I SUGGEST that as an island we should immediately seriously lockdown.

We should close the airports and other methods of entering the UK and indeed leaving it.

We need to survive this trauma as a nation. We have the NHS which is second to none in the world. We have a green and pleasant land.

Medical statistics tend to skew the realities of this pandemic. We are can deal with this but we need to be firm and focused on protecting our population and the future of the next generations.
