英国内部から決して聞かれないようなボリスへの賛美の声が日本からは流れてくるのでボリスのことを分かっていないのではないかと思ってしまっていたけど、安倍の各世帯にマスク２枚を見て、断水が１ヶ月続いて水道の蛇口から水が出るだけでも感動するような政治的渇望感があるんだと気づいた。

日本のボリス評価というのはどんなのかは知らないのだが、


One Battle Boris Johnson Is Clearly Winning
The U.K. prime minister got a bounce from Brexit, but that is nothing compared to what the virus crisis has given him.

Fully 72% of eligible voters are satisfied with Johnson’s performance as Prime Minister, with 25% dissatisfied. Ninety-one per cent of those currently supporting the Conservatives count themselves as satisfied, along with about half of Labour voters and those voting for other parties and a large majority of undecided voters. Johnson’s government gets similar approval ratings, both overall (73% to 24%) and on its handling of the Coronavirus outbreak (72% to 25%).

英国内部ではめちゃ支持率高いじゃん？

イギリスでは、断水が１ヶ月続いて、ジョンソンが、水道の蛇口から水を出してやったのか？

While wartime metaphors are now commonplace, this pandemic is not, of course, a war in literal sense -- people are being killed by a disease, not each other. But it does share many of the same characteristics and a similar “rally around the flag” sense. The most obvious of these is the unity against a common enemy, with a lot of agreement across parties and across the public. There is also clear sense of “national effort,” and some extremely large government spending on its way.

戦争じゃないけど、共通の敵に一丸となって協力する意識が盛り上がり、政府も巨額の支出をしているからじゃないか、と。
