COVID-19 — Coronavirus

Today at London Fields Park, Hackney.

We are fucked, are we living in THE most idiotic country? Maybe only USA (“inject bleach everyone”) and Belarus (“just drink more vodka, you’ll be fine”) are higher on the idiocy rankings.

I think Brazil are giving it a good go as well, pushing old blighty and the US of A land of the free a damn good run for their money.

London Fields has experienced a huge growth in popularity in the last 20 years – and house prices have followed suit

I merely saw it on BBC News at 10. It’s reasonable to assume the news would vet a photo before showing it. Hardly my mistake!

You shown it. You own it.

Great advice. Myself and my wife tried that sex thing we’ve heard about this afternoon. Was fun.

I've reviewed my earlier response to this post and have concluded that jealousy is a cruel mistress. I'm extremely happy that my advice was well received.

Siren voices - here's Dr John
"Ten reasons why I believe that it is wrong to continue with lockdown and why we should start to reverse it immediately and rapidly."

1. You cannot understand the significance of this virus simply by looking at the raw death figures

2. The policy response to the virus has been driven by modelling of Covid – not other factors

3. We don’t know if lockdown is working

4. We should ease the lockdown to save lives

5. Lockdown is not sustainable

6. Lockdown directly harms those most likely to be affected by coronavirus

7. Lockdown directly harms those who will be largely unaffected by coronavirus

8. The health service has not been overwhelmed nor likely to be

9. The virus is almost certainly not a constant threat

10. People can be trusted to behave sensibly"

This guy is talking out of his backside and clearly doesn't know what is happening.

Walked by that strip of grass outside footbal museum in Manchester today on my way to pickup supplies. Must've been a dozen couples or singles laying around sunbathing. This was late afternoon so goodness knows how many were there at midday.

He’s right mate, I saw it myself.

edit....tell a lie, it’s very similar photo though.

Lost count of the number of times people post pics/videos that are from a completely time/place to try to prove their point of view without doing the simplest of checks. We are slowly and surely being brainwashed by the brainwashed. Think for yourselves people, please.

Does sunbathing present a particular risk ?

Is it the BBC throwing it out ?

I don't doubt it but the other image is from last year. I see this going on in a much smaller scale but I believe that there's enough of us to see this through, regardless of a minority of fuckwits.

You're right mate, Cycling has made me happier, it's that space I need of my own for a short while.

Can certainly appreciate that. I sometimes just go upstairs on my own, away from the missus and little un. Watch a film, study (I am doing a free course with Harvard University) or watch YouTube videos. Occasionally do an extra walk on my own. Not to mention a bit of DIY too with my headphones on :)

That place, during normal times at least, is a goth haven. We should probably celebrate them getting a bit more sunlight.

Manchester City centre should have banned cars a couple of years ago

could be a game changer for the city if they have balls and ambition .

Agreed, let's do it .

Looks like we are getting this new slogan tomorrow

"stay alert, control the virus and save lives"

Various papers and the news

I think they should have put something about maintaining space

The tabloids have handled this crisis as bad as they do football. Lies, sensationalism, half truths, stupid questions and comments. They are utter scum with only a few minor exceptions.

Why are you still buying into this half truth, nonsense ? It's no better than the "City linked to..." bollocks.
It's like you're fanning the flames at every opportunity.
I know life's shite all round but don't do the devil's work for him.

Is that for the Oxford one ?

No. I think the move came from National Institutes of Health in the US which means it will have an impact on the US vaccine trials. I doubt the move will happen imminently but if the US changed their policy then that might make an impact internationally.

The story in only available to subsribers now so I can't read it and check.
