That said, the figures based on new tests should now be normalised (a well understood statistical technique) so that they can be represented from the start in the new normal.

Also it is now clear that comparison with other countries is meaningless except, perhaps, the death count.

Andrew Neil is pointing out the death count and the data is bleak:

This official chart can give the government no comfort. Most international comparisons show us tracking France. But France includes care homes etc. Our daily Covid stats don’t. Include them (all settings in chart) and we’re even tracking above Italy.
