Yep, agree, out of likes again. I think we can make some educated guesses but you are right, it's a bit of an unknown. The stats will be forgotten though mate as everyone gets on with their lives. The next disaster will come and everyone will be in panick stations again. I want to present a graph of global deaths after this and see if folks can identify when this pandemic hit the world. The way folks are carrying on I imagine it'll be obvious. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And all I do know is what I see, and what I see is people being told they will get no f***ing help of any description while at the same time being told help put an end to this thing, oh and by the way, a load of you will die (Boris’s words, not mine) Why don’t they give folks a break the greedy c**ts, tell them to forget the tax man and the council tax man and the mortgage for 3 months, give them enough to live on for a while......stop peddling this nonsense that everyone trying to do the right thing is a hysterical knob and actually help people. It ain’t like the government ain’t had their pound of flesh out of people in the past is it ! Or are the UK the only ones in the world getting it right and everyone else hasn’t got a clue ? Council tax and a mortgage/rent break is required if the government truly want people to self isolate... I'm.sure most people will be testing the mortgage companies over the next few months, as I cant see evictions during this period happening.. again you can have the conversations yourselves.... the government will try and keep.the wheels turning as best as they can...its how they roll!!

I've a horrible feeling this will keep trundling on, the full health and economic result could be more than we want to believe... unless the virus mutates again I dont think that alone will be the real killer or problem as such..its the speed and ease of transition that is scary, the strain on resource will be potentially immense... where is breaking point?? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
