I wonder what really caused the austerity - the virus or stupid EU commissioners passing lockdown edicts and then breaking them themselves en masse? It's a real mystery.

Just like COVID, the harm is from over-reaction.

#5 Yeah, he resigned but still did it in the first place. "...a lavish party...". Uh huh.

#6 Got caught, unless you think he would have woke up the next morning, looked in the mirror, and decided he wasn't fit for duty.
