    It’s both isn’t it. Alcohol, cigarettes are killers and put strain on nhs, taxing them helps pay for it in theory. When people stop smoking the revenue from cigarette taxes reduces as does the impact on the nhs. It’s not linear obviously.

    Point is, you pay for other people’s lifestyles one way or another anyway. Probably better to help educate and motivate them.

    If you had read and understood my post your response doesn't make sense.

    That's totally incorrect. It's the excuse fat lazy parents use for having fat lazy kids.

    i read and understood your post, i was pointing out that its about extended families not just number of kids. You don't base the number of kids you have based on a potential future pandemic.

    Should people have kids they can't afford to bring up? Wider question and not ethnicity specific

    Frozen veg is extremely cheap, at most places (Iceland,Tesco,Asda) it is £1 for a bag, but most of these lazy gets probably can't even cook that.
    Easier to slam a microwave meal in full of the sugar and fat mentioned....eat ****,look ****

    selective editing there fella. I said, it was a lot easier to do it too.

    But it's dirt cheap to fill your freezer with frozen sh*t... bags of salad are extortionate.

    But maybe that's just my local waitrose ;)

    I have had no letter about vaccine. So today i searched online and found a link and was able to book just using my nhs number. Loads of appointments avaliable so i booked tuesday coming and second dose mid may. So as soon as your age group is announced do not wait for your letter.

    Could someone answer me a question, why would anyone want a vaccine if they're not ill, it can't stop you catching a cold or flu or other virus's, you can still pass on a virus if you get one, its not 100% effective, and you've got 99,9% chance of not croaking from a virus and many people have died after taking the vaccine?
    Cheers lads .. baaaa:emoticon-0105-wink:

    Over 95% of the over 80's in Yorkshire accepted the offer of having the vaccine.

    Don't listen to anti vaxxers they are talking bollocks.
