I saw a news clip yesterday which included a video call with Boris Johnson and I thought then how poorly he looked. His breathing also sounded much more laboured than a few days ago.
Over 70’s are threatened with £1000 fine or jail if they don’t self isolate.
If you’re going to be forced to self isolate you might as well be somewhere where all your meals are provided for by...
