Surely it must be made his / her tagline? Affluent and likeminded
Haven't posted for 8 days. I'm not sure they plan to try and live it down.
brilliant. They're a legend. Each time I see affluent and likeminded posted it genuinely makes me smile which is priceless right now.OMG .... Speechless
I note that secret millionaire Bum_Flu has forgotten his moral outrage over anti-Semitism now Jezbollah's been sidelined...
If there's one thing people should take away from this crisis, it's the importance of unions. If you're not organised then you're relying on the generosity of tories which is never a good situation to be in.
Yeah, It wasn't as if he was enforcing anything. And the threat of enforcing idiots with police is pointless, the people he's aiming his words at call the police pigs. He should have really taken real brutal measures and enforced a curfew because its the only way these sheep will listen and feel afraid at the genuine chance of catching the virus and killing someone.
If they wanted to work through it, they can give money to everyone and then deduct it at the next tax season.
Need to change the key edit.
Some good news in Spain, a drop in deaths to 385 and 4537 cases but this could be from Sunday/Monday slowdown.
You can see a big drop in deaths around sunday/monday. 10th, 16th, 24th
I saw the tweet which says "essentially immune" Which means when looking at the stats there's so few, so therefore essentially immune. Doesn't mean every kid is immune, it's like almost or virtually. There's no need to witch hunt or leave out words. When a football game is 5-0 with 5 mins to go it's "essentially over" but isn't quite over, just a figure of speech.

I have a sister in law and a niece positive in the USA. One is a doctor and the other is a RN in charge of a ward. Both have nothing to protect themselves.

Yes, it's not a simple process. If you want to be quick and offer a flat fee, then there is the risk of undercooking the numbers for some self employed workers. Self employment 18 months ago might have very different accounts to now.
Just seen outside my window a group of four middle aged women going for a stroll. It’s ok though because they seemed to be wearing Belstaff and Barbour Jackets so must be quite affluent.
At this point, its a health hazard.
Millions are still going to work because the alternative is £94 a week sick pay, and they will starve.
Just pay them all the average national wage, £500 a week. Some people will get it who don't need it, but the alternative is people not having any way of stopping work and continuing to spread the virus.
Give them all the money and they can sit at home like we all want them to.
One look at Twitter shows that a lot of Americans thinks this is just the common cold and are up in arms about "freedom of movement" yada yada. FFS!

Really interesting with the death rates on Sunday/Monday.
But that's still within our half lockdown rules as long as they all live in the same place, no?
Edit - If you're UK based.
Following SARs and now this if the rest of the world does not isolate China until they change their ways once this crisis is over then shame on us.
The Texas gov seems to be calling to all senior citizens to give up their lives for the new generation. I think it will be a grave mistake to assume only the old are affected. There are many people in their 30s to 50s in US who have other major health problems or have fought cancer and stuff. They are all vulnerable.
Yea i think i will just stick to Chicago Town pizzas for the time being.
Middle aged women usually live together in groups of 4 or more
Actually it's the selfishness of unions, and how they don't give a feck about anything or anybody as long as they get what they want. There was a nationwide strike here yesterday across multiple industries in protest at the restrictions affecting their jobs. Never mind the little dose of flu that's going around at the moment.
You can bet your house the unions in the UK will be holding everybody to ransom once all the cutbacks and fallout from the virus become clear. You'll probably have to if they get their way.
The slightest bit of research effort would tell you it didn't originate in the US.
I noticed that.jfc
Once again:
Shout-out to the kettle.
I would argue it's employer related more than worker. If something is open, a self employed worker will try. We're seeing this on building sites today. I had a window cleaner around my house today!
I get your point, but that average national wage isn't even what some furlough employees are getting. Playing devil's advocate why would self employed workers (who some earn much less than that) recieve more? I'm confident they'll get a mechanism correct, it's just not a simple turn on the tap of X amount for all. I believe they'll get a similar support that employed workers have.
The last part is true. Whenever there's a bird flue outbreak somewhere (it happens times to times here in PT), the places where the infected persons are shut for a couple of weeks and the problem is usually solved.
This virus is managing to showing that doing even more extreme measure than just shutting the affcted spots is not remotely enough. Also think it took us time to detect the virus because an 80+ person with respiratory problems having a pneumonia is actually a very common thing to happen (thousands of cases every year), which also didn't help to detect this earlier.
So my brother returned to Shanghai a few day’s ago and is being held in a government hotel quarantined for 14 days. Upon arrival they are checking everyone’s temperature multiple times over a period of time. My brother showed no signs of a fever so he passed by doing the actual test.
So now he is locked in a hotel room for 14 days. This is for everyone entering China, it is impossible to skip this. Someone just got deported for trying to skip out before 14 days. Upon completion of quarantine people are given an Id number and a green card linked to their WeChat and phone numbers marking them as being cleared from quarantine. Cities will be starting to open up over the next weeks. To enter any building the green card and your id must be presented.
Not sure how it works for people already in China as he didn’t mention it. But I assume the must do something to also receive the green code.

Singapore is now doing this as well, most Asian countries will do the same as new cases are predominantly coming from USA/Western Europe.
Funny how the western govts didn't have the balls or cared enough to do it, when cases were flooding in from East Asia over here.
SAme problem everywhere. Most of people are habit creatures and will have a hard time to hear a no to something they do for ages and take as granted. Here in PT people still go to the beaches in remote locations, because the police is controlling the main ones. On Sunday 7 people were detained and will be in court after ignoring the state of emergency rules. If the police would follow the law, it would be 100 times more
Olympics cancelled and moved to 2021
Good point well made. Didn't think that one through.
The richest country in history of mankind eh?
For me the fact that he edited that word out makes it even funnier.
It's usually 4 or more cats though.
