3.4 Is mass murder allowed ? Yes, we've arranged for mass murder to take place on an impressive scale but you should maintain social distancing at all times.15 points

Sounds like the World Cup. Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland stay home and England ends up getting completely fucked later down the line.8 points

People need to stop repeating the lie that's there's just over 30 thousand dead. It's nearly twice that, over 55 thousand. Hospitals haven't struggled cause of cold blooded murder in care homes. A sickening fiasco that the goverment are going to get away with cause everyone is just going to keep repeating the party line.6 points

Herd immunity is a very stupid idea. Not having 80% of your population infected and a great proportion die is not a bad thing. Hardly anyone is going to be travelling anywhere, but the people who will be allowed are those from countries with no infection. Certainly no Brits will be welcome in any countries any time soon. You will basically be British beef during mad cow disease.5 points

When Henry VIII was funding various wars he nicked all the gold from wealthy churches and monasteries and melted down his own gold plates and dishes to turn into coins to pay for food for the army. Pretty sure he taxed the shit out of the working man too, like, but the point remains. I reckon people might be happier to go to work if all the rich cunts actually did their bit to put some funds into the economy in the meantime.5 points

Going back to work should involve strict protocol, guidance for employers to minimise risk and compulsory face masks. It should be done in a piecemeal fashion so that infections can be carefully monitored and new infections should all be contact traced to break the chain of transmission. Going on TV on a Sunday night and ordering the nation back to work with a notice period of one day is not how it should be done, and will cause thousands of preventable deaths.4 points

I'm surprised that the "null and void....there's more to life than football....think of people's safety" crowd haven't been their usual, vocal selves today by clamouring for a PPG solution now that null and void appears to be dead in the water. Surely they'd want the one of the two viable options which offered zero risk to player safety? Unless the real reason for their previous null and void requests was nothing to do with player safety at all and they had an ulterior motive? Hmmmmmmm.....3 points

Obviously I'm going to caveat this post with the fact I can't stand Johnson and his cabinet and think the handling of this has been shambolic in terms of messaging, throwing experts to the lions etc, but.... I can't help but feel a big part of where we are as a society, possibly a human race, with this is our growing need to solve complex problems with simple solutions. See Brexit, see Trump, see build a wall and get Brexit done. Bottom line is, the villain of the piece here is nature. A virus is causing all this mayhem and governments all around the world, advised by scientists, all of whom are human beings, are trying to deal with it - some more successfully than others. I keep hearing stuff like 'we should only go back to work when it's safe'. And you're like 'when will that be then?' 'I don't know.' So what do we do in the meantime then? 'Stay indoors'. And what happens to the economy/who funds the NHS, who pays furloughed workers if that happens? 'I don't know'. A vaccine might come or it might not. But the idea of, what, shutting the front door until it's all magically over is ironically something Trump would suggest if he was in any way non malevolent. Cases are gonna spring up (as they have in Seoul due to people clubbing), that's because it's a virus, that's how they do. One of the things the human race has always had to content with is, for want of a better term, the 'hard shit' factor of being alive. Wars happen - it's not nice but it's hard shit, disease happens, it's not nice but it's hard shit, asteroids happen, it's not nice but it's hard shit. The Owen Jones-style response to the above would be 'well you wouldn't like it if it was you/your nan'. No I wouldn't, but that's not the point. But then I don't like the idea of catching lung disease from pollution or the prospect of getting run over, mugged, stabbed or losing my job either. The debate seems in part to have been weaponised as a money vs people debate. There may be some element of truth to it, but it's also a practical one. I'm no Adam Smith, but I'm pretty sure a country can't survive for long if nobody is in work.3 points

Passed is a little softer for casual conversation. In the year after my Mum died I got sick of using the word "died" so fucking often and it always felt harsh in a conversation, as if it changed the tone ever so slightly. I don't "like" it, because it means you're referring to someone dying which is shite. But its a damn sight better then saying "died" a million times over and putting everyone you speak to about it on edge a little bit.3 points

Not a prank but I was at a recruitment day with other managers. One had been to a disciplinary for another manager as a note taker for the area manager. The fella was on a disciplinary for walking past a girl and flopping his knob on her shoulder. He didn't show up. It went quiet and I piped up with " political correctness has gone mad"3 points

They actually have all this on the walls of their stands. Also used to put it on the side of buses. They are just odd. Ancelotti has managed Milan, Juventus, Real Madrid, Chelsea and PSG. It's like Leonardo Di Caprio playing a paramedic in Coronation street now.3 points

All the enjoyment of winning the title at home after the wait might not be there. But the joy of the fume that's been brewing up for 2 months and knowing the waits over and that for the next season they will have to live with it is funny as fuck.2 points

The funniest instance of someone lacking common sense was when I was in town with my mate (clever lad) and he cut his finger, "I'm just nipping in that supercuts to get a plaster." It was a fucking hairdressers.2 points

Nah, the rest of it is shite. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/coronavirus-outbreak-faqs-what-you-can-and-cant-do/coronavirus-outbreak-faqs-what-you-can-and-cant-do I picked out the prime cuts, the gemstones, the high notes. Oh, thanks Bumcunt, that's lovely.2 points

Fella I sort of know but not directly played a blinder of one yesterday. He’s getting staff of minimum wage to go back into work in manual jobs during a deadly pandemic and telling them not to get the bus but to walk there instead. fucking hilarious fella he is, always got something like this up his sleeve. Great lad.2 points

Nah, you can kill off the virus if it doesn’t have anyone to infect. New Zealand are nearly there, some of the states in Australia are too, where they haven’t had any cases at all for two weeks. Greece is also going well, as are other countries. After that you need to track and trace and shutdown any detected outbreak. So that bit is the learning to live with it. The UK is fucked though, the virus was allowed to get everywhere, so it’s going to be nigh on impossible to manage.2 points

I've just found out that a workmate and fellow union rep has died today due to Covid 19. 32 years old, left a wife and 3 kids, the youngest turned 3 yesterday! He had underlying health conditions but I still can't believe it! Rest in peace Ali mate, I'll miss us ribbing each other about United and Liverpool!2 points

He's a dangerous evil cunt, this one. Pure evil. He's just given thousands of British people a death sentence, in addition to the tally racked up so far. His policies deliberately kill people. Stay alert.2 points

I never had a problem with Cantona tbh, there was always something about him that I liked. Wonderful player imo, greatly underrated2 points

Danny Rose has never given a fuck about football. He’s made it quite clear as something he only does as a job, so I can understand his stance. Unfortunately, in terms of how most people who play or watch football see it, he’s in a tiny minority.1 point

The GF has always been an echo chamber with regards politics, most of us by and large hate the slippery fuck, but I'd be interested to know what the people who voted for him think. Have they realised the error of their ways or are they doubling down on their man? I suspect the latter. Johnson is like Trump. He's a wolf in wolf's clothing. A known quantity, if you'd asked anyone a year ago how he'd have handled a theoretical situation like this they would have told you, same for trump. I think people who like them both like them for that very fact - they're agents of chaos, and those that vote for them get littler pleasure in life other than seeing 'libtards' cry. If it means that they too, suffer in the process, then so be it.1 point
