    I'm entirely consistent at all times.

    Would you give a toss about lockdown if you were minted? Yes, personal liberty is one of the things that I care about.
    Would you care if you were on a salary that was guaranteed for as long as lockdown lasted? Yes, as above
    Would you have a different opinion if you or a family member was in hospital on a ventilator gasping their last? No, as above.

    Got paid today, a full months wage for sitting on my arse doing **** all. A couple ton down on missed overtime but can’t complain otherwise.

    Those with their own business (Lochrie sheds) are obviously more eager to get back, i work for the man though so I’m not arsed. I’ll happily sit doing **** all on full pay for as long as it takes.

    Similar although technically I am working from home.

    I fully expect to get a new arsehole torn for me (financially speaking) at the next budget. All this lockdown stuff will come at a price.

    Rest assured as PAYE I will be paying my full share and not getting my dodgy arab tax accountant to cook the books for me.

    I'm working at the mo and it sucks, I miss the good old days of spliffs and COD :frown:

    I also completely understand Barrie, I'd be beeling too if my company was forced not to work (nandos and shoes austerity ahead for end-2020). I just don't think the Government should let 200k peeps die for the sake of money.

    If the virus chills out before June (which it might) then I fully expect things to pick up quickly over the summer. ****s stuck at home will have spare cash to burn, I'll probably be accounting for 2% of pint sales in Metropolitan London over the summer.

    Definitely, I feel sorry for anyone who will come out of this having lost a business or having to make drastic cuts just to survive. I'm lucky enough just to know I have a job to go back to, some won't be so lucky.

    This line about 200k dying is complete bullshit.

    Less than 1% of those displaying symptoms will die.
    Also, we know that after the 2008 financial crash, there were 500,000 extra deaths attributed to falling in living standards.

    There is zero excuse for surrendering your liberty at the State's behest. None at all. The Swedes have got it spot on, their Govt said "here are the facts, here is how to mitigate it, we trust each other to do the right thing."

    Boris has went, "youse are spastics, stay in and save lives... oops, there's 10,000 Care home deaths *with* Covid. oh fk, there's 6000 extra non Covid deaths as the thick ****s injected Dettol to treat a heart attack".

    The 200k line is in a subjective projection used in an ICL report by Neil Ferguson who predicted 300k deaths from CJD in the late 90s when Mon was 30 or thereabouts, so Ferguson has previous for exaggerated reports to receive State funding.

    Anyway - KAT

    The Swedes are highly educated and not mutants like the Brexit-voting UK population. We can't compare ourselves to them.

    I know the bank ****up killed loads of peeps, and don't get me wrong the same will happen this time too. It was a gamble, we'll see later down the line if it was the right one or not.

    The Swedes are mental ****ing Woke morons.
    They would rather have their women raped by 3rd world religious ****s and put up with hand grenade attacks on their police from their new Imported Swedish population than look racist .
