    If WW2 happened now The Daily Mail & all it’s readers would be on the side of the virus & see it as the final solution to “our multi-cultural social care problem”.



    ... oh hang on a minute.

    Oh hang on a minute, that's the paper and it's readers who have been getting PPE into the country and more recently made in this country for NHS and care workers.

    Edit. and it's free and easy to see on-line.

    They're not the only ones not paying their fair share of taxes.

    Let's be honest, all the most accurate ways to describe that dodgy **** have already been uttered in the first 12 minutes of Full Metal Jacket by Gunnary Sergeant Hartmann.

    Fresh guidance for teachers from the country’s biggest teaching union suggests it will not be safe to mark children’s books and renews calls for PPE in schools.

    He's either lying or owns shares in the company that makes it. Probably both.

    His shareholdings and investments are in the public domain, as they have to be because of his position. According to Mike Cernovich, he has around 120,000 dollars invested in a fund, which has 14% of it's holdings in the pharma company that makes that particular drug, and when scaled to 'ownership', it works out that he has around 8000 dollars invested in the company. As much as the situation is strange and the man himself is strange, I don't think a billionaire having 8000 dollars on the line, would be worth him making a public announcement to gain so little financially. Even if the company goes up ten times in value, 80,000 dollars minus fees is hardly worth the effort and risk.

    There's a huge political and cultural war going on in the US, and to a smaller extent Europe, and the pandemic is being used by both sides as ammunition. Trump is just the figurehead and there are clearly huge resources behind and against him. It's hard to know what is true or not. Hard to discuss further without breaching terms and conditions of this site.

    I’d be really surprised if any schools were going to use books anyway.
