    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    The Covid restrictions are to be progressively relaxed following this current so called 'final lockdown'.

    Personally, regardless of the vaccination programme, I think we'll see another rise in infections later in the year. It'll be caused by younger people mingling without caution as before, they won't learn and don't care. They've not been vaccinated yet and I expect many won't even bother.

    Vaccination will probably make things safer for older folk though, but I wouldn't rule out the need for another lockdown.

    To be frank I'm so sick and tired of this lockdown crap I couldn't care less what people do going forward. I'm also worn out with reading about it too. If infections spike again then big deal, a lockdown rollercoaster will never work.

    Vaccine / no vaccine; it's up to each person what they do and nobody has a right to demand that any person should have one if they don't want.

    I've deleted my Apple News app as the tiresome daily articles were the same sh*t over and over again reporting absolutely nothing new. The media have been worse than ever through this debacle, and have done nothing but scaremongering and enflaming fear for little reason.

    Bollocks to coronavirus.

    Yep. Could have been so clean and simple, but trust our government to bollocks it all up.

    Guys, I'm not taking sides here, as I can sympathise with elements of all the views that have been expressed, but let's just remember that this is a sensitive subject and that many people have died and lost loved ones as a result of this virus.

    Therefore, it's not really the place for backslapping viewpoints that others may find offensive, and so I'd ask that everyone shows due consideration for that fact and tries to be a little more considerate. Ta!

    This is absolute madness..full lockdown should be kept in place until at the very least, all of the adult population has been vaccinated.
