Current Affairs Coronavirus Thread - Serious stuff !!!

Yes, they'll bend and shape and twist all kinds of data and people will be slaughtered on an industrial scale.

We are nearing a very big moment in the nation's history between democracy and corporate fascism.

How Is this slaughtering to be done ?

Death rays from space beamed down from a Tory Death Star ?

the end of the EU Transitional period, if it goes ahead as planned, will absolutely destroy the economy in the short term. There’ll be no furloughing to help businesses through the situation, it’ll be a case “find your own solution”.

You could see small business fold over night due to massive delays at the border; if these checks are referred inland there’ll be a gaping hole for exploitation.

Yes it doesn’t have an immediate public health impact like COVID-19, but the far greater implications will be detrimental to a generation.

couple all that with the current lockdown situation and it’s a massive recipe for disaster

Comical Ali doesn't care about that. He's here to spin.

I can't help but feel the lunatics have consumed this thread. It was fun when there was a single loony, but they appear to have multiplied

I’m sorry to be honest. Got stuff going on at the moment and directing my anger. I’ll stop.

That apology goes to you too @peteblue. I’m just spoiling for a fight.

I apologise.

You're thinking about Plumbers who own a pair of scissors aren't you!

Little scamp

So what you are saying is @Paris is a welsh hairdressing plumber that likes creme eggs and spit roasts

Central banks are getting closer to issuing their own digital currencies. If they do, the dollar might finally face real competition as the world’s dominant currency.

Seems that they're going to use this virus to push a digital currency. Seen another article saying Bill Gates and credit card companies are big advocates too and set to benefit from it. Considering they see bitcoin which is decentralised as a problem its clear their digital currency be centralised still which is part of the problem with our current system.

I would helpfully suggest a comparison chart, however, we know who comes out on top don't we, so useful for me, but not for you or similar minded.

Snobby sport , Boris plays tennis......Golf used to be an elite sport - still is if you play at posh courses per annum....
Angling though is the most popular sport in the UK......ever played any of these or patipated in these spots?
I played golf in my youth on a municipal course, and did some sea fishing spinning off the rocks.....never played Tennis ...

Is that because they would not put salt on the cucumber sandwiches

I'm inclined to think both you and Pete have value to add to the thread to be honest, but there's so much conspiracy twaddle at the moment it's become very hard to filter the valuable stuff from the page after page of nonsense.
