Beware Boris’ COVID Marshall Army

New enforceable laws will be introduced to ensure no more than six people gather together at any one time. Marshalls will be there to enforce the discipline, with fines and public floggings. For Balls Radio six people is a positive ratings result, but, as Phil Dobbie explains (to himself) it’s not the audience size that matters, it’s the cathartic impact of saying stuff that his family doesn’t want to listen to. Today the incoherent ramblings form a semi-plausible argument that everything Boris is doing is preparing Britain for war with Germany – just to make Churchill proud. Wars are much easier than negotiations because you don’t care what the other side thinks. Much more Johnson’s style.
