It is mate, it's titled Bacofoil and all the attic or basement dwellers who know better than all of our experts, and the global experts will light a torch with you and follow you into battle. It's taken a year but we've actually just started to 'get a grip'. Deaths are falling, cases are falling have some trust in the NHS vaccine rollout and look forward to larger crowds at the beginning of next season and hopefully full unrestricted travel at the earliest point after. Patience is the ultimate virtue. Yeah the experts have done really well so far haven’t they.The vaccine rollout is brilliant without doubt but that’s because the NHS are leading it and it hasn’t been outsourced to Tory friends. It's difficult to justify blaming the "experts" when for much of the time their advice hasn't been followed fully or properly by the idiots in the Cabinet, and especially by the number one idiot in 10 Downing Street. If their advice had been followed and restrictions brought in at the correct time for each of the lockdowns then it is most likely that things would not have been as bad. However, as Michael Gove famously said, we've had enough of experts. Project fear and all that. Such a pity that the experts were generally right and are being proved so now by the absolute shambles that is Brexit. And still the tories have a lead in the polls. Well, we get the governments we deserve, unfortulately.

Yes the experts have done exceptionally well. A global effort in vaccine development with approvals in less than 9 months for a novel coronavirus is outstanding. Witty and valance haven't been far off the money when it came to warnings, and even the expected data factoring in no restrictions wasn't that far off. You rightly highlight the biggest success of the pandemic being the rollout by the NHS (as did I) and the failures date back to Op Cygnus and gross incompetence in the current cabinet. I completely get people are frustrated but when I see how close we are now getting to cracking this, the bleating and moaning for the sake of a few more months is way OTT. The games are on telly, you can even have one of your mates round round a beer in the garden and the seasons nearly done. We're not even in the bloody semi! 😅 Patience and perspective is all that's needed.

At some point soon we have to get back into the mindset of thinking about what we can do not what we can’t do.
My fear is that with the extra-cautious approach now being favoured by the government, the restrictions will run on until it’s late enough in the year that the winter virus season will be looming and there will be voices calling for another winter of restrictions just to be safe.
By failing to make hay while the sun shines this summer we could be condemning ourselves to waiting until spring 2022 to see something close to pre-pandemic normality, which would be catastrophic for industries like hospitality, retail, and indeed football.
