Sounds like some of the people on this forum.

You being the biggest crank on the forum, then you'd know I guess.

I think the following quote just about sums up the philosophy  of this man





The most dangerous man in the world

He's a philosopher who eats no meat or dairy and thinks we're no better than animals. In fact, he thinks a chimp has more right to exist than a person, and that killing babies can be justified. He is hated and feared for daring to challenge the sanctity of human life, Kevin Toolis on the controversial philosophy of Peter Singer.

So's Capt Tom Moore, 99. He's raised £15m for the NHS from his garden...

So what? (seriously.) That was/is totally unique. Care to try and do the same yourself before having a pop at me. (Yet again.)

I am "under lockdown" in my for at least 12 weeks, due to age and pre-existing conditions, (basically it will be until  an innoculation is available) and also I live  long way from Bodmin.

Dealing with the virus successfully depends on some very dedicated people developing a vaccine. The government is lumbering slowly from cock-up to cock-up. (Still shortages of PPE.)

I would term that herd stupidity.

Really, do you watch the daily briefing?

I do. And watch, listen, read and talk to other people. While I find the daily No10 conference useful in affirming relevant messages and passing on latest info, it's less so in the the virtual press conference part with half a dozen popular journalists trying to score points while covering the same ground day after day.

Meanwhile Boris's approval rating soars...

 I sense a general feeling of confidence in the government.

Really, do you watch the daily briefing?

You complained I had not posted any Scottish specific data.

Where? Link please?



For the hard of remembering like yourself  , you jumped into a reply i made specifically to john of gwent ( not you)..

look after yerself john. FFS what a right bunch we all are , the walking dead.

With the insinuation after reading johns post i hoped he was allright on a personal level , totally non political , and your reply to me ...

Given the news on the BBC at the moment about the latest ONS death figures which include non hospital deaths and Covid-19 you could be right:-

To which i  said...

Pappy those are all england / england and wales only articles.

Meaning not only was i not talking to you , but your reply is irrelevant to me as they are england (and wales) only articles in the main.



Where was i complaining you werent posting any scottish specific data? You arent posting any uk wide specific data either?



You simply troll threads most days on this forum , as you did on the old forum , taking absolute shite and complaining when people either dont talk to you or dont agree with you , in between posting links that for the most part are either irrelevant or no one gives a feck about but you.
