like New Zealand did, will win. It has to. Because the shit show we've had to put up with over the past year is unacceptable.
