#bbcqt We were told that the vaccines were produced way in advance, taking the risk they were not approved, in order to massively be employed if/when they were approved. Why do we now hear about ‘shortages’ or ‘bottlenecks’?
Boris Johnson “The UK will remain culturally, emotionally, historically, strategically and geologically attached to Europe”. So relieved they secured geological attachment!

Fosil plants in a limestone patio tile. Does anyone know (1) which plant, (2) how old?

People still in pubs & restaurants? Tomorrow the Bath Half Marathon?? Completely insane! Lost trust in those who make these ‘science-based’ decisions. They are based on shaky assumptions. A dangerous game. Will leave this country when it’s all over. #coronavirus #COVIDー19

The ‘heard immunity’ strategy is driven by theoretical models. These are untested with the corona virus. In my view a dangerous experiment. You may want to sign a petition to stop this. Petition.parliament.uk/30139… #ukcoronavirus #COVIDー19

Why is Britain so reluctant to cancel sport and large-scale events? I‘m afraid the naked truth is: money. It’s stupid, wrong, and gambling with the population’s health. #Corona #COVID19

The advice from behavioural scientists (I’m one) that “people won’t keep up social distancing” is untested in the current circumstances, and most likely WRONG. People are very motivated to protect family and loved ones, and in most cases, their community. #coronavirus #COVID_19

Some habits are part of ‘who we are’: those that represent important goals or values. This paper investigates the relationship between habits and identity. Habit and Identity: Behavioral, Cognitive, Affective, and Motivational Facets of an Integrated Self frontiersin.org/article/10.3…

Tweeted this last January. It still stands. @RoryStewartUK #Brexit. Incidentally, just obtained ‘settled status’ as EU citizen. Makes me feel a foreigner in the UK.

I wanted to comment on the original video, but did not want to let it spread. I'm happy someone created a version that solves that, and is an appropriate comment in itself.
