16/07/2020What we really have here, in the form of COVID-19, is a virus which is changing the whole power structure of Western democracy according to Sky News host Alan Jones. “Capitalism and our way of life are under siege and what is going to replace them,” Mr Jones said.

Mr Jones said while there are only dozens of people in hospital and intensive care around the country you continually “have people in deep distress”. “We just seem to be piling worry on top of worry”.
