It's a quote. Well actually it is not. This would be a quote: “Some years ago I opined that London was not really an English city any more,” J Cleese, Twitter, May 2019

Apparently Dominic Cummings picked up the virus around a week ago. I only heard about that today.

For those interested a discussion on current affairs and obviously the pandemic by fellows of the Hoover institute.

Biggest mistake was letting all those Italian skiing holiday makers come back without any checks, that is really what kicked off our community spreading, but we were still in the denial - ‘Italy has an old population, that’s why they are being so heavily effected’ phase at the time and the media were happy to parrot that line.

And the private schools allowed the pupils and teachers back in but sent them home to isolate a day later. I have heard of people saying they caught it off someone back from Italy, then obviously it multiplies. Also heard of people going to northern Italy after it all kicked off, knowing they were going to isolate on return. Edited by Rudi Hedman (09 Apr 2020 7.56am)
