Tory mp Jake Berry has flouted lock down rules and has turned up at his holiday home near here with his family for the second time since his own party announced lock down restrictions. He has threatened legal action against anybody reporting this in the press lol .... one rule for us and another for themselves... rats ... typical Tory rats

Get Piers Morgan to ask him about it

I don't think it's going to happen.Which is worrying for so many of us.The thought of being out of work for another 12 months on top of the 6 we have just done is something I am dreading.

Greece and Spain are going to be so badly hit by this. You guys in particular because you're so exposed having hardly been touched by the virus so I can't see it being safe to let us Brits in

So you can officially play Tennis today, how you going to stay safe, wash your hands after every service game?

He's not thought it through has he.

Why would you need to ?

You can play tennis with somebody from your household.

I think to have a tourist season you need to have tourists
The clue is in the name lol

Well they seem pretty confident. They'll get more than us, that's for sure. We're behind every other nation in Europe.

I can't believe the plaudits he's getting for shouting and snarling at people and not allowing them get a word in edgeways.

You are right.The place I work is a Brits only complex 28 rooms.Even if Brits do come he won't open on 40% maximum capacity.It is just not financially viable for him.

Honestly, people who talk about herd immunity, I hope they go ahead and get the virus injected in them and are willing to pay for their treatment... They must be thinking this is like a simple flu or cold.

There are now increasing concerns over fibrosis, I wonder how you are going to deal with them if you are hoping the whole population get infected.

You mention fibrosis in your post...what concerns specifically? Genuine question as I have the pulmonary variety. Has this been discussed at government level? Is there new guidance available? Any info would be helpful.... Thanks

Its easy to ask questions when you have no accountability, but so difficult to answer correctly, more so when you have a blert like him, as you say, not allowing them to speak.

Worse in care homes than is being reported according to LSE.

Exclusive Real care home death toll double official figure, study says

"The figures came as the Alzheimer’s Society said care homes have been “left to fend for themselves” amid continuing shortage of personal protective equipment and testing for residents and difficulties isolating infected residents.

It said that of more than 100 homes surveyed last week, 43% were still not confident of their PPE supply, with one home resorting to taping bags around carers’ arms, feet and hair. Fifty-eight percent of homes said they were unable to isolate residents and a third said they have taken in Covid-19 positive patients discharged from hospital".

Sorry if it’s been asked before, but what is the work/non work/furlough situation in Greece?

These people can't help themselves. Do they really think nobody will notice?
