  1. I don't know much about questionnaires but repetitive questions are generally trying to pick out inconsistent or false answers in my knowledge. Maybe the questionnaire isn't trying to find what it states it is. Claims to be inactive now so can't check it out :).
  2. This is a description of the Kinnock visit - he kept his distance. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2020/mar/29/stephen-kinnock-targeted-by-police-for-visiting-father-neil The thing is the arrogance wasn't there he knew he had got away with it - you'd think Neil would look after himself still (and Glenys) :).
  3. Lots of "black lives matter" chants - they have the right to protest and what happened in the States was disgusting.
  4. Heading back up Rye Lane past my flat now - strange I didn't hear them go down.

  6. Seriously - I think its a protest about George Floyd
  7. https://thisisgala.co.uk/ Postponed but maybe some came on the wrong year :) ?

But we (the UK) should be a bastion of the WHO - why else are we one of 5 permanent members of the security council - supposedly the only nations (the other 4) that could stand up to China - and when USA withdraws are the creating an alternative ?
  9. We had this about 3G and 4G IIRC and cell phones and TVs in my dads day (I remember the warnings). The Radiation Research Trust are warning of 5G but go back 12 years and ... http://www.quackometer.net/blog/2007/05/wi-fi-quackery-and-parliament.html so really they should just say they don't like Wi-Fi, Mobiles or any G whatsoever from 2G. Some people do seem to have a sensitivity to EM Radiation (think Saul Goodmans brother in the series - someone I worked with claimed similar) - but that seems to include the Sun (I don't like sunny days myself).
  10. Choumert Road has a dispersal order - not related to Covid-19 but it has to be if people are gathering. https://www.southwarknews.co.uk/news/choumert-road-dispersal-zone-in-place-for-second-weekend-in-a-row/
  11. First one on the left for me I've kept up me exercise bike work for 2 months and I'm well over 40 so definitely aimed at me :) LOL just realised I'm in the minority on my choice.
  12. Trump has been censored by twitter for saying "When the looting starts, the shooting starts," https://www.cnet.com/news/twitter-hides-trumps-tweet-for-violating-its-rules-about-glorifying-violence-president-strikes-back/?ftag=CAD-03-10aaj8j
  13. India has made their app compulsory with the police coming over to make sure you download it. https://www.wired.co.uk/article/india-contact-tracing-app-mandatory-arogya-setu Meanwhile in UK a beer celebrating Cumming's exploits seems to have more distribution than our app https://www.brewdog.com/uk/barnard-castle-eye-test

Not all homeless people are > alcoholics and not helpful to feed peoples habits. Lots of 0% if you don't want alcohol or a 0% G&T or Mojito. It's the thought that counts Mind if you find it's a private investigator on the tail you'd be shocked (They do exist as an ex work colleague got followed for weeks by the DWP because he was on the sick - waiting for him to throw his crutch away)
  15. I think UK travellers will be the last to be allowed into Spain or Greece.
  16. Strangely when I clap for the NHS I try to do it quietly not loudly. There's really no reason I do it other than to go out on the balcony and feel others are out there.
  17. Ireland and Wales won't let you cross the border Uncle So it's Birmingham or Durham for your camp out.
  18. Hancock is threatening us now - he doesn't realise how hard tracing and contacting people is and the people they've employed are basically students/young people and the like - getting hold of someone is a skill you learn. You can leave messages and send letters but people don't reply - they'll wait until they feel ill. You can pay a visit but lots of people don't answer doors unless people text ahead with a reason. The app seems to have failed already.

His reason for not staying in London appear to be he feared for his life from Remainers and Starministas.

  23. Difference in emphasis in England and Wales creates different levels of going out. https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-news/bank-holiday-beaches-bournemouth-england-18307709
  24. It's happened before where cabinet ministers have behaved differently and been accountable to different rules. Remember the M4 bus lane which became the then cabinets private route into London. Alister Campbell claims that there is however a special government department for senior government employees who's job is exactly what Cummings claims he didn't have.
  25. Some people thrive on being booed - not sure if that's Boris - but some in the Tories definitely.
