‘They laughed when I said I wanted to be a comedian. They’re not laughing now’

Aussie John Kerr sacked him, you Aussies don't like taking responsibility for anything do you ? Do you all stand in a big circle pointing at each other ?
Just the same when you cheat at cricket, always someone else's fault. ;)

“Always someone else,” eh? Cannot accept any responsibility. It’s the immigrants fault eh? They’re the reason your life’s not what you want?

Pathetic!

The brits 'invented' concentration camps. Are you getting confused, Jonny?

jonny didn’t say that... it’s broadly true though. The Spaniards did something pretty similar in Cuba, earlier but in terms of herding whole regions of women and children out of the homes into terrible disease ridden camps where thousands upon thousands of them died. That was us I’m afraid.

Both Germany and the USA are experiencing fresh outbreaks of C-19 since their relaxing of distancing rules, now the UK are thinking of doing the same. Does no-one learn from others' mistakes? Here in Queensland our State Premier is steadfastly refusing to open up our borders with other states and is being roundly castigated at her approach. Both New South Wales and Victoria have relaxed their rules and are both experiencing outbreaks of the disease but are complaining to the federal Government that their people can't come into Queensland. Why? Do they want to spread the load, as it were? I am not particularly supportive of our Premier, but I do believe that she is doing the right thing in trying to keep C-19 at arms length. Queenslanders can move about freely within our own state (I could visit Eric if I wanted too, but I don't) but not move outside our borders.

No you bloody can't!! and it's to not too, but apart from that. To be honest I would have no problem opening the borders to the rest of Australia and even NZ apart from Victoria and NSW.

Yes I've seen on the news Victoria are panic buying toilet roll again. Lol
Germany have had one factory with 1300 cases, it's just a flare up and not a national spread, and the USA, thick ****s, never got it under control at any stage, they think they can shoot it.

Yes, Victoria have got it really bad 20 new cases today and only 9 of these were in hotel quarantine so 11 cases of community transmission. There is talk about putting local areas into lockdown and so there is a fear that panic buying will happen again. The major supermarkets have therefore restricted purchases of selected items, just in case. We also had another coronavirus death today, the first in just over a month.
 
When [HASHTAG]#BLM[/HASHTAG] in the U.K. stated that there is systemic racism in this country the nation was confused. Confused because this nation had fought so many prejudices including Fascists, communist, racist apartheid, ultra far right, ultra far left, anti-women’s votes.
We now have equal opportunities for all races, equal opportunities for all ages.
We ended xenophobia and joined the EU in 1973 only twenty eight years after World War Two ended.
The sheer volume of Aid money that we give to non-white countries is amongst the highest in the world!
The abolitionists of slavery were white Christian British and American men! No nation has ever questioned the morality of slavery apart from Western culture. Where does this understanding of morality come from? Perhaps it’s six thousand years of written history. From the Hebrews being enslaved by Egyptians to Africans being enslaved by the Ottoman Empire to Europeans being enslaved by the Barbary slave trade.
Through the collection of history, philosophy, psychology and human rights laws we as a British nation were able to be reasoned with through a process called Western education!
William Wilberforce stopped two-thirds of the slave trade and made it unprofitable. Unfortunately slavery has mutated. This mutation doesn’t discriminate against gender or colour! From nail bars to brothels. From child pornography to sex slavery. Most recent form of slavery is Vietnam victims being traded in Europe for forced labour.
Something that the western world continues to fight.
Immigrants continue to come to this country in the tens of thousands and continue to apply for green cards in the US because the alternative is poverty, slavery and genocide. We are dealing with immigrants running away from homosexual persecution or ethnic cleansing or criminal gangs from the Middle East or Africa as a whole. This Great Nation has nothing to fear from racism guilt or 170 year old slavery guilt. We do not go around looking at pictures of Adolf Hitler and start to hate Germans. We do not look at Benito Mussolini and hate all Italians. We do not look at Hideki Tojo and hate all Japanese. These dead, inanimate statues or paintings or flags do not cause us to demand the eradication of history or compensation for what happened before we were even born! [HASHTAG]#BLM[/HASHTAG] in this country has truly exposed their personal prejudices against the school teachers who lovingly guided and educated them to a point that they were able to attend University and get top honours. This nation has paid million for the training of a wonderful Olympic team. From Mo Farah who is now Sir Mohamed Farah to Jessica Ennis-Hill who is now Dame Jessica Ennis-Hill. The list goes on!
Dina Asher-Smith, Katarina Mary Johnson-Thompson, Denise Lewis, OBE,
Dame Kelly Holmes, Nicola Adams OBE, Linford Cicero Christie OBE, Kezie Uchechukwu Duru Akabusi, MBE, Christine Ijeoma Ohuruogu, MBE and Anthony Oluwafemi Olaseni Joshua, OBE!
We have all watched as Lewis Hamilton never once refused to race for Mercedes Benz despite the company having a history of Jewish slave labour during the Second World War or refuse to have Hugo Boss on his race uniform because of Hugo Boss manufacturing of Nazi uniforms. Blaming current Germans or Italians or Japanese for what happened 75 years ago is a clear sign of prejudice, self-centredness and narcissistic behaviour!
To accuse the British public for what happened over 170 years ago is racist! To enjoy the benefits of Western education, human rights and financial security and use abusive guilt tripping language only spells out prejudices towards the very white individuals who helped shape this current great nation. This is not ignorant behaviour due to lack of knowledge from not having spent time physically in Africa or Asia.
This is years of systemic envy, greed and lust towards those who produce. All these emotions lead to hate and that then leads to racial and fascist propaganda.
The British public has a right to keep their history, good or bad. British people should not have their history erased or national flag removed or national anthem changed because of racist individuals pretending to be “oppressed or disenfranchised” because they have never received what years of media has promised them. All lives matter to all families under our sovereign laws!

Unless there's a vaccine comes out, it's not going to go away, talks of flights starting again, including Australia, China, and New Zealand with European countries, Europe's not trying to get rid of the virus, just contain to low numbers,so don't know how you will get on when flight's return.

Talk as much as you want you aren't coming here without 14 days quarantine, which we are going to make people pay for, but flights can start again on that proviso

We have that here and it’s a great success. You can either fly into Ireland via Dublin and quarantine for 14 days or fly into Belfast and travel south with no quarantine. That’s the way to keep the virus at bay <doh>

Mad Irish airline are bringing the second wave to all soon, anyway.
