Pretty sure he's at number 10 these days.
He may go in that front door but where he ends up is anyone’s guess:-)

But most would of died anyway from fluI don't think it's quite really sunk in how big a number 30k deaths actually is for many. I'm really surprised how many are just kinda indifferent to it all. It's an awful lot. Did a quick calculation, and based on the UK population being 66m, that's 0.045% of the population who have passed away from this. Or one in every 2222 people in this country. Doesn't sound like much once again, but one in every 2222 people would be about 25 people out of a full Etihad stadium. That's pretty awful.
Now if the deaths are actually around the 50k mark like rumoured due to excess deaths, it's one in every 1333 people. Or 41 people out of a full Etihad stadium. I know the Etihad stadium thing is an odd comparison, but it made the numbers really hit home for me. That's a lot of people.
It's a fucking awful lot of death, and it makes me incredibly angry when you see how much of it could have been potentially avoided. We've got every right to look at Germany's significantly lower numbers and ask how we seemingly got it so wrong.
Obviously that death ratio is heavily weighted towards an older demographic too. Basically, the odds of someone's parents or grandparents passing away from this and just scarily small. Many more people should be taking this even more seriously than they are.
I didn't ask, a driver, two office staff & a production operator.Have they been advised on new working conditions and protocols to minimise risk?
I think you win callous and wrong post of the dayBut most would of died anyway from flu
One local (ish) example of rtw protocolHave they been advised on new working conditions and protocols to minimise risk?
The borders is the biggest screw up in my opinion and to be agreeing deals to allow road freight through the UK between Ireland and the EU at this time is just wrong.The Uk screwed up not closing the borders at first opportunity and not doing the lockdown early enough, and then not enforcing the one they have. Now relaxing the lockdown whilst its rising by 6k a day is madness. Every other country is relaxing it when the numbers are dropping day by day. words fail me with the ineptitude of who ever is making these decisions. Boris should know that you can't take risks with this virus, it can get anybody however invincible you think you are
