COVID - 19 Update - Update 1 - Health


Lets Get Real:

The First Secretary of State and the Cabinet will not take a decision on lifting the lockdown in till the PM is back at helm, the PM is recovering from COVID - 19, that can take a couple of weeks to recover from.  The UK economy could face a great depression, the UK economy needs to get back to work.   That decision will be important when it comes to the NHS and the economy, get it right and the UK can get on moving, get it wrong, and more deaths, slow economic recovery and giving the Opposition the chance to attack.   That is why the Cabinet is waiting for the PM to come back, no one want their fingerprints on the final decision. 

Trump appeals to his BASE - Immigration Ban - US Election 2020


Lets Get Real:

The Trump Oval has nearly twenty million Americans who have registered for unemployment since the outbreak of COVID - 19 and the lockdown of the US.  POTUS is looking at November and must worry, thus his call for the US to re-open before the General Election.  As stated in my previous post the Trump Oval would like it if the Democratic Governors on the West and East Coast opposed opening up the US, the Republicans could then argue that the Democrats want people on welfare, as then they will vote for the Democrats.   Thus expect more moves by Trump to please his base and show the Democrats in a bad light, ruthless politics but good politics.
