Lockdown

I've seen the best and the worst of people during these challenging times of constraint and social distancing. Some wonderfully kind gestures, examples including neighbours shopping for groceries for others less able / more at risk, to wealthy philanthropists letting the NHS use one or more hotels they own. Then there's the hideous white underbelly of the human psyche, manifest here by chancers looking to profit, such as shop owners raising the price of anti-bacterial hand wash by 600%, or the wealthy seeking to have their business bailed out by the state without first selling their own assets. Like an island in the Caribbean.


The best, and the worst.


And I keep hearing how we'll all learn. When it comes, the new "normal" will be better than the old one. The world will be a kinder, cleaner, fairer place. I'd like to believe that. I might have once.
