I love things being explained to me by a disciple of, er, The Canary, Novaro, Sqwarkbox and Angry Voice Guy. Have fun in your lickle bubble.

Another crank website. Bless you x x x.

Boris did say "drive as far as you want" for exercise in the House of Commons earlier. Which feels mental at this point. Weekend will be interesting.

You decided to cut out from my post the line where I say that no Wacky Warehouse is going to be open so I am not sure who or what this post is supposed to be for or about. Maybe you could try to butcher this post to make some other counterpoint to something else I haven't said in the first place. Have fun if it makes you happy.

School 5 days a week, 7 weeks from June to nominal end of term = 35 school days, 6 hours a day, 210 hours active contact with other children (let's be conservative and say 60 other children/adultsacross those 210 hours. The adults/children will change a little each day. Wacky Warehouse absolutely no chance of being open during the same time, but in the spirit of the argument, let's say a birthday party but with social distancing applied as well as a school can: 2 hours (1%) 12 children (let's say 90% of them being school friends from the same school), so maybe 2 new children they haven't already been exposed to for hours already. So the party is 2 new children across 2 hours vs 210 hours with 60+ children and adults repeatedly. But you think not doing the Wacky Warehouse is your cure-all contribution. Anyway, no one is putting on a bloody birthday party for a long time so fairly irrelevant. But, Much like the hairdresser/football thing you seem to think the disease only spreads through activity you disapprove of. And repeatedly missing the big picture that once you've decided to do one massive thing (open hairdressers, open schools) the compound impact of doing other, smaller things is jack sh it. Maybe try and learn a little bit of incredibly basic epidemiology.

I don't think he was very clear about whether or not we are still allowed to do the conga round the estate with all of our neighbours, or if that was just a VE day-only thing.

It's the only way they will learn.

This is exactly what is expected.

Well, there were lots of things that could have been considered - a threshold, a regional electoral college, a different question. Who knows. At the end of the day you need to win the election or referendum you've been dealt, and Remain lost. Your hero is a lifelong leaver and got the result everyone knows he wanted so not sure what your point is a why you're addressing it to me. Also not relevant in a Trump thread.
-
Yes, sounds fair and fine to me - as I said I am no expert. However, Clinton still had to win the election that she was actually in, not the "yeah-but-no the system" one we can all discuss after the fact. But she didn't win, because she couldn't win states that Democrats typically win if they want the White House.
-
The one who gets the most electoral college votes, I'm afraid. There are states that Clinton should have walked but Trump took. Like Corbyn piling up vanity votes in North London, the absolute vote count is not (and should not) be the only determining factor. There's always a need to balance the votes of less populated areas. I'm no fan if FPTP and I am no expert on the US system but if Clinton couldn't win Michigan then she didn't deserve to win the Presidency - stacking up votes in California and NY just irrelevant.

I do agree that the Premier League really need to drop their demands that the final matches of the season are played in the courtyards of retirement homes. Despicable.
-
And? That's the whole point of the government's strategy - it's highly infectious so once it goes into a household, everyone in that household is very vulnerable. Do you think Dr Harries was suggesting everyone should pile on a train or a bus to get away from their disease ridden homes?
-
I think it is reasonable to assume that some shortcuts will be taken.

I think it's great that at today's press conference the journalists have stopped demanding to hear details of the easing of restrictions ("why are you treating the British public like children") to complaining that the British people are now confused because some details of the easing of restrictions has been revealed ("why have you hinted at that at the beginning of the sunny bank holiday weekend"?) Sheesh.

I can't remember the content. However, Nikki Kanani the Director of Primary Care for NHS England was great.

Press conference absolutely exceptional today.

All we ask for is to be entertained, win or lose. -
All clubs don't need to agree in fairness. The Premier League works on a defined majority voting system - can't remember exactly but it'll be 14 or 16 clubs that need to agree for it to carry.

Crash, bang, wallop. I've heard he's interested. Back of the net. -

Once the estate agents get involved putting ideas in their heads it's difficult for arable land like that to remain focused. -

I find it difficult to believe that the club would have let one of the most prized chunks of real estate in the northern hemisphere slip through their fingers. -
