The great psychological leap



COVID-19: Ending restrictions requires big psychological leap - and some of us may never return to normal

As the country inches back towards normality, Boris Johnson hopes it might also mark a change in his political fortunes.

When a constant pain in the bum finally goes away, we don't call it a big psychological leap. In any event, going back to normal won't be part of the plan. Going forward to a new normal, that's the plan and it will be done by nudges, not leaps. 

Until it falls apart, we might see some leaps then. Nick Clegg has leaped already.

2024 is the next leap year, so I predict two more years of variants.

Sam - yes, I'm almost amazed that we are to have a 'living with Covid plan'.
