I really don't care if I'm honest. I'll treat any new 'pandemic' and restrictions with the same contempt I treated the last one.

Vallance is, I note, the 'former' chief scientific advisor - has he got sad at not being on the telly every day?

This Patrick Vallace?

 

 

In September, it emerged that Vallance owns a deferred bonus of 43,111 shares worth £600,000 in GlaxoSmithKline, a company which was working on developing a COVID vaccine.  This led to claims of a potential conflict of interest, as Vallance could be seen to have a financial interest in pushing for a vaccine-based response to the pandemic whether or not this is objectively the best approach.

 

 

The Labour bloke?

Yes the Chickenpox riots were a precursor to what could happen if a primate were to be treat with zero respect. 😜
