The problem with this is all countries are in an arms race to get this stuff - who would you agree to supply first - the people paying up front or those who ask for credit

And had those tests been working and we hadn’t secured them, that twat would have been the first to be bitching

Guess what - we have pissed more money up the wall than ÂŁ20m

We are throwing billions about trying to get on top of this - normal procurement procedures have been put on hold for now

Hmmm. Might help me out then

Hope they paid by credit card and not debit.

You see I have less of a problem with the fact that they took a punt on these, it’s the fact that they formed part of Johnson’s narrative. They weren’t even in the country, hadn’t been tested for efficacy and still Johnson span a bogus claim out of it.

Yet British officials took the deal, according to a senior civil servant involved, then confidently promised tests would be available at pharmacies in as little as two weeks. “As simple as a pregnancy test,” gushed Prime Minister Boris Johnson. “It has the potential to be a total game changer.”

It’s another case of spin, spin, spin.

It’s raining, fats. :+1: :+1:

Is it just me or is announcing that football will return behind closed doors and live streamed but not actually having a date for it completely pointless?

And THAT’S why I live in a village in Carrotland with a population of about 600 (mostly over 60s). Beggars belief 
 and the old bill are there right amongst it too. Lost for words.

At least the world will be a better place once natural selection has taken place

I think the actions of the OB are the worst thing about it. They’re not enforcing shit. They’re just there enmasse putting on a fucking light show, probably infecting half the Met in the process.

If you ever thought that the plot of Die Hard 3 feasible (e.g. misdirect the limited resources of the authorities) then it’ll be even more feasible in about three weeks time.

I did point out to the person who posted this that it should really say “Thank you Boris, Cummings and the rest of you believers in Eugenics”
