robbie verb as in ''doing a robbie'', not to be confused with ''doing a jobbie'', although resultant is often the same. ''I would suggest that unless you are able to productively contribute, either observe and or research the content people are providing, or just ignore it.'' And who are you to decide what is a 'productive contribution'? I'm simply applying my own 'critical thinking'...

Funny how your critical thinking only works in one direction...

Yes malumbu, you do realise that now makes you a critical thinker. The next step in your travels through grifterdom is to start your own YouTube channel so that you can explain this remarkable scientific discovery to all the free thinkers out there. Presentation is everything, make it look like you're in your Mum and Dad's spare box room, this will appeal to your target audience. During filming don't forget to throw in a few colourful bar charts, my neighbour's 6yo can help you out with this if you're stuck. Finally the moneyshot ending, make the plaintive plea that in order for you to continue your intellectual crusade for truthfulness you have a gofundme page. Rinse and repeat...

Hope this makes sense TE44. Seasonal flu puts a lot of pressure on the NHS every winter, despite the flu jab reducing the spread and number of people being infected. C19 is far more contagious than seasonal flu and we have no jab for it. The whole point of the lockdown is to prevent the spread and thus avoid overwhelming the NHS and social care services...

It's quite entertaining to see someone criticise media spin of events, and then source media outlets for their own spin of events...

I'd be interested in getting a whereisboris app...

David Icke recently had his Facebook account closed due to the dangerous conspiracy theories and disinformation he was peddling. Perhaps Admin would like to review some of the recent posts on here under the guise of 'information'?...

People are wasting their time thinking the NHS will be sold, Trump's administration is far more interested in their huge pharmas supplying drugs to the NHS, that's where the money is for them, which will mean increased costs for us. If Trump wins a 2nd term that's what he will push for in any UK/US trade deal. It's all a bit of a moot point at the moment, Trump might not win, and the big economies of the world will be far more interested in dealing with the economic/financial fallout of this pandemic...

And as edcam highlights, hard to separate a politician from politics, especially one who was active in previous Govs during the last 10 years of austerity, overseeing serious underfunding of the NHS, the very people trying to save his life now. I hope he pulls through so he and his mob can be held accountable...

I see Quids is still raging at being being a white working class man living in a white middle class metropolitan area. That'll teach him for hanging around with the cool Twitterati kids instead of his real mates...:)

The use of one month wasn't for when I think it will be over, but for when the novelty of a 'home gym' starts to wear off. I thought I was being generous!...
