Just remember. Once all human life is extinguished, the cockroaches will emerge. Only to find themselves in second place, as Fianna Fail reappear. So... another coalition then? |

That reminds me of a comedian on the radio a few years ago now who said that there was a gigantic catastrophe on the planet and the only survivors were PE teachers and fruit flies. Fruit flies were the dominant species. |

The deaths are in all constituencies but as stated, the young, old, infirm and poor will have higher mortality rates. MPs therefore lower mortality rates, maybe 20% and 40% respectively. First question, how big an event does it have to be before government suspends by elections? Assuming they hold the by elections, how does the catastrophe itself weigh on the voters? Does it make them put their trust in government, or blame government? The slightly variable attrition rate in electors, how does that impact on votes cast? Parochial question, what does it do to the SNP and Yesser votes? On reflection last weeks scenario of a meteor hitting London would surely benefit the SNP business case for leaving a London-less England in crisis.

What we have now discovered is that the contrary to all good post-apocalyptic movies, the apocalypse does not come in a wild panic sweeping through society as it is overrun by the disease, but after several weeks of mind-numbing lockdown and debate about the FA Premiership
Society will rebuild from bottom up, with county cups and the like.
