Watching the BBC News it really is clear just how dangerous and serious the situation is.


Our NHS workers are putting themselves in Real danger. Exposing themselves to exposure to this Virus.

Many people Still all but ignoring keeping a safe distance from other people.


I believe the government need to BAN people jogging. Running past people Panting and Breathing Heavily.

It's ridiculous.


I really cannot see an end to this. I really cannot see a time when we will be having a beer in the pub

or enjoying a meal in our favourite restaurant.


I cannot see how Pubs, Bars and Restaurants can survive this. Anywhere where people congregate on mass.

I wish him well indeed... but he's not funny ffs

He's got a deputy and a cabinet who can run the country in his absence. I've been looking a lot at Churchill who had a cross party inner circle during the war and had his own physical and mental health issues. BJ's of course in the best place and few people wish him ill in this situation. I was perplexed about the 'need to work' over recent days when he was clearly quite poorly.

I wish him well too - I hope like everyone else - that he gets through this soon. He hasn?t looked well and kept going...

Just seen on Sky that they are saying there is a clap for boris tonight..apparently trending on twitter, not that I have an account to see etc..

If he recovers, I hope it's of some use to the country, like he has increased awareness for other people's hardships, begins to understand people are different but fundamentally should be regarded equal, recognises that inflammatory language can cascade to the street and cause problems for minorities, and can change his behaviours and language to reflect that.

He probably will for a while, applaud the doctors, nurses and everyone else who pulled together. Then revert back to the same old johnson

Getting up the noses of [insert cliched and confected homogenous bunch) VS arrogant leadership discarding advice, help and evidence from other countries which will mean more people likely to die in this country compared to neighbours?


it's a toughie for sure

A bizarre bit of logic, that is like saying I quite like Hitler as he p'd off Germany's liberal intellectual types. I doubt if BJ is that popular with some other racial groups, as well as some other sectors of society judging by his use of terms such as picanniny, letterbox and bumboy. If I'd used such terms in my work place, no matter how much I was intending to be satirical, I'd be in a lot of bother.


As for him 'deserving it', nobody deserves serious harm and that was foolish to say the least. Whether he could have prevented it by better/earlier social distancing will come out in the wash but probably no worse than the celebs and sports stars catching it at the Cheltenham races.


As for my sympathies very much with key workers/front line workers.

KidKruger, it was the article that Uncle posted about a Derbyshire Councillor - she said he deserved to die.


My earlier post was mainly banter but just shocked by Laura Kuenssberg on the Beeb, "Nearly a 1000 people died over the last 24 hours, but hey ho good news the Prime Minister is recovering". How insensitive.


I think the media played Charie Boy and Covid-19 well, The heir to the throne that is. It was modestly reported. I'll let Twitter and hopefully some complaints to the BBC make my point further.

    • I have not. Both things are true.
    • I have been thinking about it and what I have loosely come up with so far are sites and types. Sites Here, Comment is Free, the Independent, the BBC (difficult as their comments section is only ever on trivia), The Telegraph (less so but increasing), The times (rapidly increasing), New Statesman, Spectator (much less so but some increase) even the Daily Mail and UnHerd (perhaps even union platforms, agit-prop and "progressive" platforms, XR, "middle-East", Just Stop Oil, Reddit, Bluesky, Truth Social etc.) I am sure the AI will find more to cross-reference. Types Astro-turfers, single-issue obsessives (frequently overlap with Astro-turfers), floral enforcers, ideologues, political staff, hypocrites, luxury belief pushers, Igors and Renfields. The vast majority are; normal local residents a bit frustrated with something; those looking for a tradesman; or just the friendly saying hello and looking for a bit of community. Spartacus thank you. Although you should probably find something else  more interesting to occupy your time; my energy for this is rapidly deflating. It won't disappear and I will get it done (once I work out which AI and which parameters to use) but it might not happen for a while. I saw your comment on the PIP thread; you have to use your single worst day to apply. Being bravely determined not to be defeated (a quality most normal people find admirable and honourable) means your claim can easily be rejected or at least made difficult. "I will get up, I will walk to the shop, I will cook". Those are the tests you have to make clear you only ever fail at. Sorry but its the truth. I wish you good luck with it.
    • Going by tracking information they go via Croydon and East Dulwich (Peckham) sorting offices. Round my way, and I know it varies from street to street, delivery of tracked items brought by the regular postman is mostly reliable. I've noticed if there isn't a postman doing a regular round, there may be a walking postman just delivering the tracked items. 
    • Are the parcel services organised by the local sorting office? We always notice parcels delivered by the vans are delivered on time but those that come via the postie can be unpredictable and we often get a "you were not in" when no-one even attempted delivery.
