Might if it was streamed on YouTube. SM Big Brother channel.
But there are some points to consider arising from the data Wattie posted and how statistics have been used generally in this pandemic to shape policy and to justify use of executive power without proper parliamentary scrutiny.
Why is the data broken down by every 20 years?
A 60 year old person is a different proposition to a 79 year old person. A breakdown by every 5 years might reveal a more nuanced position.
Why are children 0-19? For deaths, as thankfully there are few, this is not so important, but for cases it may prove or dispel 'myths' around where spread is occuring. Why not 0-3, pre-school, primary school and secondary school?
In Kent, the existence of a grammar school system promotes 11-18 children travelling between towns on public transport whereas primary school children generally remain in the town that they live.
Why have 20-39 when much more relevant might be 18-21 in further education settings versus 18-21 in the workplace and then 22-29 and 30-39?
Spain will reportedly keep a list of non-vaccinators and provide to all other EU countries. Are you comfortable with that approach here? Some countries already require declaration of vaccination to enter a country; is this the same, or a step too far?
Well catching Covid is not just about death rates, it's also about the lasting effectsHere’s the NHs’s Own figures.
View attachment 79662
The number of Covid-related deaths in England involving individuals under the age of 60 and free from a pre-existing condition is 377.
This is for the entire period of the pandemic!!!!!!
There is surely a compelling argument now for a more targeted approach which aggressively protects the genuinely vulnerable, using the full resources of the state and civil society, while letting everyone else go about their normal business.
Locking down an entire country is madness.
It might if a flashmob of Maseratis descended on Downing Street. All it needs is a Moderator to organise it!A car forum is unlikely to shape policy,

It’s funny, isn’t it. Maybe 7 or 8 months ago the talk was of stockpiling food, buying safes to keep it in, hiding out from the zombie apocalypse. Now we’re comfortable enough to find the energy to be suspicious of data and of those who purport to help.
Hedonic adaptation, bruv.
I’ve checked my diary. I can sort this out in June. 2022.
That's going to be a really rubbish affair compared with previous SM road trips.
Yes, but much, much easier to organise!
Excellent fellow. That gives you time to get organised. Now:I’ve checked my diary. I can sort this for June. 2022.
We will never agree, surely an extension on June 2022 deadline will be required. lolExcellent fellow. That gives you time to get organised. Now:
Level 1 Project Plan
Objectives, Milestones, Budget, Key Actors, Risks & Mitigations.
Level 2
Nomination of specialist forum advisers (suggestions most welcome)
