    Not it isn't. But there will be evidence for your assertion. Where is it?
    Nicola Sturgeon took part but she is in Govt in part of the UK.

    Who wants to ask Putin if he's got a few missiles aimed at Mar a Lago?

    He's already lost the election, only in office until a new Taoiseach can be agreed between the other parties. I suspect he's leaving his successor a few issues behind.

    Long story short, Diego thinks that the Privy Council and COBRA are the same thing

    The 2017 Westminster Bridge attack made it obvious that they aren't: Theresa May, Amber Rudd and Michael Fallon were whisked away to a COBRA meeting while every other MP, including Corbyn, remained in Commons

    Yep. The Leader of the Opposition is likely to be briefed on Privy Council terms as to what happened at the recent COBRA meetings but is unlikely to be invited to attend.

    Your message contains the words 'Diego thinks' which are unlikely to be accurate.

    COBRA is the world's most disappointing acronym.

    It's like they wanted it to sound cool so that people would want to attend them.

    Why are people looking to emulate China's response to the virus?
    I don't trust our own government to tell us the truth about what's going on, let alone theirs.

    ...and that's how we're emulating China's approach

    Now hurry along and stand in a room with those 150 coughing people, we have to work on herd immunity. What do you mean "vaccination"???

    Because I was told by the WHO that the China "reponse" to Corona-chan
    has been very good indeed.

    So who are you to dare question the WHO ... ??

    I am reminded of the public information films of the early '80's concerning what to do if you heard the 4 minute warning sirens. I remember that you had to cover your windows in brown paper and huddle under the stairs, waiting to be incinerated, unless you lived somewhere without a shop or school within 30 minutes drive.

    They're releasing 'information' and 'advice' by way of opium for the masses. In their minds, it's better than this...

    Personally, I prefer Sweet and don't own any brown paper.

    All I know is that I'm the best prepared of any of us

    I've read The Zombie Survival Guide, Metro 2033 and The Death of Grass, I've played The Last of Us, Fallout 3 and the Resident Evil 2 remake, and I've watched all of George Romero's zombie movies, Carriers, Right at Your Door and Stakeland, so I'm covered for all eventualities

    Unless the "Doctor" is also a whistle-blower.

    However, schools are to remain open, because there's only several hundred people in each and every one of those...
