It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
Partly, but mainly that if ANY of the decisions currently being taken by the government (including restrictions/controls imposed on our freedoms) are 'seen' (note not necessarily actually responsible) for successfully fighting the virus and 'saving' everyone, then people will continue to vote for them.
In a nutshell, that's the gain.
What was that "moonshot" bollox BJ was on about?Thing is you have to vaccinate 68 million people, that's going to take years to complete.
Yes, that's what I'm hoping for (both)!Enough people will have it voluntarily to create herd immunity in any case. And as you said this morning, it's already disappearing from the headlines. When it's no longer news, people soon forget to be angry or worried about it.

People needing coronavirus tests have been sent to a centre in an area under local lockdown despite it being closed, according to local politicians.
MP Chris Bryant said the situation in Clydach Vale, near Tonypandy, Rhondda Cynon Taf (RCT), was an "utter farce."
The site is run by Serco and slots are booked via the UK government-run online system.
The UK government, which oversees most of Wales' coronavirus tests, said testing capacity increases daily.
All those who booked at the Clydach site were contacted and advised to go to an alternative site in Abercynon where they will be tested, a spokesman said.
These are the people who are supposedly running the country.. Couldn't run a snackbar..

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“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!”

SNP MP Margeret Ferrier has kinda flown in the face of anyone else and become a super spreader despite the advice.

If the populous thought it was necessary then why did they need the government to tell them to wear masks in public? Or rather in shops, and cafes, but only you're at the counter, or why its ok to go to the pub, but they would have left at 10pm anyway, cos you know they all thought this was necessary, even though two weeks before they were going about life pretty much as normal.

100% compliance was never going to happen, it never happens with anything. The fact is the vast majority complied.
Masks are not compulsory, face coverings are. Most masks and face coverings will do nothing or next to nothing. The whole 'mask' thing was to get people out and spending again once they realised that the situation was nothing like as bad as initially thought and the lockdown was killing the economy.
The 10pm pub closing is just another example of the government 'being seen to do something' to appease the pearl clutchers even though it's a pointless exercise.
