I know what the solution should be, but that's for another thread.

A further 7,738 confirmed cases in the UK were announced by the government on Saturday.

That figure takes us back to 25th February .....

PM promises 'caution' over 21 June lockdown end

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-57454258

Cases are rising as the Delta variant spreads, with details of the next step on the "roadmap" due on Monday.

The prime minister told the BBC it was important any easing of restrictions was "irreversible" and warned that hospital admissions were increasing.

The Delta variant, first identified in India, now accounts for nine in 10 UK coronavirus cases.

It is roughly 60% more transmissible than the Alpha - or Kent - variant, Public Health England data suggests.

The government put India on the "red list" of places to which travel is banned on 23 April, two weeks later than Pakistan and Bangladesh, which had fewer cases per million at the time.

BJ let the variant in and now he's facing either a lockdown extension or his own forecast "third wave" .....

I actually feel quite angry that nobody is taking him to task about this! I really don't get it at all! He didn't go to India for that visit on the grounds that it was dangerous regarding the virus, so why let Indians come here, for goodness sake? We were on track and now we aren't. So frustrating!
