Starmer donning BoJo senseless as per usual. Glorious.

I've been coughing all day. Gonna have to get a test sent out. Fuck sake.
Just remember, Spikey, that if you have a test this is all your fault but it's also your fault if you don't have a test.
You cunt.
I heard anecdotally the other day that if you test positive for corona (or corona antibodies) you basically become absolute cancer to private health insurance people (no interest of mine really - something to do with unknown long term consequences) but the person who told me this was fairly adamant you shouldn't have an antibody test if you ever want (or need) medical insurance.
What sort of a cunt feels he needs a test unless he's in hospital and treatment is diagnosis dependant? Cunts like you are why I can't have Svetlana rubbing her clit in my face at 5am at Euston.
My daughter is about to start school, I don't really have a choice. I'm fully aware it will just be a cold though.
Why tf have you got a daughter when your immune system is so shit, you cunt? Idiocy like that is why we have low-hanging fruit ("LHF") in the first place.
That cunt needed an interpreter.
Can you even imagine the sort of busybody, jobsworth tosspot who wants to be a covid marshal?
Magic's just doing it to get an extra 10 minutes with the bairn.
Nonce Nation.
Surely it'll just be those rent-a-cop PCSOs in slightly different hi-vis jackets?
How does a curfew remotely help? It’ll just push more people into pubs, restaurants and each other’s houses before 10. And in the case of the latter, keeping them there afterwards.
The response to this is getting quite tragic now, not helped by the fact that it’s become clearly apparent that far too many people are innumerate, let alone able to understand the context of the numbers they’re looking at.

It's the gift that keeps on giving. Do you reckon we could have made a bigger mess of all this if we tried?
How the fuck are they going to manage that when they don't even have enough tests as it is?
Not really, no.
Governments lack of ability to plan/need for credit is why we're fucked.
There are two options 'massive rush job that wont hit it's goals but will cost twice as much' or 'kick the can down the road to the next arsehole'
I don’t really understand what’s wrong with ‘monitor the situation and react by shutting shit down accordingly when needed’.
Absolutely no chance we’re going to be able to test everyone often enough to achieve the same end result.
What is the mortality rate at the moment? 8 people died of it today for fuck sake.
Hospital patients are up by about a 150 on last week.
I heard some gash on a Zoom call on the news say we're tracking France by 4 weeks closely. She was hideous too so I'd value her insight.
So don't expect any scenes in the death count for the next month at least.
This is France's new case and death count in the last week. What are you expecting?
September 9
8,577 new cases and 30 new deaths in France
September 8
6,544 new cases and 38 new deaths in France
September 7
4,203 new cases and 25 new deaths in France
September 6
7,071 new cases and 3 new deaths in France
September 5
8,550 new cases and 12 new deaths in France
September 4
8,975 new cases in France.
September 3
7,157 new cases in France
My current hypothesis is Spain's death count may continue to pick up, France will follow them and we'll follow. You got those same day's figures for Spain?
Spain's recent cases and deaths figures. (Not sure why it misses out some days in the middle). It's a bit up and down. Some high 'ups' though.
September 9
8,866 new cases and 34 new deaths in Spain.
September 8
8,964 new cases and 78 new deaths in Spain.
September 7
2,440 new cases and 32 new deaths in Spain.
September 4
4,503 new cases and 184 new deaths in Spain.
September 3
3,607 new cases and 40 new deaths in Spain.
September 2
3,663 new cases and 42 new deaths in Spain.
September 1
2,731 new cases and 58 new deaths in Spain.
They've sent my test to Bristol by accident.
Sunderland and Gateshead tearing up the charts.

No one fucking has it for fuck's sake.
At first, the local test and trace team (that I managed to avoid being part of, by being too necessary in my actual role) was only for local outbreaks, rather than individuals. Because the National test and trace team(?) are so useless, apparently the local team has taken over informing individual people and then getting hold of all the other individuals they were with. Soooo glad I dodged that bullet, but if it keeps going South, I might get roped in.
I'm a twit
I knew I shouldn't have shagged you mother in law.
A small independent restaurant here got a proper rave DJ to do a set whilst everyone had to be seated at all times during the event. Pills were popped and scenes were had for the 50 or so capacity.
An attendee tested positive and informed the restaurant. The restaurant sat on it. A further attendee heard rumours and asked the restaurant. The restaurant confirmed and asked them to stay quiet.
Fucking morons.
I see the UK has introduced yet another way-too-late/not entirely clear policy. I can only wish others were following Europe's fantastic example in dealing with this.
I'm off to the footy on Wednesday, along with about 6,000 other folk.
Actually how does this rule of 6 actually work, and who does it apply to? Presumably most offices are more than 6 people? I saw Doncaster played a match last week with 2,000 fans? Football clubs seem to be operating pretty normally with groups of 50-60 people. Presumably it doesn't apply to schools or teachers? Seems like a bit of a clusterfuck.
95% of situations where 6 or more people might encounter each other appear to be exempt, so I think it's just to stop 'certain groups' from meeting up, and even they might be exempted.
It doesn't apply to anything that involves economic, educational or physical activity. Only social.
Meet up with as many people as you want, just all pay each other minimum wage.
Weve not been able to socialise in groups of more than 6 at all, the difference now is they can dish out fines for anyone in bigger groups.
For anyone who was following the rules it doesnt make any difference.
One of my colleagues has just rocked up to the office with a temperature and a cough. The boss just lolled him back out the door. What sort of idiot do you have to be?
