Can I ask a simple question and it will probably receive a simple answer?
If all this money we are printing didn't actually exist, why does it need paying back?
What's to stop the government just printing what we need when we need it?
I don't see why somebody needs to be owed a return on it?
Why do some posters on here have to give people shit all the time. He's got an impossible job trying to keep the feral cunts in this country under control and nobody could do any more with the selfish idiots that think the rules don't apply to them
I was enjoying your fake identities. Don't disappoint me and say they weren't you!Ban lifted, you’ll be glad to know.

It's unprecedented and only hindsight will prove anyone right or wrong. The worst could be yet to come and unless people start to behave like adults we are not getting out of this without serious consequencesFor what it's worth i think his approach to the whole crisis has been generally very good in many aspects, i think there are things he could have done differently but who knows if they would have made much difference.
at the end of the day the UK and all countries were caught sleeping with there pants around there ankles,but warnings were being waved by certain groups that it was brewing,we cant deal with something we dont understand so yes i back you up with your postFor what it's worth i think his approach to the whole crisis has been generally very good in many aspects, i think there are things he could have done differently but who knows if they would have made much difference.
Not really sure where we’ll be 6 months from now.
Someone with a current positive outlook tell me what they think will happen.
I’m just telling myself things will be ok this time next year and that we have to weather the storm until that point.
There is only ONE country that has dealt with this crisis perfectly - Taiwan... and only then because they were hit hard by SARS in 2003 and were determined not to let it happen again.
But less steeply than other countries. If they continue the way they are and avoid crashing their economy then they will have done well.With reference to Sweden, taking a starting point of 10 deaths their numbers are increasing quite a bit faster than neighbours Norway and Denmark.
That's it in a nutshell.I’m just telling myself things will be ok this time next year and that we have to weather the storm until that point.
Things will get better but I think we’ll have 20,000 people dying of this every Winter for the next few years at least.Not really sure where we’ll be 6 months from now.

Not very likely to be a few years, we’ll either have a vaccine or it’s so contagious it will burn out.Things will get better but I think we’ll have 20,000 people dying of this every Winter for the next few years at least.
While that sounds terrible, it’s actually not unusual. 26,000 died of flu in the Winter of 2017-18 with 50,100 excess seasonal deaths that Winter than the year before.
Even before COVID-19 hit us this season we were having a Winter of 800 more deaths a week than the average for five years before: https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www....er-people-died-week-8-higher-time-winter.html
But I do think COVID-19 will be here medium-long term because we can be asymptomatic at the start of having it or asymptomatic throughout having it full stop, therefore it’s easy to spread.
It’ll just become another every day illness that we’ll get used to living with and get used to people dying from like we are all the other illnesses that kill people.
Hopefully! But if it mutates to the point where vaccines need to be updated every year then it could be with us for a long time. It wouldn’t take much for someone to travel to a country that won’t be able to afford to vaccinate its entire population and bring a new strain back and its amongst the population here again.Not very likely to be a few years, we’ll either have a vaccine or it’s so contagious it will burn out.
I am in general a very objective stoic person but i would be lying if i said reading that paper did not dishearten me to an extent.thats very worrying for all 'everyone' i said on here weeks ago there is something more sinister in this virus that we dont know about and talk about getting asaulted i was hung out to dry for those comments, i still think the same and as this progreses its becoming more clear there are more sinister things
Track and trace to the max using phone SIM data + Mandatory wearing of masks + Max Hygene everywhere + Symptom monitoring to the max to enter buildings, public transport and stations.What did they do?
somewhere along the line i think were all worried for family,the only person who can infect our houshold now is the wife,on the till at ASDA so in prime contact,ive told her to pull sick with sciatica, i think the time has come now to pull the shutters downI am in general a very objective stoic person but i would be lying if i said reading that paper did not dishearten me to an extent.
It pushed me to double checking everyone was staying away from mums. I am also pushing dad to come stay with me as i self distance in general, i am not happy for him to be going out shopping every few days. The old goat can breathe in hot amonia fumes like it was fresh air due to being a production chemist but this is a different beast and i am not sure he fully gets that fact.
I am as close to worry as i have ever been if i am honest. Currenty at accute levels of concern, not for me but my family.
