This week has been very interesting.
We’ve seen mass protests and rioting worldwide as people decide that their health doesn’t matter and run amok because a police officer appeared to kill a man in custody.
Apparently looting, arson and violence while also ignoring social distancing is an appropriate response to that horrific crime.
So too is a willingness to kneel in subjugation by politicians.
They aren’t compassionate, they are cowards kneeling before the mob.
A new UMR poll shows that National is still kneeling after the disastrous leadership of Simon Bridges came to its predictable ignominious end.
The latest UMR poll, taken after Todd Muller took over doesn’t give much cheer for National’s caucus.
And we’ve seen the Prime Minister continuing to insist on remaining at Level 2 while doing nothing to stop thousands of protesters to thumb their noses at the rules the rest of us have to live by.
And on Thursday she was posing for selfies in breach of her own promulgated rules.
Today cabinet will decide if we can leave level 2, but there is no medical reason why we should remain since the last remaining active patient was notified more than a month ago. ]
I believe they haven’t declared her recovered using their world unique “recovered: definition because they need that patient to justify continued level 2.
They will miraculously be declared recovered when the decision is made to move to level one.
Most of the population already is operating that way.
Crunch time is coming however as June 10 approaches. That is the day the first wage subsidy runs out. We are likely to see mass unemployment soon after.
By then the refrains of “Be Kind” will seem hollow.
Lastly I will look at the difference between Joe Biden and Donald Trump before wrapping up with the optics of woke Democrats kneeling before the mod.
