The virus comes from bats. End of story.

You’ve become a parody account.

Reading a lot of posts here today, it never ceases to amaze me how many people Hoover up Tory disinformation from the press and social media.

Theresa May: Nationalism is no ally in this battle without borders

An aspect of the prime minister’s role which is usually glimpsed only through occasional displays of pomp and circumstance is a near-constant interaction with other world leaders. Set piece events like the D-Day commemorations or G7 meetings are only the tip of a diplomatic iceberg of daily co-oper

Sadly, it never surprises me.

There's a serf like mentality to the British working class.

Seemed like Labour really put the Tories under pressure in the commons today, very tacit admissions of dropping the ball in a few settings by the Tories particularly on PPE and Care homes, its good to see actually.

Part of acknowledging that mistakes have been, is beginning to rectifying those & solve problems and its good to see the UK Government moving that way today.

Now flatten that curve FFS.

Worryingly, I wouldn't be thinking of lifting restrictions on Monday mind.

The ending of the lockdown is a purely commercial decision here, as it is in the US - two societies way behind the recovery of advanced European nations and a country mile behind South Korea, Singapore and China.

The lockdown should be tighter, in fact.

So we've gone over 30k deaths today.

Is the lockdown announcement due tomorrow ?
Huge decisions coming up and I can see them ballsing it up.

Here is your answer.. The Government have used the powers of the COVID19 bill to fast track processes NHS England. And some companies seem to have no issues at all getting on the NHS gravy train. More pertinent question would be, why do some companies have no problem at all, my guess its not the free market...

"Deloitte, KPMG, Serco, Sodexo, Mitie, Boots and the US data mining group Palantir have secured taxpayer-funded commissions to manage Covid-19 drive-in testing centres, the purchasing of personal protective equipment (PPE) and the building of Nightingale hospitals". Never waste the opportunity of a good crisis.
