I am glad rates have mostly lowered though.
The government are continuing with the Christmas relaxation of rules despite a high national rate. I think this is mostly a populist move but also pragmatic in that they know people are going to see people anyway so giving them guidance. Just hoping people will mostly be sensible (although the guidance sounds not a recipe for a fun time to me).

I disagree a little in the sense that the majority of people have common sense. This is why is qualified as common. So, it’s up to the people who know about the pandemic and our “responsible” politicians to make people now the gravity of the situation.
Of course, there will gonna be irresponsible people who only think about themselves but this stupidity of passing the ball onto the population and also treat as scholars stinks so badly.
So in this I agree, your government is behaving as irresponsible and cowardly as many others, mine one, of course, included.
I’m sorry. I’m venting again. I’m so angry on how we are handling the situation.
