It's only the constant pressure from Left-wing clowns to report deaths contrary to the WHO standard that has given the UK the "highest" number of deaths in Europe. And comparing numbers without considering population size or population density is moronic.
Let's take the world health organisation figures then shall we: (

UK - 31, 241
Italy - 30, 201
France - 26,188
Spain - 26, 251
Belgium - 8, 521
Germany - 7, 369
Netherlands - 5, 359
It would appear we are still the worst in Europe - with WHO figures.
As for the 14 days quarantine it's a bit too late. Has Priti Patel only just woke up to whats going on? Or realised she's done naff all work for the last 3 months so must do something? Complete and utter waste of tax payers money. She should be sacked from the cabinet and conservative whip should be withdrawn. Most incompetent home secretary this country has ever seen.
