You could say 2021
Has not really been much fun
But as we’re on month number three
It won’t be long until we’re free
For now that spring has almost sprung
We will soon all be back among
People that we’ve had to avoid
As our social lives were destroyed
By a globalish pandemic
That was really quite polemic
Our hands have never been so clean
While we awaited a vaccine
But now we can forget hygiene
And swap the hand soap for sunscreen
We’ll be at liberty to roam
Even if we’d rather stay at home
So wish away the gathered clouds
Get up and out and join the crowds
As soon as it is vaguely sunny
Go forth and spend all of your money
Give yourself a case of gout
As again you ‘Eat Out To Help Out’
Support every other government scheme
Counterintuitive though they often seem
Ensure that when you meet a friend
That both of you can spend spend spend
For when the virus is less of a threat
It behoves us all to get into debt
And step once more out the front door
To spend time with people we abhor
James Proclaims! 
Ha! Well done. 🙂

Spoken in that positive indomitable Welsh/English spirit.
Ah, to be finally free of this grave affliction,
As the Conservatives say ‘dunno where, dunno when,’
But I’m breathlessly awaiting the eviction
Of the blathering idiot squatting in Number Ten.

As the government’s prone to say
“it is your moral duty”
the message is each day
stay home, but spend your booty

That is definitely the message and quite possibly the actual words that Boris uses

It’s a bit grim thinking about it this way, and while like many I hope we do return to a place whee we can see people, go out etc, I feel somewhere along the line the government is going to screw up (again).

We should pleased to see these responsible irreversible measures, which of course will be reversed if the science says the reverse of what the irreversible measures we’ve put in place should be achieving is being achieved, then we will sensibly reverse them, if we can figure out how to install a reverse gear into our irreversible measures without looking like we’re reversing. But I’m glad we have a clear irreversible roadmap and cannot reverse, but have left plenty of places to u-turn and, very possibly, crash horribly.

No.
Maybe.

I think this poem justifies
the reason we all must be wise
To see the reason we be rovers
And to our governments just bend over
Laughter is contagious. Start a pandemic
