Ended up faffing about on Google myself after that last post.
This piece seems useful...

Legislation passed on lies ,mistake ,stupidty or because you fancied someone is legal. It's the procedure that makes the legislation legal not what it convinced 650 MPs to vote.

Legal does not mean morally acceptable.

But it does mean legal. ;) Now, if only we could get the government, and most especially that feckless serial-adulterer and whey-faced poltroon Johnson, who's supposedly the leader of the government, to see that legal means legal (he should recognise that format) we'd be in a much better state than we currently are.

Laws premised upon moral acceptance would result in inertia.

I think the discussion/debate over a viable set of morals to base those laws on would eventually become deadlocked, and insoluble. The proposed laws themselves would probably never see a parliamentary debate.

Going back to the title of the thread. From 7 August people in Wales will not have to self isolate if they are pinged. In England this will not happen until 16 August. I live in Wales and am Welsh, but between these dates I will be on holiday in England. Confused. :lol:

The lockdowns were imposed on the basis that lives would be saved. However, the poverty caused by the lockdowns will result in the loss of life. Plus shutting down large parts of the NHS will result in the loss of life.

2022 saw 9% more deaths in the UK than 2019.
