Newcastle United owner Mike Ashley has been criticised by fans after a number of supporters were charged for their next season ticket, despite the ongoing suspension to the Premier League.

 

 

Ashley really has no morale compass and yet again putting profit before people. How many of those people are out of work now? Self isolating with no income? Families living on savings?

 

HE IS LOATHSOME

Bloody hell fantastic quote! Nothing changes indeed. Hope you and the family are doing ok @Dame_Ann_Average 

Hi Roxan, I'm ok thanks, still no symptoms and youngest daughter has recovered from whatever it was...no testing so we're not sure is she's had it or another bug.I have another 5 days to go before I'm safe to go out, not that I'll be going out much ...

 

Your sister's partner is an idiot, take care Roxan

Why does our government lie continuously, I have never none politicians to just stand there and tell bare faced lies, maybe because the right wing press will not bring it to the public attention how corrupt they are. 

 

The EU confirmed the other day the UK refused the offer of masks, equipment and ventilators...why ffs why  Preston must know this because most twitter users did days ago. 

 

Rather amazingly, we are not in EU ventilator scheme because government didn’t get or didn’t see relevant emails.

Yes but to be fair. I wasn't just clapping for the NHS. I was clapping for all the supposed 'low skilled workers' that are keeping the country going right now as well

For all our problems in the UK, I'm really concerned about what's happening in the US. The WHO are warning that the States is likely to soon become the centre of the epidemic. 

 

I've been following the infection numbers in the US, and - even allowing for the controversies surrounding access to testing - they're doubling every 2-3 days. If that continues unchecked, the States will overtake both Italy and China by the weekend. The simple mathematics of exponential growth means that - in theory - it could be in the millions by the end of next week! 

 

Trump has no interest in, or understanding of, science at the best of times, and tends to be downright hostile when it appears to be against his own interests. It's therefore little wonder that those who really do understand the situation like Dr Fauci are being side-lined. 

Oh dear: it turns out I actually underestimated how long it would take the US to overtake Italy and China by several days...

 

I really, really hope something changes over there very quickly before my second prediction comes true too...

Although I HAVE heard a few references to 'RULES' most of what I read is still couched in terms of GUIDANCE and ADVICE, which overall gives a relaxed and optional feel to things instead of emphasing that theses are COMPULSARY instructions that MUST be adhered to.

 

Also the language used when Talking about the risk people face suggests it is the risk of CATCHING the virus that varies in these various population groups. whereas the risk of catching it is the same for everyone and it is the risk of severity of its EFFECT that varies!

Are you keeping an eye on "terrestrial" news, EFFT?

 

Both the BBC and C4 news foreshadowed and covered it yesterday: as with the PM's previous "broadcast to the nation", C4 extended their regular news programme to include it, and BBC1 ran a special broadcast.

I immediately wondered about his fiancée Carrie too, given that she's pregnant.

At the moment it doesn't seem to be clear if she's still at No, 10.

 

As for the Cabinet, I'm sure there will be a flurry of testing and self-isolation, but it would probably just be a continuation of recent concerns anyway, given that there have already been a few infected MPs.

 

As a general point, the news said as an aside that Westminster - that's the whole borough, not just the "Palace" - is a bit of a virus hotspot at the moment, even within the context of London, so it's perhaps unsurprising that quite a few MPs are becoming infected.

 

BTW: Johnson is still in charge (AFAIK) and working from home (and in his case, "home" just happens to be the centre of government anyway!  ), however if at some point he can't, it was announced earlier in the week that Dominic Raab will step in. Just let that sink in for a moment...

On Monday the press and Scottish Govt. were all going on about townies hitting the Highlands, camper vans etc. last weekend. That went down well with the Glencoe locals for one.  Don't do it was the official line before lockdown.

 

Charles tests positive and hits Balmoral with his entourage. Reconcile that.

