[QUOTE="Angela Channing, post: 263178, member: 33"] Thank you but I'm fine now but it took me a long time to get to where I am. I occasionally still get waves of depression, sometimes completely out of the blue, but I get through them. Life can throw us many difficult things to deal with and some of us manage better than others. I hope you are dealing with matters well yourself. I'm very critical about the Tories generally but particularly how they have handled Covid. The first lockdown was way too late and had they locked down a week earlier when government scientists and the Leader of the Opposition Jeremy Corbyn urged them to, 20,000 lives would have been saved, the virus would have gotten under control faster and that lockdown wouldn't have had to have lasted as long. I totally agree with what you have said about how the Tories have demonised and savaged various groups including young people, BAME people, LGBTQ+ people (particularly trans people) and people on low incomes. Targeting them provides a helpful distraction from their failures. Outlawing protests provides a double purpose: as well as averting attention from their woeful handling of the pandemic but it also cracks down on people who disagree with them in a manner not dissimilar to how the Chinese government responded to protests in Hong Kong that was condemned around the world.
