and

the control of science

For me it’s obviously, it’s a massive, massive thing that’s impacted everyone. So, for me, I don’t buy into a lot of it. A lot of the kind of media … portrayal of everything and … the fear and that sort of thing.  So, I think … it’s just a strange experience because there’s a lot of conflicting information, and I feel that … a lot has been made of it … there’s just so much conflicting information about it that… I think … the pandemic is kind of accentuated by … all the main media channels have … come together and they’ve got their own kind of narrative now…  

A few people we know drive past test centres and they are ... empty and the Government are putting out figures: ‘Oh, the tests are going up, every one’s got it’.  I don’t know, I am not saying they are completely lying about it, but I think they are being very, you know, the science of control and the control of science, I think they’re being very clever on what science they give out.
