I bet Boris is getting A1 aid at the hospital....unlike poor old Charlie Brown down the road...…...
 
Watching the news,it's becoming a bit like a sports programme…...how many caught it,how many died from it today? Tell us more about the virus. Is it man made? Why did it start (?) in China and why is it global? Is it in the air? Will it recede or will it kill us all?
 
The Jewish Chronicle and Jewish News are going into liquidation.
It's unclear at this time how Jeremy Corbyn is responsible for this, but Stephen Pollard is sure to let us know soon.
Ed Miliband's return may have signalled this.

I'll need a minute to check if this is the exact same tweet she posted when Jess Phillips flounced out of the Labour leadership race...

I love all this aid the government are handing out.
Which nobody can claim <doh>
Charities are the latest group to benefit - er, not to benefit.
It's so Tory in its deviousness, it's brilliant :mad:
 
Have you noticed how the press announced "UK deaths from coronavirus are x"
Now it's "UK deaths from coronavirus in hospital are x".
That means the thousands dying in care homes etc are ignored.

It's as close as they'll ever get to admitting that, unless you're in a hospital, you're not going to get tested

So it's safe to say that we can expect some excuse that they'll never come close to their target of testing 100,000 people a day by the end of the month

As simple members of the public, we are stuck with the public information and anecdotal evidence.
When you see footage of Italy, there are few people on the streets. Those who are tend to be pursued by armed police.
Here we see images of people swarming about like ants.
I suspect our true figures are way ahead of Italy.

The problem is the public evidence is one crackpot theorist after another being given oxygen by the BBC, be it yesterday's idiot saying we could send kids back to school and nothing bad would happen or today's saying cat owners need to lock their pets inside in case somebody coughs on them (so I give it four days before they let some 5G Truther on)

During the plague doctors didn't need PPE, they wore scented wooden beaks to purify the air.
Is there a problem with this now?

Yes, they've all been bought up by edgelords and hipsters.
And symphonic metal bands with really hot Swiss singers:
