Patrick Vallance's Journal of a Plague Year

My abiding memories of the daily press conferences - seen on tv early evening, was that most questions to the scientists were intercepted by Johnson - who gave a kind of rambling initial response to each question before allowing the scientific advisors (usually Patrick Vallance or Chris Whitty) the opportunity to say a word. 

To me, the clear implication was that he was the important person there and the others were hired help.

That is essentially true. The trouble is that, when you hire help, it's a waste of money if you don't let them help.

He wouldn't even care about wasting other people's money (or tax money as its sometimes called).

In the scheme of scandals and cock ups on Covid, this is a bit puny.

If further damage is done to Sturgeon's reputation on Covid, what effect will that have on the SNP's polling. It feels to me that there is a possibility of more votes moving dependent on the impact. The Whatsapp stuff though is a bit too messy to cut through on that, I think.

I'm not convinced that the guddle over Whatsapp messages is damning as regards the Scottish govt and secrecy but the lack of minutes on the 'Gold' meetings is.

Massive cover-up underway concerning mRNA vaccines. Embalmers in the West are finding a new type of clot in the circulatory system of vaccinated people, unlike any naturally occuring clots. Yet coroner's are refusing to investigate.
