I know someone pinged too, but they are a local Conservative activist, so maybe more likely to use the app and less likely to tell me if it farks up!

Cycling and brexit both cross party lines and it's rural Norfolk so there's probably almost always one within a shoe's throw!You know a local Conservative Activist, @mjr, and, you are willing to admit it, I am shocked

Which is back to a selfish individual being the cause of the outbreak. Too many of those have resulted in far too many deaths. And will continue to do so.
Taking overall figure to 90,000Reported death toll today very sobering....over 1600
The fall out from this just becomes ever more horrific and to think it need never to have got to this.

The US is now at over 408,000 deaths total. That reresents about twice the number of deaths than the next country, Brazil. Insane that Trump isn't in jail simply for his failure to lead the world's weatlhiest country in managing the pandemic. Why in God's name would we even consider giving him a military sendoff? For a piece of garbage like that? Sure, we can give him a military sendoff, as the military presides over his execution. Obviously won't happen but there is a lot of rationale to suggest that is what he deserves.

In mid-December, once case numbers looked out of control, opinion polls said most Brits did not want the insane Christmas bubble plan any more! Example
