Lockdown easing in England

[KGarrad]

OK! I know it's a much smaller place, but . . .

Tynwald, the Isle of Man Parliament has no political parties to speak of.
There is Lib Vannin and the Douglas Labour Party, but I don't think they have any Members of the House of Keys (MHKs).

The Chief Minister is elected by the MHKs, and he forms his own Legislative Council to help him govern.

By-and-large, it seems to work!

No positive Covid cases for 18 days.
No Covid patients in hospital.
Borders still closed

Maybe Guy should move to the Isle of Man then, Kevin

Not on your nelly!
Our borders are closed! We'll continue to keep the (potentially) virus ridden Brits out; thank you

@ Candleflame, they push a button! 

Bests,
Skoosh.

Thanks skoosh.

The death statistics (55 today) seem to be going down day by day (assuming they don't suddenly find a new lot that they've accidentally overlooked) so things are finally looking more hopeful.

After a weekend of demos consisting of thousands of people in close proximity, preceded by a weekend of crowds on beaches etc, the virus has almost been 'challenged' to do its worst and we should discover in a couple of weeks if the figures go up again or if they remain low. If, hopefully, the latter we should have cause for optimism; if the former- well, god knows.

For 'Brits' please replace with 'English', Kevin;  and I can confirm that Wales is closed too.  I suggest we start talks soon about the formation of The Celtic Alliance, although  I have been having preliminary talks with certain areas of Lancashire that qualify.  Associate status will be offered to like-minded areas, naturally.

Sorry Guy, you're on your own mate.

Some of the old Welsh pedigree books show one of my lines going back to the Kings of Man

Apologies, GS
We only have had travel links to England; seasonal to Ireland (both North & Republic) and Scotland.
The planned ferry service to Holyhead never happened!

Well, Kevin, once we have formed the Celtic Alliance (Scotland, Ireland, Isle of Man, Wales, Cornwall, Brittany, and parts of Lancashire etc) we will have to think about reorganising the travel routes.  Perhaps a coracle service between Ynys Mon to you might be a start....
