The Rolling Lockdowns of the UK

As Covid cases have begun to rise in the UK the government has taken the steps to impose regional lockdowns. However, this has caused anger for many just returning to business after weeks of lockdown and uncertainty.

Two weeks ago when the Prime Minister was asked about the restrictions in the north of England he was unable to give the correct answer. Many have said this points to the fact the restrictions are too complicated.

In the devolved regions of the UK the restrictions are different again. Scotland has just seen the central belt region have the harshest restrictions in the UK imposed. With hospitality shut down. Business owners have warned many of them will not be able to reopen. There is also widespread anger that regions have been shut down where little or no Covid has been reported.

Minnesota Newspaper Laughs at Trump’s Covid Diagnosis.

A Minnesota newspaper has mocked the President, saying they find it funny that the President and First Lady have tested positive for Coronavirus.

The newspaper has also condemned liberals for taking the moral high ground in wishing the President well.

Emily Cassel Editor-in-Chief, wrote “So President Trump and the First Lady have COVID. Man, anyone else just in a really, inexplicably good mood this morning?”

She went on to say,

“Trump was in Minnesota [on] Wednesday for an enormous outdoor rally in Duluth and a big ol’ indoor Twin Cities fundraiser with some of the state’s wealthiest GOP donors. (Gee, I sure hope those billionaires are alright!!!),” she wrote.

“Meanwhile, feeling a hit of dopamine for the first time since … March? 2016? … It’s the first time in a really long time scrolling isn’t inherently doomscrolling,”

Cassel is not the only liberal to take delight in the diagnosis. Some have gone as far as to hope for the President’s death. One tweeted: “I think I speak for everyone when I say that it would be insanely funny if he died of the coronavirus,”
