Have you told her the promising news? Could sway them.
She's actually not one of the 3 and is still working like the trooper she is. Anymore though and the team will be decimated. She has visited 2 patients released from hospital back home with no test in the last week. She really needs to be careful. Many will **** it off when it finally sinks in that the government really dont give a ****.
 
I wish I could find evidence to persuade me otherwise but I think this pandemic has now been turned into the perfect opportunity for a bit of social cleansing by our government. I hope I'm wrong and it's just a case of them not being competent enough to run a country.

This is a moot point. I know during my father's last few months we were looking at local care homes and were appalled at the extortionate rates being charged and that was back in 2009, these places are solely concerned with profit. I'm so glad we made the effort to keep him at home untill he required palliative care in hospital...

They are everywhere mate

Do my nut in......no one cares and everyone ignores them.
And then some snotty little **** tells me to get behind the yellow line while I’m queuing to pay......yeah mate, so the stroppy bitch just turning up can push in front of me.
I sometimes wish I wasn’t on the side of the brow beaten worker then I could off told him to **** off.

Eh.....
Wasn’t that a post from Ellers yesterday ? I beginning to think he just copy and pasted it and pretended it was his own.

On a serious point, Soops.....you made a great decision. Speaking from experience I would rather die alone in a hospital bed than go into a care home.....

Don't buy that at all mate.
Incompetence? Absolutely.
I do believe they're trying their best and haven't been helped by confusing scientific advice and many people not up to the job.

More importantly.......one way aisles in Tesco......What the **** are they about. Complete waste of time

I don't see the problem with the one way isles.
The problem is the morons who ignore them, plus all the other social distancing advice.
The shops are trying their best imo, whilst obviously making huge profits.

I knew you’d be in agreement with them Col ;) (Only joking mate)

There are not enough people like yourself sooper. We live in such a money intoriated world that many just choose to put their elderley relatives in care homes. My mother looked after both her mother and father until they passed sacrificing a lot to do so.

I wish I didnt feel this way Col but some of the stories I've seen are nothing short of scandalous. I will give the benefit of the doubt and just put it down to incompetence. Boris filled his cabinet with 'yes' people for his brexit campaign over people who could actually do the job. They are so out of their depth.
 
Sorry Ellers
If you think 15,000 deaths and more to come in the private sector is good news then I throw my hands in the air.

Germany with a far bigger population than us is far, far below us in death and infection rate

We have been stupid and inept.
We are still stupid and inept


I keep saying where is an jota of leadership from anyone...I mean anyone!

(and please do not say corbyn...because I will top trump you with a major or cameron...just do not... because none of those 3 people are suppose to be leading us at the moment)
