As far as I can tell, there is no political leader or party that takes a thoughtful approach to this. So yes, vote out the incumbents, but who is it we vote in?
The media? They care about nothing other than getting clicks and eyeballs, damn the facts.
'Don't Panic", makes sense to me. And I have the above information from twitter sources, mostly reliable, so, I did extra checking and Yes!, Mark you have confirmed my opinion of the above. Thank you. And no, I am not afraid of Omicron or any of the rest of it. This has all turned into such a crap show. Trying to find reliable information, not only from my GP, but from Government in general is exhausting, and I'm retired so have the time and means to do so. Pity the people working, with families and have no time to look into what is in their best interest.
Even the media, I find some days I just have to shut it off. In the past, for many years, I have listened to talk radio, and now finding, I just can't stomach the fear postering. The last straw was a media radio host giving flack for someone not wanting a 'smartphone'? And the caller was clear they did keep themselves informed by newspaper, internet etc, and willing to live with their chosen news sources. He was ridiculed, and dismissed. Sad. I turned off the radio feed and have not turned it on since. I deleted the app from the phone. When did we lose sight of 'ethics'? Bottom line IS 'ethics'. We either have them or we don't. But like I said. I'm not afraid of Omicron. Or Cancer, or Heart Disease or whatever takes me out.
