It's the morning star and squawkbox against the world. Only the true critical thinkers know the score.

Lol! Such a massive groundswell of popular opinion. The people will no longer be ignored!

Cheers for backing up what I said

It's not that much of a coincidence is it seeing as he lives in Southampton which is where I live as well. Unlike soggy I don't make up encounters with people who agree with me, in fact I didn't have an opinion on ppe either way until he mentioned it.

Tbf I know someone very senior in all this and he is saying there is a real problem with too much ppe being used on people who don't need it. It's a difficult balance tbf

Not worth worrying about until its confirmed. Besides I haven't heard any reports thus far of someone dying after recovering and then testing positive again.

But that's literally the opposite of what people are saying they agree with.

But that's like saying that some parents abuse their children so that they can be amazing at the piano so we should ban learning music. There's loads of examples of people taking things to extremes it's not just religion.

I know little about what Jewish people believe. What I do know is that I attended a bat mitzvah at a rather Conservative synagogue last year for the daughter of my wife's work colleague. I'm never met a more friendly and welcoming group of people who had respect for each other and who were so community minded. No idea if it's the religious part that does that but I left with a very high opinion of whatever they were doing. Wonderful people.

God did he because he knew there would be a poibt in the future where MLG would ask inane questions on a forum and he wanted to waste your time. He's a clever entity.

Not a lot to talk about.

It's good news but would also be decent if they agreed a wage cut as well.

Excellent response from the club.

Yep. It's not an either or situation.

Just be honest sue. If Boris dies of the virus you're going to be one of the ones secretly happy about it. Probably not all that secretly to be honest, you'll most likely have a bottle or five to celebrate.

His conclusion isn't even true anyway. If we are working on the assumption that you will definitely get it, then the best time would be as much as possible in the future when they will have learnt more about the virus, dealt with the peak of infections so are well equipped and possibly have found some anti virals which are more effective at combating it. It's a bizarre conversation to have anyway, surely everyone should be taking reasonable steps as much as possible to avoid ever getting it.

Because you're working in the assumption that I would want to get it in the first place. I don't.

Tbh I think there should be a but if give and take from everyone involved. Yes it might be voluntary but most people I have spoken to recognise that it is not their employers fault and they are doing what they can to be accommodating under the circumstances- recognising that if they were to kick up a fuss or push for more money that the company doesn't have that there is a very real chance that everyone will lose their jobs.

I see that the point has gone over your head.

That's an odd thing to say. Clearly my preference is not to get it at all but if getting it is virtually inevitable as some are suggesting, then I'd rather not get it when the virus is at its peak.

Give it a rest mate you're boring.

Why have you quoted me?

Exactly. I fail to see why everyone wouldn't do what they could and take sensible actions to reduce their chance of catching it now. At least if I get it and do have a serious action I can say that I've done everything I feasibly could to prevent myself and my family from dying.

Indeed. I've been doing everything I can not to get it at the moment including wiping down packages that have come from outside. It may well be the case that everyone gets it eventually but I want to decrease my chances of getting it when it's at its peak because that reduces my chances of survival.

Worth noting the people on here and on social media generally writing stuff like this. Once this is over I'll be careful to block and avoid all of them.
