With the UK Office of National Statistics reporting that covid-19 related deaths in the UK have exceeded 100,000, PTO spoke to Richard Seymour about why the UK government's covid response has been so disastrous. We also talked about why the UK vaccination has not been characterised by the vacillation and delay that has been associated with so much else of the British government's reaction to the pandemic. And finally we talked about impact of the covid crisis on the prospects for the breaking up of the union and the likelihood of Scottish independence.
