Cases are going down. Lockdown is working. All in spite of this hateful government. What government? They are nowhere to be found as a positive force in people's lives. They just exist like a spectre to haunt us, to remind us what they think we owe them. They can go to hell, I am tired. Winter is long.
The weather looks to turn once again. Is this winter's traditional last gasp? Unlikely this early on, but Spring grows nearer with each passing day. I'm not sure how much longer this can continue. There is no support, nor is there any likelihood of any. Nothing short of ending the lockdown, which would be disastrous in other ways, can change things. We are stuck, placed here by the arrogance of idiots. Speaking of which, here is the always ironically named James Cleverly on why the borders should remain open.

James Cleverly - I don't know
Charlie Stayt - So you don't know... so the obvious conclusion is to close the borders to all countries. #BBCBreakfast pic.twitter.com/mlt4Xljdc6
How is it that, when faced with the opportunity to be Tory, they bottle it? I don't want border controls. I'm an internationalist, but this situation necessitates some kind of response that involves restricting travel. Maybe there are better ways to do this that won't, inevitably, allow the rich to dodge the rules, which they will of course. There is no doubt oligarchs and oil barons will use this period to get through, 'fast tracked' by the government into their gentrified estates and mansions, equipped with 'poor doors' preventing them from the clearly depressing site of paupers.
James is a Tory because he's too stupid to be anything better. He's just saying what he's been told to say. Although it's so spectacularly stupid it's possible he dreamed it all up himself, thinking he'd sound smart. He's a thug; a Tory boot boy.
