This heading could probably relate to everyone and to any country at the moment . . . it seems that every President currently, is in a global bind, and needs to follow the true course of saving a nation, lest the world suffers at the DNA or RNA and the capsid surroundings of a virus pandemic. The USA is facing a serious crisis and as I sit on the edge of my seat and watch the politics unfold through CNN, I feel for the American people and the UK friends, especially the ones being placed in harm's way during a crisis within a crisis. For me on home ground, it's just a matter of waiting to hear what My President will say next week after our serious 14-day lockdown comes to an end - will he close the borders again? Will we move to lockdown level 4 again? That will mean that our travelling plans, within the country, will have to take a back seat, and even though I am trying not to seem selfish, I am a little disgruntled with COVID for messing with my LIFE! How do you feel about the global climate at the moment? - political that is!!

We knew before the lockdown ended... it has been extended until the end of February. People trust our politicians here, even if all those restrictions are causing to many to lose their business.

at the moment we trust our politicians as well - it's just I am feeling a little selfishly disgruntled

@Inlemay I am fine staying at home right now, it's so cold, until the end of February is always cold.

There has been a lot of political drama around the globe and America witnessed some really unprecedented shameful event But I would not call a lockdown decision a political one. It must be a needed one to save lives. No government would risk for unnecessary lockdown in present world of economic crisis.

Political drama is for me annoying but once it involves violence, that must be stopped and held the the liable personality accountable. In my country, the opposing party of the President and the Vice have created divisiveness instead of unity. Throwing shades and criticizing against each other is not helpful during these times of crisis.
