Coronavirus

If you leave your front door...you can catch it.

indeed even if you stay indoors you can catch it because it sneeked in tucked between your box of Jaffa Cakes and 6pack multipacks of Seabrooks Beefy.

I know people who have caught it through no real fault of their own

Some people are slack as **** and cut corners with their social rules and it’s them who cause the spready danger. I know about 6 people first hand who have died around me so it’s defo a bit more than a cold...incase we still haven’t established that on this thread...since I only just pop in now n again.

I threw in a random comment that Wales voted for Brexit without specifying in great detail, because I didn't think it that necessary, that the rural farming community had shot itself in the foot and you responded with your usual smart arse snide dig.

I know what you are, just go **** yourself.

I know what you are too

I think as we have both highlighted, the end goal of selling the produce has been shocking for decades. The fisherman only have themselves to blame, were they really interested in the British consumer before Brexit, because if they were, I missed it. As much the supermarkets to blame as well, aside from ALDI because I know their methods are different to the norm and at least try and do things differently.

That's Capitalism though, free market economy dictates where and how produce is sold, sometimes with disastrous consequences for the environment. I don't think you can blame UK fishermen though, they catch what the market dictates otherwise they go out of business.

Ideally, in the UK we should be eating fish like Herring, Mackeral, Sardines etc. But there isn't really a market for it in the UK like there is for Cod and Salmon etc. So it pretty much all gets sold to the EU.

Good.

You'll know to steer clear then.

Or what?

Oh do **** off.

Tough guy.

we don't buy much UK caught shellfish for some reason . We buy titchy little frozen prawns while trucks charge down the country to get langoustine to Paris markets

go figure .

Yeah I wonder why that is mate. I think all Brexit has done, has highlighted it and opened up the whole can of worms (pun intended). The UK market has always been strong for selling fish and shellfish as far has I'm concerned, but we get the shhite end of the produce and have our pockets fleeced at the same time. So the fisherman need to fook off and take a good look at themselves in a mirror. Trying selling decent produce to the British markets for a change, then cry me a river after, not before they've tried to do what they should have been doing all along.

Yeah you can’t help people’s tastes. Not quickly anyway despite Redwood calling for us all to start eating langoustines.

You also can’t expect people in a country with historically low produce prices to suddenly pay a lot more.

I think you'll probably find a lot of British people don't eat fish/shellfish, because as i highlighted earlier, it's of poor quality and overpriced. Fish could easily become part of our diet, especially in a time when people are increasingly moving away from meat. Along with managing the environmental impact.

You put decent fish in the supermarkets, I will buy it. If you don't, I'll spend the money on meat.

As far as i can see it became a vicious circle in that years ago most people stopped using a fishmonger & instead just got what was in the supermarket which for ages was quite limited . As demand fell they found new markets and we became set in our ways so just buy what we know leaving us with the very limited fish / shellfish range that the vast majority in this country eat ..
The good news is i think this is beginning to change slowly as people can now much easier find out about products on the net including how to prepare and use plus loads of recipes .

I love fish mate. As you allude to they need to adapt. Sell me decent produce at a fair price and I will buy it. I'd much rather have fish than meat if it's of a decent quality. It wouldn't move me away from meat, but it would help me create a better balance within my diet.

Just to let you know apart from Milk & Bigsmithy we don't live in the USA .
Oh and we did a similar but less extreme thing here as well .

Correct, as well as Oxford killing 25% of patients in their HC drug study. The death rate from COVID even for the old is well below 5%
They gave them x3 x4 times the safe doses, 1\4th died.

[Welshie]

Not that this is a Brexit thread but going back to the EU funding and such like, same applies to Wales as Cornwall.

Loads of EU funding here, a load to farmers etc., and still Wales voted more or less unanimously for Brexit.

And they would vote unanimously to stay as part of the UK too, there is no desire for independence here.

At all.

Never got the sense that anyone in Wales was ever serious about independence either, perhaps people in the valleys, but certainly no one who lives around a major town or anything. You can see all the money comes from England right before your eyes, as in **** tons of English people all over the gaff spending cash.

Not even Plaidd Cymru really advocate for full independence anymore, think 2 years ago they said being a federation was better. I dunno what the point is to be quite frank.

[Spurlock]

Lol I call my snoody a snookie, drives my bird mad. Got my own language and that

 

[Tel (they/them)]

I don't really know what the actual figures are, but certain regions it was unanimous, mainly rural. Ergo the farmers. But hey, you know better.

What the **** has that got to do with anything though, you ****ing arsehole, other than to try to have a dig at me, ****?

Oh, and of course people can have accidentally caught it.

However, it has been massively helped along by people ignoring it.

But, but the government and that.

In the meantime, just **** off you utterly tedious prick.

afternoon bro, you k?

I hope you wash your hands and wear a mask before popping into this thread
