Update from The House of Plague, Day 80

[elisi]

Day 80?? *blinks*

Yesterday the UK, population 66 million, had more deaths from #COVID19 than the *entire* EU, population nearly 450 million.

Not even @10DowningStreet can spin that fact away - it is utterly, irredeemably damning. pic.twitter.com/4NworFV1hb

And I can't believe I am quoting Alistair Campbell!

There was a time when 359 deaths would have hit everyone like a ten ton truck. This shower of charlatans have helped to kill so many people the country is almost numb to it. But one thing for sure - they are not on top of this. Uniquely incompetent across the whole of Europe

For those not familiar with the story:

Belly Mujinga, a congolese woman living in London, was spat at by someone who had COVID-19, whilst working at Victoria station😭 she later fell ill with the virus and died, the charges of this case have been dropped so we need #JusticeforBellyMujinga 🤎
