Seems that the UK government is having more blunders than the press can report. That includes Britain reporting more covid-19 deaths than the entire EU on a single day.
Two of the government SAGE scientists walked out rather than appear on a press conference where they could not openly answer any question from the press. Then a lot of SAGE decisions seem to be from Cummings and his plants when the committee should be entirely medical.
The new legal rules from government are also strange, seems that if you live separately from your partner you cannot legally meet for sex, but you can hire a prostitute as she would be "working". You could also have an orgy in your garden, providing other rules do not apply. Then you cannot take your family for a holiday in the Lake District, but a Spanish person legally can. This is bonkers, and all down to government incompetence.
