  1. They won’t make it mandatory. It looks like this virus will only need 60-70% of the population to be immune to achieve herd immunity.
  2. I wasn’t volunteering, I was speaking on behalf of everyone lucky enough to still have an income. I’m not going to pay more just because tight arses like you are not man enough to chip in and help.
  3. We’re all going to pay for it, we’re just going to pay a bit more tax, no big deal.
  4. Some much for all in it together. The crying about tax is starting already.
  5. To be fair, you are not doing much to dispel the stereotype with your thousands of crazy rants about fish.
  6. He wasn't suspended for being anti-semitic, it was for claiming people overstated the problem for political gain.
  7. Sir Kier is handling this well again, needs to make an example of Corbyn, it's all about the optics. The more Corbyn's lot moan the better it makes Kier look.
  8. It is like watching a really slow motion car crash.
  9. Maybe, but I think they estimate that for this virus we will need between 60-70% of the population to be immune to achieve herd immunity, can’t see anti-Vaxers being as high as 30-40% but who knows.
  10. I don’t think that many people would be thick enough to refuse a vaccine, you don’t need 100% of the population to be vaccinated to stop it spreading.
  11. I don’t have a problem with anti-vaxers, being a fit man in his 40s I’m going to be way down the list of those who get a vaccine - more people opt out the quicker I will get one. Having said that I do support controls on social media, the way twitter has been dealing with Trump’s lies is about right.
  12. Fantastic signing, it's great seeing him back in a Saints shirt and I think we're the ideal club to get the best out of him at this stage in his career. I don't get the negativity, he already has two more assists than Redmond this season.
  13. Very moving stories, thanks for sharing. It's mental what that generation went through during the wars, ordinary people put into the most extraordinarily tough situations - god knows how today’s lot would cope if asked to do the same. You would like to think the World has learned it’s lessons and moved on from that era so we never have to find out. Both my Grandads served and survived WW2, one great uncle survived Dunkirk and later got a Blighty in France just after D Day. My Nan’s brother wasn’t so lucky and was shot down and killed on a bombing raid over Germany aged just 19 - he was an art student. This collection of first hand accounts by the BBC is worth looking at if you are interested in reading about WW2. http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/ww2peopleswar/categories/
  14. No you didn't you asked what's offensive about what he said?
  15. That article explains why some people find the word offensive, I'm not sure what more I can add. Do I need to draw something in crayons for you?
  16. Do you not know how to use Google? Here you go. If you need any help with the big words let me know. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/newsbeat-54888197
  17. He was representing his organisation at a Parliamentary Committee being specifically questioned on diversity - and you don't think he should have an understanding of what might offend people. You are like the SWF champion for the ignorant as fuck.
  18. This. What he said wasn't too bad but the point is, it is his job to know what's right and wrong.
  19. ..and he can barely remember what day of the week it is. Yet he still beat your hero.
  20. Yeah, if by 'instantly' he meant kill over 230,000 people and last over a year.
  21. The point in the lockdowns is not to stop everyone getting the virus or trying to wipe it out, they are purely to stop the NHS getting overwhelmed. Once the vulnerable are immune, or most of them immune, then hospital admissions shouldn't be at risk of getting too high. Obviously it won't be party time from day one but as more and more people get vaccinated, restrictions will lift and I think normality will return pretty quickly.
  22. Not sure it will be that long. You don't have to vaccinate everyone, once the vulnerable people get done we can just crack on as usual.
  23. Playing a blinder
