    Why has the price of milk risen since brexit despite the fact it cannot exported.

    Tory hardlines object to COVID vaccination certificates, but they are the ones demanding that I must have a blue not red certificate of national identity (passport) to freely travel to the UK.

    Australia: 4 new case, Lock down the city. restrict interstate travel.
    UK: 4000 new cases, "By any measure the emergency is over"

    Is there any wonder why one country has 900 deaths and the other 127,000.

    I use to find this channel educational. However I no longer enjoy it. It has become biased in its tone and delivery. It encourages confirmation bias.

    The big telling moment will come this summer when restrictions are lifted on the economy and businesses are allowed to reopen.

    IF at that point protests are STILL being curtailed under "Covid restrictions" as a result of the extension of the coronavirus bill…

    Then there will be a real fight.
    At that point "Kill The Bill" protests will merge with antilockdown protests and the violence from/on the part of the police will only increase.

    The UK media have by and large FAILED to play their key role in upholding democracy.

    The "media" and the "state" have ALWAYS cooperated with regards to certain narratives… ALWAYS…

    But this, is different…
    This is sliding inextricably toward the bottom of the shit heap.

    The fact that the Conservative Party’s main opposition is a faction within the Conservative Party is just depressing

    Lots of Tory MP’s didn’t have a huge flag nor a portrait of the Queen so they all must be ‘traitors’. [sarcasm]

    The coronavirus act was extended for another 6 months because I have a funny feeling they're no more than what they are letting on
