Coronavirus

My business will be fine.

I've never claimed that everything can be solved by free markets, merely that governments should avoid interfering with them wherever possible. Some things obviously cannot be provided per individual - street lighting, defence, etc.

You read here first, Scara says "we are all socialists now."
 
If Phil the Greek is dead, there is no better testimony to migration into Britain. No Greek migrant ever did better than this individual.
 
You were talking about following what had been done. At the outset, the only example was China.

Following their actions would have killed the economy.

I mentioned china but also Singapore and South Korea. So no not the death of the economy.
 
Has he been reading my posts:D

Mass testing is vital...testing points, postal swab testing .. hopefully with high accuracy.

But the antibody test is even more important, so we know who is now a 'safe' person. And due to the fact the older generation have to hide away from 'non safe' people there is some sense, especially with kids (as the effect of the virus appears minimal to them), to push them thru the virus as quickly as possible so the 'safe' people category grows rapidly. (I bit like the chicken pox parties my mum talks of).

They should have all stayed at school in a closed controlled group to catch it, with minimal other social contact until clear if the virus...now they're out and about wherever. (Let's face it loads won't be staying in)

This would then also help with them permanently being able to continue with school and eliminate the difficulties with childcare, time off work etc.
 
Just been to the Post Office & my local store. Contactless payments being declined - customers having to physically enter pins via the keypad. Seems to be a system issue - same thing occurred in both places.

Couldn't make it up...

You mean measures that we were not sure (and still aren't sure) would have the required effect?

I know you're desperate to make this the fault of the evil Tories, but in this case our PM has done precisely what an sensible person would do. He's listened to a broad range of experts, had them all meet and come up with joint solutions and put them into effect quickly, updating the methods as and when the information changes.

I'm sorry but you can't pin this on them. If you want to pin it somewhere, take a look at your beloved communism over in China.
 
So talk is that despite the claims China is out the other side they are set for MK2 the revival of the spread
I can't see how they wouldn't be. If you just shut everyone away, then they have no immunity - the only way to get that is to wait for the vaccine.
 
I feel quite a lot better today thanks. My wife has had whatever we have for a week longer than me and felt better for a few days and then got worse again, hopefully, I won't get the same.
That was something we noticed when we had the 'thing' at the start of February. You would think you you felt a bit brighter then the next day feel awful again.

Mr Brown, who was in office during the 2008 financial crisis, urged Chancellor Rishi Sunak to do "considerably more" to protect jobs, saying the scale of the crisis now facing the country was “unprecedented”.
What a smug prick that pension stealing clam is.

Sits there during the biggest boom of many people's lifetimes, merrily spending us into debt then complains when a Chancellor still trying to recover from his mess doesn't spend more of the money we don't have.
