Coronavirus - hype or pandemlc?

[kiwikrasher]

Why? They went with the information they had at the time, same as anyone else does.
Hindsight is always 20/20, etc.

I really hope you are saying this just to stir the pot like I’ve learnt you like to do regularly, because if you truly believe this, that level of ignorance is astounding.

Thanks for your support.
In related news, Orange County is now re-opened, mask-free, has resumed normal service, etc.
Whatever you want to call it, I suppose.

On the instructions from the trump.??

Meanwhile, it would seem that those who make their living from predicating outcomes think...: https://www.wsj.com/articles/global-sto ... 1591853228" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I think on the instructions or order of Governor Newsom...??
TBH, I'm not 100 percent sure, but he's the one who would normally be in charge of that kind of decision. I guess...

What Happened To Matt Hancock's Coronavirus Contact-Tracing App?

Yet another government feck up and waste of (a lot) of money. If only they'd not been so greedy and used the Google/Apple app we could have been protected a lot earlier.

All that money has gone into a company part owned by the wife of a Tory MP from what i have read.

An apt title.

Once the Daily Mail wants a Tory leaders blood, he is dead meat. The sooner he goes the better for all.


Edit: And the Telegraph as well it seems.

Bit of photoshop but nevertheless, not far from the truth.

JLR to cut 1,100 jobs

JLR to cut 1,100 jobs

Not really. That's 1,100 agency staff they wont be using next month. Whivch is all part of the problem when companies can have no responsibility to the staff who build their cars.

Our neighbour has just got rid of his Jag XF, it was shit , always being repaired ...and he had always wanted one. Huge corners being cut at the nearest factory to us.

I've said all along Jaguars should be a sports car or a luxry saloon, nothing else.

Neighbours got an F Pace SVR and it sounds aweome and goes like stink

What Boris Johnson Could Spend £900,000 On Instead Of Painting His Plane

Can it be painted with lead paint? Or even just lead.

[D41]

How long since it was last painted??
Don't planes get repainted fairly often anyway??

Depending on the service schedule of the specific type. They generally get stripped not because the paint is degrading but at their deep level maintenance schedule so structural inspections can be completed. From the way I read the article it is at a planned repaint timeframe.

But... a normal paint does not cost £900,000 and the livery intended is imo Boris just grandstanding and vanity induced self importance.

On a trip to South America as foreign secretary two years ago, Johnson said the Voyager, then Theresa May’s plane, was not available to him often enough – and complained about its dull colour scheme.

It’s first and foremost a military aircraft and its primary role requires the “dull grey” scheme.

Even if there was a valid argument for a pompous livery, now is definitely an insensitive time to do it.

So the app that was key to keeping the virus under control will now not be ready until the winter.

There won't be much of the UK left soon if the Tories do not dump Boris and his cronies.

Absolute bunch of arse wipes.