People wonder why there is so much anger, the refusal to accept the EU offer for equipment and ventilators and this on top of that thhe contract given to a Tory donor that's never made ventilators before..the time he makes them and tests them, thousands are going to lose their lives 

 

Direct Access, a company based in Nantwich, and supplier to the NHS, contacted the health department early last week after acquiring an initial 5,000 ventilators. It followed up two days later with an additional offer of 50 million coronavirus testing kits, email went unanswered.

that's how I feel Velvet, I know errors are going to be made whoever was dealing with it...but this is unbelievable, many people are going to die because of these blunders...one after the other  Johnson and Cummings, not fit for purpose and certainly not fit to run the country when many, many thousands of lives hang in the balance 

Dame_Ann_Average

Absolutely appalling, several firms offered ventilators, yet the government went with Dyson that has to make one from scratch and go through testing before it's approved...and the Tories said Corbyn was a danger to the UK. Boris & Co are literally letting people die ..I am consumed with anger at the strategy or incompetence, call it what you will I call it 'herd immunity' 

 

U.K. Gov bluff called “we would now have supplied up to 15,000 ventilators with a further delivery of 10,000 within the next two weeks,” said Andy Faulkner, owner of Topland The EU says the U.K. was present at meetings when procurements discussed

I never thought I'd be wishing well Prince Charles and especially Boris Johnson,  but with this pandemic no one is safe. The government's blasé attitude of no action till action becomes an irresistible imperative has come home to roost for Boris.

 

I'm self-isolating and have COPD.  I've been notified by the NHS as highly at risk.  Tried to order groceries online, but ALL slots (home delivery and click and collect) are taken.  I've got lots of frozen stuff but virtually no fresh fruit and veg.

 

Even though I meet the NHS criteria I'm at the "less risk" end of the "high risk".  There's people far, far worse off than me.

Carnelian, they say frozen fruit and veg are still high in vitamins so, if you have room in your freezer and can get an online order from Iceland (they were saving their delivery slots for vulnerable people) that might be the way to go.

Johnson lying....true to form. Brussels have given evidence that it wasn't an admin error. He might just do a Cameron and run off. 

Doctors and nurses are getting ill at an alarming rate because they don't have adequate safety clothing...its an absolute disgrace. No PM has let their people down so badly .Here in Wales they were going to start testing on a large scale as this is THE KEY to controlling the virus successfully...and the firm that won the tender for it has just admitted that they can't deliver as they don't have the know how . so back to nothing again.

Like Amy, I have no words, or none I could put on an open forum 

 

Boris Johnson was briefed about Coronavirus in December 2019. His first Cobra meeting was on 2nd March 2020. No actions were taken for 3 months. They had the 2016 report that warned the NHS could not cope in an emergency like this, had they acted we could have been well prepared. How many lives would have been saved? Instead they buried the report and continued to cut the NHS....there is a special place in hell for some MP's.

And the way they are still talking is still giving the impression that once restrictions are lifted/relaxed it will mean that the danger will be over - it isn't, the virus is still there.

The thing is that because Trump's more fanatical supporters can't/won't acknowledge his inconsistencies, they can find themselves surprisingly out of step with him, and that's what's happening here. Trump now genuinely appears to be taking the epidemic seriously. I haven't been able to confirm it, but I heard a story that one of his friends who's younger and fitter than him caught coronavirus and is now in a coma, and that rather changed his perspective on things...

 

That said, he still can't resist playing games: he's now talking about saving a "million" Americans from the disease - a figure five times that of the worst-case scenario described by Dr Fauci. Critics are suggesting he's touting this figure so that when the final total of deaths is lower, he can claim the credit for keeping it down...

I think the 'saving millions' is to do with the apparent modelling that said that if the US did nothing then over a million would die. So now that he's ordered mitigation strategies the modelling says 100,000 to 200.000 he's patting himself on the back for 'saving' all those people, He forgets, or conveniently ignores, the fact that if people don't comply with said mitigation strategies then the 'modelling' figures will/could be hopelessly inaccurate.

You can only update in the 2 days before delivery and the cut off is 10pm the day before. And they only want you to update it once as far as I can see.
