A former colleague of mine sent a message with a photo of Boris making his speech about how he fought off those who would lock us all down again, and how we needed to... blah blah blah
Under the photograph they wrote
"Is anyone still listening?"
Not me, I replied.
We've all stopped listening.
The other day in the queue for the self-serve checkouts, the big guy in the black mask behind me said "I can't wait for this to be over". I nodded.
Most of us know this has gone on too long and the measures are not justified by the facts. Some people are still scared, but some people will always be scared of something.
The handful of Ministers who used 100 different Acts of Parliament to pass 224 different regulations without a single vote are trapped in their own hysteria.
And we the people are twiddling our thumbs, waiting for them to catch up, like they were the huffing, puffing stragglers on a country walk.
