    Its to do with this mutated strain that them there Londons have. Something that has very little known about it in the public eye other that its "50% more contagious" than the current strain.

    Now all Corona viruses mutate to stay alive. It would appear that from what I have read that as a virus mutates it tend to weaken and not have the same impact on people who become infected.

    It seems that everything in London shuts tonight barring essential retail. London is currently gridlocked by people escaping.

    It's not "more ferocious than the first wave" or "spreading quicker because it's a new strain". It's spreading quicker because of the **** handling of it by this excruciating embarrassment of a government.

    The constant flip-flopping and dilly-dallying. The dire warnings undermimed by ******* jollies to castles. The perpetual, hysterical, doom-ridden news coverage. The mixed messages from 'stay home, save lives' to 'eat out to help out' a week later.

    It's spreading because nobody cares anymore, and why the **** should we when it's deadly after 10pm but not in schools. Highly contagious in call centres but safe in warehouses and ******* B&Qs.

    This is what happens when you put money before lives. When your priority is lining the pockets of your mates instead of taking viable, established help the moment it's offered.

    We're reaping the 'benefits' of every hastily flung together decision. Every piece of ignored advice and wisdom.

    All of these missteps have culminated into a full, flat-faced collapse. A fall from grace. If the world is a wedding, we're pissed-up uncle Mick, and we've just slipped on a trifle whilst playing air guitar to impress the kids.

    The tiers, the u-turns on mask advice, the inept attempts and performing CPR on a corpse of an economy, and for what?

    They're literally killing our service industry. The backbone of this little, isolated isle. At a time when we're politically at war with our biggest trading partners these lovely people are putting all of our fish into one basket.

    So address the nation all you like you honey-peddling, unkempt lovely person. We're not listening. You don't have the authority to ruin what's left of our meagre Christmas. You can't insist on running a police state with no ******* police.

    We're looking at your new clothes Boris, but all we're seeing is a naked, albino, shaved-ape. Grasping at an invisible banana of credibility.

    He who hesitates is lost.

    A stitch in time saves nine.

    They obviously didn't teach the right saying at Eton!

    This is why there shouldn't be a swear filter. This post needs swear words. It's expertly written and the swear words strategically placed for maximum emphasis and impact.

    Give us our language back.
