Was about to reply with exactly this - plus the BoE will surely soon start QE again and perhaps negative interest rate on reserves.
Good on the banks though. They certainly havenāt forgotten who bailed them out last time.
Everybodyās socialist nowadays.
This is fucking shameless.
Did you know that they arenāt bothering to count or announce the deaths of nurses?
āI didnāt know that. We will sort that outā
I am fucking speechless!
Scandalous.
Thread.
āThree weeks behind Italyā
Singapore heading for lock down
Their PM has admitted that despite their amazing contact tracing they are not able to successfully trace and track less than half of the known cases
Huge spike in cases in scouse land
After they played a Spanish team.
Who knew?
I do have a slight issue with this, and its also why the WHO and other countries hold backā¦

If not used, applied correctly, these measure give a false sense of security and have no impact⦠eg, putting on gloves and then taking them off without touching them⦠not easy⦠you simply transfer the virus from the outside of your glove onto the tins you pick up, or your hands or everything you touch with them on ā¦

Masks prevent spreading, and only really prevent infection for those who come into close contact with the infected⦠this can encourage folks with symptoms to go out when they should stay at home⦠same applies when putting on or taking off as with glovesā¦
Overall, for the public as a whole, the best advice is still, isolate as much as you can, social distance and wash your hands after returning home, and also after touching items you have brought into your home - every time until they have been in the home for at least 3-5 daysā¦
Save the PPE stuff for those who really need it, healthcare and critical workers who have no choice but to come into contact with infected folks.
Pretty much everyone in the city, including the Liverpool FC manager, who believes that it was ācriminalā to have played the game.
Unlike David Lammy, who yesterday said it was ācriminalā that Premier League footballers ostensibly wonāt take a 70% pay cut (law is obviously not Lammyās strong point), I think Klopp has a point.
Those dates line up too well.
I wear rubber gloves when I walk the dog because I climb over metal gates to walk over isolated fields. When I get home I wash my gloved hands with soap and water, peel them off and let them dry on the window sill. I wear them to collect post and parcels during the day then throw them away.
Aināt perfect but better than nothing.
We must be getting to the spike of the Mothersā Day Massacre as well - that sunny weekend when half the country went on a fucking picnic.
Will some of those people ever join the dots?..or are they the same group who are too busy clapping in direct contrast to their voting record of the last decade?
Aye, but you could get same effect just by washing your hands⦠My point is that for many it will make them feel they are āsafeā when reality is that without proper use, these measures are useless⦠and thus IMHO more dangerous
I spot another furloughing opportunity
Our 103 yr old neighbour has been reminiscing about the Spanish flu that she lived through
Well in my defense I think carefully about everything I touch outside the home at the moment. I went to get a newspaper on Sunday but I wonāt be doing that this weekend. Not visited a shop since then. Saturday our weekly online shop arrives which will be carefully wiped clean before being put away.
Wearing rubber gloves focusses my attention, not makes it less.
Carelessness could cost lives.
A mask and gloves ARE helpful as are a pair of glasses/sunglasses They reduce the amount of times you can inadvertently touch your face.
Gloves are sprayed & wiped with sanitizer BEFORE removal then washed at home when doing the post outside scrub down.
Obviously it wont work for the idiocracy but thenā¦
