They probably understand and trust the scientist. I haven't seen much that goes against this.

This is issue is they don't care about the people they govern, especially the private educated aristocracy that runs the UK. Sunak said in private the deaths don't matter, not that the scientist were wrong. Boris also said let the bodies pile high.

The issue is we are governed by the worst amongst us. Out of touch and out of ideas. The only thing they have is control of the media and endless funding from the most suspect characters.

And only the voters can - but the voters refuse to do their job.

I love how people conveniently ignore the masses of propaganda we're all exposed to, never mind that the system (which said propaganda is there to protect and uphold) is designed to serve a select few, not the actual people - "If voting made any difference they wouldn't let us do it".

Because the voters are easily manipulated by the same people lying to the politicians.
