Aye, There was a bit in a podcast with Elon Musk, where Joe Rogan said something about robots having the capacity, in a decade or so, to move so quickly that you'd need a strobe light to see them. Elon Musk replied that we're 'probably' already there.

Anyhow, this talk of tech is detracting from the shitshow that is Downing Street.

Downing Street is tech. Soon the PM will be AI , as we are told they are less prone than humans to circuit malfunction. It will be illegal to discriminate against artificial MPs, just coz theyre not flesh and blood.

Don't kid yourself. A spad is not a puppeteer. Little Dom might influence policy but he's replaceable like everyone else. It'll blow over. Politics is a road show and things move on.

So lockdown continues to be lifted.....in England.  I still can't even take my family for a trip to a local forest.  Not even the forest where I work every day. 

 

Apparently Prince Drakeford will be announcing something today....let's hope it is a little more freedom as I think many people round here are just ignoring the lockdown anyway.

How much is the fine if you take your family for a walk in the forest? Could be a price worth paying? I doubt the Police will be bothered these days considering the easing we're seeing in Scotland and England in the next few days, and if everyone else in your area is out why not join them?

More inconstancies and muddle.

 

At the moment my family and I can meet anther person from another household outside, abiding by social distancing.

 

As of Monday we cannot. We are six and that's the maximum number. So this for us is a tightening of the lockdown not easing.

 

Why on earth is it not your family plus another family or plus say 3 other people from another family. A family group are highly likely to infect each other within a household, so restricting their number for a meeting is utterly pointless.

 

They really are a set of clueless clowns, just making it up as they go along.
