Land of Hope & Glory? - UK Politics and other stuff

Good luck with that.

But they get rid of Ashley /s

So, uh, is there an estimate of how many people have actually recovered from the Coronavirus in the UK? And why don’t they release official numbers on that? (the only other country that does it is the Netherlands)

Is it more complicated than subtracting the deaths from the infections?

So depressing how we always choose to follow the shithead American path.

My hopes for EU membership were an eventual break in this slavish following of the cult of the individual, and joining the more measured and intelligent collective European line of thought.

Everything has gone to shit.

I mean, surely this is a typo and they’re going to multiply the two figures. Because even Boris and the lads wouldn’t be stupid enough to add them. Right?

Even at that this is stupid. Alert level 89,651 today, down from 91,542.

It’s not maths, it’s a basic English sentence which means very little. It’s just using mathematical symbols to lend an air of authority when all they actually do is confuse the reader. In reality the plus symbol just denotes the word “and”. What it actually means is something along the lines of "our Covid alert level will be based on both the present infection rate and the concurrent number of infections.

No shit?

Piers interrupted: “You, the First Minister of Scotland, doesn’t understand the new slogan of the UK Government that’s pretty serious isn’t it?”

She said: "That’s why I am sticking for now to ‘Stay At Home’, my message to Scotland and my duty is to explain to people in Scotland what I am asking them to do and why.

“So except for essential purposes which is essential work, shopping for food and medicine or exercise, I mean now, we’re saying you can exercise as many times a day as you like as long as you stay away from other people when you’re out. Apart from these reasons, my message is Stay At Home.”

I feel the same but I’m drawn in to these clips, there good and it’s the level to which we need, unfortunately no-one else atm can break through, hopefully he can break the glass for emergency then we can get moving into a scientific approach.

He won’t be a hero after this Marty, we all know they brought all this on themselves by allowing the tories to run free. :unamused:
