    It is food though and should be no more dangerous than going to a supermarket. Sitting together in a place of worship is another kettle of fish though.. That's my take on it anyway, but I understand that others will see it differently.

    The thing to learn from those countries is not to act like them. The west may be a bit **** but **** living in a one party dictatorship with no freedoms to criticise. China has a mass surveillance program while embarking on some large scale slavery and Russia regularly poisons those who show opposition to Putin. Try to go on like that over here and you will have huge civil disorder.

    I am sure you can buy fish and chips in a supermarket and straight away reduce your chance of dying by 50% must be worth looking at if you have half a brain.

    This is my only response and I'm saying knock it on the head. If you want to dearil threads, up to you, but most folk can't be arsed with folks having arguments and keeping them going. If you have an issue with what a poster has said, report them. It's canny simple.

    How do you get 50%? I can order fish and chips and then go pick them up. I might stand in a short q outside with my mask on, but thats preferable to walking round a supermarket with lots of other folk.

    I can only direct my anger to Boris via an election process -
    It’s my anger at a working (or unemployed) fella voting for a party that is, and has, only the interests of those with the ‘money’. How do l deal with anger at my ‘own kind’. :angry:

    If you don't mind I thought I would update this post as it helps me mentally.

    My brothers father in law passed away yesterday

    My cousin is better but her auntie has just been given the terminal diagnosis for cancer

    My mother in law is in hospital as of this this morning and they have just informed her / us they have found a growth on her bowel

    My sister is still stressed, tired and trying her best in impossible circumstances

    I ****ing hate 2020 and 2021
