Jonno if they put the unemployed on a brush sweeping the streets they would put the council workers on the dole .You give a fella dole he spends it keeps others in work .Dole is used to create work not only fund the unemployed .

There are many, many genuine people signing on through no fault of their own. They've been maybe made redundant and have paid their dues all their working lives. They're entitled, even though they'd rather be working.
But you have the other cohort who are career dolites, and as I mentioned they are quite capable of frequenting the boozer and bookies on a regular basis. The sums don't add up. There's a disconnect somewhere that needs to be fixed. Historically it's always been the way, so I can't see anyone grasping the nettle anytime soon.

Same problem all over the world with welfare.We live in a relatively wealthy country.If you don't pay the spongers enough they might turn to crime fukking things up for the lads with the big mansions.

Lots of cases, but few deaths, and how many are being hospitalised? Hopefully just bad flu like doses for the majority of younger profile people who are getting it. Any evidence that there are outbreaks in Staycation locations, or are they just in factory locations, particularly meat processors?
Trump has called for help, so I'm on a plane heading for The Strait of Hormuz, talk soon.

I'd say the risks of catching it in this country have sky rocketed. We now have more per 100 k than UK or Germany

I'm more sceptical about the numbers.If lots of people who have symptoms have it and aren't bothering getting tested then they have no idea how much of it is exactly out there.What about all the infected ones who don't get any symptoms?

Only real solution is to quarantine the vunerable until it's finished.If you don't wanna cocoon then be happy to die from it.I Know some OAPs would rather die than spend their last years even more isolated.

Unfortunately unlike the flu covid can leave some sufferers with side effects that could affect them if they get a second hit as there's no guarantee that they won't be susceptible to it again.

Meehawl on the twitter... The ominous wording of this statement is only a few short steps away from the inevitable I reckon.

none of the people out at night wear masks when getting into the taxi, you have to blame the drink, the wet pubs may as well be open, the nights don't go on as long but people are still as drunk at the end of the night as they were this time last year. some pubs are letting people stay as many hours as they want. people have very short memories, it's like the lockdown never happened.

not everybody is brainwashed.
I drove for the first few months after March and 90% of people said the whole thing is a loada bollocks.
after months of propaganda right now I'd say it's 50% in the loada bollocks camp, 40% are propaganda lemmings and 10% are severely brainwashed i.e., masks + rubber gloves + spoutin all the lockdown terminology at ye.
