    Which one, there have several?
    If you’re talking about the “orange blimp” across the pond, I see he’s still spouting his “out by Easter” message <doh>

    The clock is ticking then. Haven’t kept up with this the last few days but it was mainly hitting the more cosmopolitan, mainly Democrat areas. When it starts ****ing up ****ville, Alabama he might have to change course. Or just blame the states.

    He’s going to blame the states. The Chinese for creating it and local governments for not managing it in the way he told them to.

    Not sure that's going to wash anyway tbh. People in Alabama have friends and relatives in New York and Los Angeles. Also, even the most blinkered hillbilly communities aren't going to be too enamoured of a President who fiddles while Noo Yawk burns.

    8,500 deaths across the US now with the vast majority in NYC ... they'll have surpassed Italy in a couple of days and he's running very low on deflections...

    It appears that his ratings have gone up. Americans are pleased with how he’s managing the situation. I can almost hear the”whooping” when he told the nation how he hijacked the 3M mask deal with Germany :headbang:

    It’s all about the numbers and ensuring he gets another term. He will probably, at some point, claim you can’t fight a war without casualties.

    That they have also ****ed over Canada whilst bringing in Canadian nurses to help their own crisis is truly reprehensible

    He’s still wanging on about Easter weekend being the time when they can sack off the lockdown and ‘get back to work’. Only, that date will be nowhere near the peak for the vast majority of US States. He’s hung his hat on it though, and it’ll bite him on his sizeable posterior.

    And get passed onto the employees.

    Can only report on the information I have personally received. I will pay tax, NI and pensions taken care of.

    Your company might be making their own contribution, but the Govt furlough rules don’t involve seeing employer NI contributions fed back to employees.

    I’ve furloughed an entire workforce of 130 mate.

    True mate. I know I keep labouring the point, but he is only interested in his next term. Having people out of work and an economy in free fall is going to potentially **** him.

    Yeah, like I say it could be they are passing the NI contributions on to us.

    Our MD said he'd make up the shortfall when this is all over. Blurted it out actually, which I bet he'll regret as I doubt they'll do it.


    I've not gone on furlough yet by the way. Agreed to review after Easter. If I stop, the two projects I am running will turn to ****, I just know it. Everyone will just put their feet up.

    They'd be better off allowing me to work from home and keep an eye on things from there.

    This isn't about me being right or wrong. It's me finding and learning from the evidence as it comes available.

    If your not interested, don't read it.

    Appoint a deputy and stay at home, remotely managing as best you can mate. It’ll all still be there when this ****’s all over. You know I’m right.

    I bet your Mrs is banging the same drum btw.
