British Prime Minister Boris Johnson on Saturday announced a new month-long lockdown for England after being warned that without tough action a resurgent coronavirus outbreak will overwhelm hospitals in weeks.

Gotta wonder when these genius political leaders will screw up the courage and/or good sense to realize that an increase in cases does not indicate an increase in hospitalizations or fatalities. In fact, looking at the statistics it is clear as fucking day that this 'plandemic' is well under control and not nearly the scourge we've been told it is. Was it Jefferson that prescribed watering the tree of liberty with blood?
