The Pain In Spain

Such was the speed of the Governments change of heart on visiting Spain, that two of the Governments own ministers were holidaying in Spain and will now have to self-isolate for 14 days when they return.
Obviously that is not a bad thing, the less Government Ministers there are messing things up the better, shame the whole lot of them were not on a team bonding session in Barcelona when the call came so we still have Boris Johnson and his fat moon face on our televisions, although his fat face is not quite so chubby nowadays after shedding a stone and a half after he had been advised that being overweight make the consequences of Coronavirus worse, so he has made it his goal to make us all lose weight.
A ban on TV ads of unhealthy food before the 9pm watershed has been confirmed although as with everything this Government seems to do, it is contradicted by their 'Eat Out to Help Out' initiative to help the economy which grants everyone 50% off meals in restaurants, including fast food outlets.
As this is the Government who gave us such advice as masks won't help and then made them mandatory, that large public gatherings will not spread the disease and then banning them days later and our very own Prime Minister boasting how he was shaking hands with Coronavirus victims at the same Press Conference when he had the just told us to not do exactly that, it seems we shouldn't expect anything else really.
At least they haven't suggested a pint of Harpic Bleach as a cure like some other less than competent leaders but if you still have the Waterstone's receipt for that Spanish Translation book, you could do better than to return it and swap if for the Atkins Diet Book.
