I wonder how many managers are working from home, I know my daughter is but that is mainly due to her needing to isolate and the hospital is still wanting her to stay at home to protect her. She has told me however that a lot of backroom staff are working from home.still to reduce infection rates.

Wouldn’t that make sense given that they are pen pushers and probably working from home like a lot of us? |

Looks like the government have worked out some new mortality figures:

People are quite easy to scare, generally. You just have to keep at it. Goebbels knew that, it has not been lost on our current rulers. “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”

It's also true that a lie has gone around the world before the truth has got his boots on.

Oh that is alright then, only 41k deaths, why are we even worrying about it.
Yes I get it that a fair few of these people would have died any way sooner or later but there are over 40k families all coming to terms that one or more of there loved ones are no longer with us because the Chinese cant cook there bats properly. That with the many people that are left with life changing problems, I was speaking to a customer to day who struggles to do a full days work since suffering with Covid a few months ago. Cronic tiredness and extreme fatigue and he is only 34 years old. I hope once this is all over if ever it is the Chinese are made to pay for this one way or another. |

I'm still not convinced the figures are correct. Russia 900k cases and only 15k deaths. Really.
Either our health service really is bad, some countries are still not being honest or the way the figures are compiled do not lend themselves to be compared between countries. And why 28 days? Something not right with all off this. |

I went for a couple of beers this evening with friends I've not seen in some time, no mask, no cards, no names no pack drill and the bartender couldn't break a £20 for a round of three drinks.............."sorry sir, do you have a fifty pence, we don't have enough change" Blooming incredible, a bar in a four star hotel, no change?????? If the artificially created recession isn't bad enough, then there were the one way systems on the floor in the bar to contend with, bear in mind this is the first time I've had a beer in a bar for months, and apart from the harridan calling last orders at about 10.30, the experience left me somewhat cold. At least I managed to repudiate the fistbump nonsense in favour of a real handshake... Ho hum |

You're not kidding Gary, the figures are being artificially massaged to make the threat appear much more sinister than it really is. Personally I've no desire to live out the remainder of my days in the shadow of covid19, I've better and far more serious things to worry about !!! Chris |

We are ruled by complete idiots. Mandated use of face masks for zoom meetings! https://www.kansascity.com/news/nati...244861827.html And conspiracy theory becomes fact, again!, Bill Gates and his "health fetish" vaccination and health records to be linked to biometric ID: https://greatgameindia.com/india-digital-health-card/ And some people still don't get it! Just adding this link for people to start seeing how great Bill Gates' influence is. BBC? paid! Guardian? Paid! and of course we know that Imperial college with N, Ferguson, one of the early drivers of this Marxist takeover is, well you guessed it, also paid! https://www.thelastamericanvagabond....ative-shaping/
