Well, yes, ossie. Very true.

Trust WM. I trust their instinct for survival, no further.

For themselves: yes. For the rest of us?

Ask: who controls the recording, monitoring and regulatory systems, them or us? Parliament with a super majority is nothing more than a rubber stamping exercise.

For themselves, yes. If they fudge this, questions will be asked, will be answered and will be a problem for them at the next election.

Whilst they may have a giant rubber stamp, it is not to be used without caution. Because the spectre of the public is always behind them. It may be 4 years away, but that 4 years will fly.

This is what is driving the Tory splinter group. They are aware that they will only have a real 3 years to prove they didn't screw everything up before they are, once again, before the chopping block.

How about 'No jab, no job' for new employees. This is the latest from out "trusted" friends, and do not forget that your existing Ts & Cs can change.

It might be fine if the vaccines could guarantee that you could not pass on the virus or become ill, but they cannot. Not having the vaccine puts the individual at personal risk of serious illness, it does not affect the rest of us.
