Downing St, Conference
By and large, the right decision to continue with the road map of lifting restrictions.
Tricky.....very tricky.
Not enough is known of the properties surrounding the new variant at the moment.
Let us reconvene on AB in 10 days time.

I’m fuming about this. Stupid government gave a few days warning about closing the door on India, hundreds flew back and brought that variant with them, obviously didn’t isolate either. Why is the door not closed immediately. Now the wheels will be well and truly off our June sense of freedom.
I really hope I’m wrong.
Aarghhhhh

Whatever I think it's unfair and potentially dangerous to assign variants to actual geographical places. We were well peed when EU blamed stuff on the British variant or Kent variant. There is no evidence this came from an Indian flying back and even if it did it's not helpful.
I understand we are not allowed to call the flu pandemic of the early 20C as Spanish anymore so why is this acceptable?

I believe that the Deputy Prime Minister is about to make a statement.

Johnsomn seems to be doing his usual...turns up late because he's been stuck in the back room with the scientists, then announces that things are prob gonna be OK so he won't change the rules, but the public must use their common sense and if they don't then it's not his fault.
We'll fight them on the beaches! but only if the public uses its common sense!

the "Indian Variant" is called that because India is where that variant was first recognised and isolated. just as the "Kent Variant" was first isolated in Kent, etc. it's got nothing to do with who may, or may not, have brought it here - although given the variants' known provenance, it's a pretty fair bet.

Mushroom that's exactly my point but that's not what many of the population think, it assigns the problem to a nation or part of a nation. They will think the Indian variant is the fault of an Indian and nothing else. If I were a knucklehead who has my pub opening cancelled I might well want to go and thump the nearest Indian.
