So, since the pandemic
started, Trump has, in his press briefings and White House statements, taken
the opportunity to praise
himself 600 times, excluding his relentless tweeting. Narcissist who really really believes in himself, or fragile ego in constant need of support ?
Equivalent data for the
number of times the UK government spokespeople have invoked the
language of war and conflict, or has parrotted patronising and hypocritical
sound bites about the NHS, is not available, but must be reaching similar
numbers.
Meanwhile, the New
Zealand government has got on with the job, contained the outbreak, and is
now ready to lift the lock down .
