That's beautiful

[Crimson Dynamo]

It's time he put the Two Ronnies and all his other advisers back in their boxes. Some of
these professional Jeremiahs are already droning on about masks and social distancing
being mandatory for years to come. The PM has to rediscover and unleash the Inner
Boris which has served him so well, and got him out of innumerable scrapes over the
years.

The less said about his early, flailing response to Covid the better.
The fact that he himself was almost mortally afflicted has undoubtedly affected his
subsequent judgment and may explain his reluctance to take calculated risks. We get it.


For 12 seemingly interminable months, the British people have largely endured the
privations and restrictions with commendable stoicism, resignation and good humour.
But patience is running out. The country can't take, or afford, another ruinous spring

and summer of stop-start lockdowns.

We will forgive the Prime Minister's early mistakes, but he won't be forgiven
if he dithers any longer, particularly as deaths fell yesterday to just 17. Britain needs to get back to
normal — pre-Covid normal — now, before it is too late.

Boris has been handed his get-out-of-jail card. Churchill was floundering until the Spitfire squadrons came to his rescue.

The vaccines are Boris's Spitfires. He's already winning the Battle of Britain. It's time for
him to abandon the air raid shelter, sound the all-clear and win the war.

Netherlands: Lockdown extended until April 20th, no foreign holidays


Staying home

Rutte also again urged on people to keep to the rules. ‘Less than half of people who have symptoms are staying at home,’ he said. ‘But if you stick to the rules, you are helping hospitals, schools and so on… Our behaviour is the fastest way to relax the rules,’ he said.

Rutte and De Jonge will hold their next press conference on April 13.

Netherlands: the press conference of last night its viewer ratings is 5 million which is less than the one from March 8th when 5.5 million people tuned in

Janssen/J&J vaccine to deliver 170.000 doses to Netherlands by end of april

https://nltimes.nl/2021/03/24/jansse...s-nl-end-april


also Eurovision organizers EBU & AVROTROS, NOS, NPO, and the dutch football FA (KNVB) hopeful after last nights covid press conference (more bits of light at the end of this long lockdown tunnel) so if all goes well a scenario B with some audience for ESC might still be possible, and also maybe possible for dutch football to have some audience again too

Massive U Turn

[Nicky91]

[Nicky91]

if numbers are going in a surge now, the regional leaders to blame over there

Germany could've better still kept their lockdown like Netherlands and Belgium, and let people stay home and work from home more, and speed up vaccination rollout


i love the message from our health minister De Jonge, quite a morale boost ''if we do our best now, we might be able to have more freedom by May and summer''

I read that the Spanish Islands are going to let German tourists visit over Easter
