:covid_19: 😷 🏥 Corona Virus the thread for all your fears ❓

In other news today.
“Turkey farmers have received a welcome pre-Christmas boost after being told by the government that thousands of seasonal workers coming to the UK from Europe to help slaughter and pluck birds for festive tables will be exempt from 14 day quarantine”.

Of course it’s well known that meat providing facilities are immune from spreading Covid-19. Oh… hang on a minute!
The UK once again leading the charge in the race to the bottom, led by the absolute fuckwits in government.

“…Mr Johnson said on Wednesday evening that he was making the announcement “in the teeth” of the coronavirus pandemic because “the defence of the realm must come first”…”

So Joe Public now knows where He / She really stands in the Government’s grand scheme of things…

Numbers going down in Southampton. All good in the hood.

Sky News reporting 1 in 7 businesses at risk of collapse and fearing they cannot survive the next 12 weeks. This is going to be a very long, hard Winter with untold damage to the economy that will take years to resolve.

So, you blame the Health Minister then? :thinking::grin::grin:

:roll_eyes:

Oops.

In his defence, they did a cracking job, did all the BSI Testing, created special packaging.
Looks like it is now a witch hunt

Got a mate that I don’t see too often that thinks hemp is the god plant. Can’t think of too many other plants with quite as much utility. Cloth, rope, big biftas and also, food if you get the munchies :slight_smile:

Yeah but China doesn’t do deep fried Mars Bars.

I do find this fetishisation of Sturgeon as a “good leader” to be a load of old shite. When it comes down to it, her essential quality is that she is not Boris Johnson and she is relatively decent as a public speaker.

Johnson recently said devolution had been a disaster. In the case of Scotland, I’d agree. It’s a bit like Brexit in it is not the concept that is broken. It’s the implementation. They’ve been in power 13 years up there, longer than the Tories have been in power in Westminster.

They have complete autonomy over health and education and have fucked up both because they’ve used devolution as a means to get independence, not exploit the new powers they have.

Fetishism & Sturgeon.

Eeuk.

Gonna need a lot of vodka to get that image out the brain to be able to sleep again.

I fucking hate injections. I can’t even bare the thought that a diabetic colleague actually tests themselves at work - it gives me the shits
