December 2
Confusion reigns. With Christmas just a few days away the prime minister is, as usual, dithering.
The situation is being revised hour by hour, he says, which means that, with his cabinet spilt over ‘cancelling Christmas’ or carrying on partying, he is between the devil and the deep blue sea.
He is probably thinking of ways to ‘party’ even if everyone else has their Christmas ruined.
And it makes me think what a powerful influence the ‘festive season’ has on us. We must be with our family - our ‘loved ones’. We must have the turkey and tinsel. We might even think of the real meaning of Christmas.
If, as seems likely at this late stage, Mr Johnson holds firm on his believe that there is no need need for further restrictions our Christmas 2021 will just about survive….
If he is wrong, as so often, and the warnings of possible death and disaster from an army of experts prove accurate, it will be another blow to the ‘will I won’t I ‘ primeminister.
