COVID-19 — Coronavirus

Well I think the Chancellor has just made a hell of a pitch to be the next Prime Minister.

He's better than the last one, that's for sure.

My son is due to get married next week, the venue refused any refund (several thousand pounds) for a cancellation or even a postponement.
Of the guests, several over 70's with diabetes, heart issues, crohn's etc., all advised to stay away. Several overseas guest who can't travel. Half a dozen kids with snotty noses and god knows what else. Even brides father (his only child) and me (my only son) are on the recommended no-go list. Some are saying just sod it, we all go and take our chances.

Just returned from local Tesco. Staff removing excessive items from some shopper's trollies. Big sign by the milk cabinet "2 Bottles Only", then some woman grabbing 8 and arguing with staff.
Some people's greed and selfishness!

Just proving how far we have declined as a nation since the ‘Dunkirk’ spirit shown in WW2. There are exceptions but there’s an awful lot of everyone for themselves out there - was in M&S on Sunday and some of the selfishness and greed on display was staggering.

Journalists being pricks again I see.

Well, at least we can rely so some things never changing.

Always moaning.

2022 Budget will be a barrel of laughs. ;-)

Let’s hope we all make it to have a laugh then

3 month mandatory mortgage holidays to be offered by banks, great news for home owners.

Are we sure it's mandatory and not "for those that need them"?

Always moaning.

They are called ‘questions’.

Last few days has been stressful, this finally feels like a government saying we got your back.
Sometimes you just need that

Hope all is well, my 6 year old was at A&E/portacabin that was set up for corona on Sat evening, had had a cough for a few days and her temp spiked to 39.8.
It was a chest infection and is on antibiotics and is much better now

Great to hear that Dicko.

Think it’s only if you are off ill with the virus? Could be wrong.
