    I just listened to it now. I thought McCann did OK. I'm pretty much of the same view as him. I follow guidelines but we have to get back to normal where we can. What may seem to be frivolous activities to us are other people's livelihoods. I'm lucky in that I work from home.

    It was an important line of questioning for sure. 2 or 3 pertinent questions over 2 or 3 minutes would have been absolutely appropriate. 20odd questions over 10 minutes or more of the same stuff was imo ridiculous. Poor from Burnsey and poorly handled by McCann. Of course, others might have seen it differently, but I just thought it was embarrassing from both.

    Society as it stands has absolutely no consistency in what it wants from other people.

    You have people saying groups like Antifa are safe space searching flannels, but then simultaneously they're domestic terrorists, extremists and bat wielding maniacs who attack people on sight. You have people saying immigrants are coming over here nicking our jobs, but then simultaneously they're claiming jobseekers allowance.

    The same people who think we should implement national service to toughen people up pissed their pants when Gregg's announced their vegan sausage roll or when it was mooted that the Proms should change a couple of songs (I'm not saying I agree, just pointing it out). The same people that say things like "All lives matter" are very quick to make jokes about immigrants drowning in the channel, there's zero consistency and a stunning lack of empathy.

    We're incredibly divided at the moment for a number of reasons, I don't recall it ever being so bad. Our politics have become very Americanised and partisan, which has led to real problems and even families not talking to one another.

    It has never been this bad, frankly. And it's easily fixable, which is the most lamentable thing. If we can't even strip back the layers and get the most basic of human decencies toward each other right, how the **** can we ever attempt things that require far more ethical and moral decisions?

    The obsession with happens in the USA is strange. Of course it intensifies when the "wrong"party, ie not the democrat, is in power. The power mad narcissist in the Kremlin and the Chinese are more of a threat to us but we aren't bombarded with stuff about them.

    I think Russia are probably the biggest threat to the UK as it stands. Though I think I read somewhere that the Chinese have been contracted to build a load of nuclear power plants across Europe. Can't see that going wrong in any way at all.

    Presumably having a go at Trump is still OK? It always has got overlooked in the past.

    & Diane Abbot? Of course Trump is male, white & privileged so should be offered some protection.

    Good job Diane isn't also under 30 as well, then he'd hate her even more.

    You know, with us young people sNoWfLaKeS causing every single problem in the world, and all.

    Almost like most of the people at the top making the decisions for pretty much my entire life are boomers or something...

    Oh well. I'll just sit over here, being tolerant of other peoples. *shrug*
