If they force a vaccine on us (with punishment for non compliance) then you can bet your backside the Tories won't be in power after the next GE. I imagine the same thing for Trump which is why he is now seemingly breaking slowly away from the mainstream medical analysis (that seems to be on a path of "vaccine for all" - granted not mention of "mandatory" but getting closer by the day if you ask me). If a vaccine is voluntary then so be it. Just my speculation. I have a fever now (no idea if corona, don't really care tbh) so am building up herd immunity I hope

This virus had me thinking about the biggest plague to hit London - the bubonic...
As it raged through London the wealthy fled to the country. But would they ever be able to return to their city?
Luckily for them, an ‘accidental’ fire that started in a bakery ended up burning down just about everywhere the plague raged in September 1666.
In a single ruthless stroke the fire had killed many people, infected and healthy, as well as the rats and fleas that were spreading the plague.
The slate was cleaned, allowing the rich elite to return and hire Christopher Wren to rebuild London exactly how they wanted; something they had probably yearned for and now ‘fortune’ had made possible.
...For sanity’s sake I’m not to draw ominous portents from history
Section 89 of the Coronavirus Act 2020 details just how many sections and sub-sections are not subject to the expiry clause. Sections 1, 2, 5, 6, 11, 12, 13, 17, 19(11), 21(7), 59-70, 72-74, 75(1) and 76. As well as parts of Schedules 1, 4, 5, 7, 8 and 10 through 13.
Fully one quarter (and possibly more) of the entire bill will never expire.

But, and its a MASSIVE but, we have to be vigilant and ensure that 'they' do not use this as an opportunity to infringe upon our civil liberties any longer than is absolutely necessary or without reason.
