While we suffer under this pandemic, to hear the political ballerinas talk of getting back to normal, if this statement wasn't so hypocritical and tragic for the ordinary people of this country, it would be laughable. For our lords and masters, getting back to normal, means run out to work, if you have a job, and spend you spare time consuming. They desperately need you to get their tills wringing, they are getting nervous because we are not being able to be milk to their liking, we are needed to get their loot growing again.
Try to imagine "normal" with mass unemployment a certainty. As the covid19 virus creeps invisibly across the land, unemployment keeps rising. Below is a wee glimpse of what awaits us in the new "normal" that our corporate and political bosses want us to return to. We have to create the new normal, one that sees to the needs of all our people and jettisons the pampered parasite class, that want to risk your health and well-being for the sake of their power, wealth, and privileges. Don't be a sucker.

This list is by no way complete and comprehensive, there are a multitude of small business that are shedding employees, with some closing down completely.
A fair list of people looking for work with the pandemic far from over, and the furlough scheme ending in a couple of months. That simple action alone, will see employers jettison employees by the lorry load. Now think very hard about getting back to normal, especial if you are in one of the families affect by those daily growing numbers.
