Not talking about the Covid response more so there are swathes of folk who cant wait to jump on anything in order to hate on the country.

Might be because my arl fella served in the army but it winds me up sometimes - UK aint perfect but nowhere is whereas the way some carry on you would think they were living in some shack in the outskirts of Nairobi.

Her response was a reply to a blatant childish "my dad's bigger than your dad" comment by the incompetent tory twunt Williamson.

And I can understand folk from France, Belgium & US laughing at that - but its like our own people are not happy unless they are slagging us off.

its like Everton fans moaning at a club employee saying we're a better club than Spurs or Villa.

May or may not be true but dont get why its own fanbase would rip into them for saying it.

As usual, a generalisation you've made there. The government's abject performance throughout this pandemic needs to be brought to account...thats what this issue is about.

The Government have been useless - but there are still clowns talking about the days of empire in that tweet.

Utter whingebags.

An anti-body kit or antigen?

Isn't antigen the one that tells you if it's in your system at that time (or within a week or two?).

I know the anti-body test I did had two factors to it ('M' and 'G').

You could test negative for both (I did), or positive for one, negative for the other, or positive for both of them. One of them meant that you currently had the type of antibodies which suggested that you'd had COVID within the last month, and then the other was if you had the antibodies which would last in your system longer (3-6 months IIRC).

The one that @COYBL25's wife gets may well be more advanced, now.

Superdrug were selling antibody kits. The technology has always been there, they just weren't supplying them. Whether they are now more sensitive kits I dont know.

Because its complete nonsense, and if any Everton club employee had said that at some times in these past twenty five years we'd have absolutely been right to slate them - especially when (as with this moron) they were responsible for the state we are in.

This country is heading down a road towards failure because of idiots like him.

Meanwhile the UK has become the first county in Europe to surpass the grim milestone of 60,000 coronavirus fatalities, Government data shows.

As of 9am this morning a a further 414 have people died within 28 days of testing positive for Covid-19, bringing the UK total to 60,113 - just three weeks after reaching the 50,000 milestone.

According to data from Johns Hopkins University, only the United States, Brazil, India and Mexico have recorded more coronavirus deaths during the pandemic.

Britain is "A much better country" - Gavin Williamson.

I get this all the time cos I am very anti-tory..."why do you hate the country so much.."

Simple truth is, if the tories had not caused hundreds of thousands of austerity deaths over the last ten years and had not handled this pandemic embarrassingly poorly, I would have no issue with them.....


Boris now pulling the rug from the rest of Europe and the US by chucking the vax out ahead of obvious protocol, in order to look like some sort of fat, toff saviour, is disgusting. It's cheap and shameful. He has messed this up so much but using this vax to look like GB father Christmas.... disgrace
