What is happening in the US and Australia will inevitably be tried on in the UK.
They're already making England into a smaller scale version of the US (land mass and population wise - obviously) by giving local authorities the power to make their own decisions on anything to do with the (fake) virus situation, mask wearing etc. etc., and enforcing whatever they choose with regard to their decisions, making each locality effectively the equivalent of a separate US state.
Watch Pamela Popper's videos and laugh and weep. She and her team are doing great proactive work in the US.
I'll put only one here to watch as too many videos make a page very slow to load.
Please don't add any more for the same reason. Thanks.
