Do you think people are grabbing your chips by hand and putting them into a bag?

Same with a kebab. Scraping the kebab meat off the rotator with their fingers no doubt :pac:

Maybe it's me but I just want to lock myself up and have no interactions with people at all. I don't even want to walk past them on the footpath.

This was me... pre corona!

More anti British ****e. You lot have a severe ex-colonial hang up. Our own country needs our focus. Why not give out about the Spanish and Italians?

It's not anti British, its anti Cummings and Borris, I think Labour would have done a better job, in fact anyone would have. BJ has watched what happened in China and Italy and did nothing, who else is to blame?

Who are "you lot"?

Borris wants to spread the blame. He will be held up as the worst UK PM when the body count comes in.

Can you think of anything more derisory than Johnson seeking such a thing after spending the last few years doing nothing but trying to create dischord and disharmony. What a prick.

Another ‘elephant trap’ for Labour?

not really.

There is nothing that Boris has done so far that one of the devolved assembleys could not have over ruled if they chose.

Education for example, is a devolved competance, so the SNP, DUP or Labour could have closed the schools in Scotland, NI or Wales if they wished to.

In Scotland, the SNP could have ordered a full Italy style lockdown if they so chose, but they seem to be pretty aligned with central government.

What is the best salad dressing? or does anyone have any good recipes? I want to be prepared for when my window sill harvest is ready for eating.

God my heart breaks for them

They must have felt a tiny glimmer of hope that they were through the worst of it in the past couple of days. Hopefully the numbers will drop again tomorrow.

Any chance this will blow over in the next week to ten days? Getting the feeling we've seen the worst/won't effect us majorly.

Trump said he wants the US to ease coronavirus restrictions and be 'raring to go by Easter,'

Surely he can't follow through with this lunacy if death tolls are still rising or plateauing at a high level come Easter

I am amazed at how many people are big into the gym, running, jogging and general fitness. WOW.

And yet you just have to look around you to see many overweight people.

Anyway, forced isolation might make many go out for a permitted walk at least, even twenty minutes, half an hour whatever instead of staring at screens and Instagram etc. Could be good for us all.

By Easter a huge humanitarian disaster will have unfolded in the US. We are really seeing what a fool he is.

There's always a chance but I'd say it's a similar likelihood to pulling a lad off a barstool after 12 pints and expecting him to race against Usain Bolt over 100metres and beat him.
A lot of places were still fully operational staff wise up until 5-6 days ago so we're getting into **** hit the fan category over the next few days from my limited understanding of it.

I would suspect they will be fine, I would think people are still stocked up from the panic buying.

Well aware of that. So why are you so insistent a vaccine won't work because the virus mutates?
