Theresa May is having a go at them now. AHH.. Isn't that what Parliament for: To voice all opinions, to Contribute to the deliberations... Seems to me that all is going as intended.

I heard on the radio yesterday that the govt will use the law to force children back into school in September. Apparently the number attending is very hit and miss and quite low in some parts of the country.
Obviously a lot of people are still furloughed, shielding and on sickness leave. I know two people who got sick notes in April because they were just too anxious to get the bus to work. When the furlough scheme ends there will inevitably be more children back in school.
It's probably time to regionalise this now and keep high rate areas on a tighter lockdown than other places. However, that is difficult when you're telling people to go on holiday in the UK. I know there's a balance between the economy and safety, but if what we are heading about Leicester is correct then we need to start thinking about quarantining areas. Leicester is a big centre for the British Bangladeshi community and they do travel around the country a lot visiting family. Not that I'm suggesting that's a bad thing, but I know that most of Sunderland's group have family there and in Manchester and there is constant travel between the families.
I don't know if that is a contribution to the issue at all and obviously there are other areas such as parts of Cumbria and Durham still having some high rates - I would not be planning a UK holiday in the lakes this year. It just seems to make sense to warn people that certain areas are still not seeing very low rates and to consider increasing testing and possibly tighter controls in places that are still experiencing high rates of transmission.

Johnson says he would not take the knee, as a gesture of support for BLM, because he does not believe in "gestures."
Here he is not believing in some more gestures:

Johnson has forsaken the fridge he was hiding in and has been found skulking in a tent in remotest Scotland. He has been proved to be useless so is now dodging the flax ,while sell-serving colleagues face the music.
English politics now based on a Monty Python sketch.

Johnson is most scary in pic. 6. ,where he is looking down the lens trying to look sincere and capable.

Why all the bile directed at a man who achieved a massive majority and has faced the biggest crisis any PM has faced in a century? And it now seems some seem to object to him having what appears to be a pretty modest holiday.

Any PM (of any stripe) who was worthy of the name, would be visible and steering the ship.Not leaving others to take the flak.

JJ, it's things like Evgeny Lebedev going from being classed as a security risk in the spring to being made a Lord in the summer, and the open corruption of all those Govt contracts being given - without tender - to inexperienced Government associates and Tory party donors.

I speak three languages, have a degree in etymology and compile Times level crosswords. None of those make me capable of running the UK.

I don't know, you could not be much worse than the last leader of the Labour Party.
