Contaminated by being responsible for Brexit.

If you lock someone up it’s more difficult for them to commit a crime.

Count yourself lucky. I was watching it in Spain. The Spanish commentators can talk twice as fast as her.

I rather suspect it will be more restrictive than it has been up til now. We shall see. Ah here we go, "Each time you log into the app you will have to go through the account verification process." and, "All tickets on the app will have a QR code activated 12 hours before kick-off. At St Mary's, you will be able to scan through the turnstiles using the app. The app does not need wi-fi or data ensuring all supporters can access." yet, "It is important to transfer, as screenshots will not work." What the f**k??? This will not end well.

We don’t yet know what restrictions there will be on others using your season ticket by transfer through the app. A phone is a phone though whoever is holding it.

Five great penalties to be fair.

What a shit camera angle for the penalties.

I've got a couple of spare phones. I think I might just install the app on one of them and lend my phone around

It all depends on who you consider success. Boring the opposition (and the world) to submission is not my idea of exciting football.

I hope to be watching it this evening. In Spain. I shall probably be supporting Spain.

No we wouldn’t. You cannot project today’s results onto a different voting system. With FPTP voters can afford a protest vote knowing that it will most probably not change the result.

We must all do our part to educate the uninformed.

I’d need more than that.

Ball watching

How's the chicken doing?

As a consequence? Nobody knows. But that’s the way it’s been since the world began. Poverty kills too.

People die all the time. The NHS does not and cannot stop most of them from dying. The NHS is not as wonderful as you seem to think.

It’s not me that’s scared. Look around you at the hospitality and entertainment sectors and look at the prices of those that are still around. Margins have to be rebuilt.

Sweden for one. Florida for part of one. I appreciate that these have different social environments.

Just because I post an opinion doesn’t mean that it refers to me personally. For a couple of spells I was the figurehead for local businesses and this gives me an empathy that is missing in a lot of others. Lockdown did nothing to save your associates, did it? Personally I lost my life savings and an inheritance through all this but I kept going as long as I could because I was putting my employees before myself. How is that selfish or self centred? Where have I ‘whined’? The hospitality and entertainment sectors have been devastated and will probably never recover.

I’m afraid that they are.

That’s a low base for comparison.

The picture is much broader than simply counting deaths in hospitals. Who’s ‘whining’ about their own circumstances? The economic damage is frightening and long-lasting. we shall be paying for it collectively for a long, long time. Some countries got it right. Or at least, more balanced. How's that for perspective? People die all the time.

The ‘Official Whitewash’, do you mean?
