We were seriously losing until Churchill begged the USA for help. If they had refused then things would have turned out very differently.
Yes I know but we still put up a bloody good fight.

Police must be allowed to proactively target offenders without fear of being labelled racist'. This lesson was best illustrated when Police nationwide failed to robustly investigate the hundreds of young girls being groomed by gangs of men from largely Pakistani origin, for fear of being deemed racist and damaging community cohesion.

Covid-19 and being bald ?

I think you will find that its down to blood group type. Research was already done in France and China. The results showed that if you have blood group A or A+ then you are much more likely to get a bad reaction, need hospital / oxygen and possibly die.
What about the length of one's penis? ;)

I wonder how many people who were clapping the NHS are now out protesting and spreading the virus, leaving the now forgotten NHS to pick up the pieces. :?:

I was wondering how many of the people who were clapping the doctors and nurses will be swearing at them in A&E when the pubs open again :?:

I hope you're wrong that the protests will produce a second spike. But I fear you're absolutely right.
They think Covid-19 is all over. I don't think it is. Unless there is a vast pool of unseen immunity out there, as soon as you allow people to interract the virus will jump from host to host exactly in line with the adjusted R number.
So the irony is these lovely, caring people are potentially killing others.
And thats not a flippant remark, I see an increasing lack of adherence to social distancing, day by day. Its even being supported by the supermarkets that are ditching their restrictions as fast as possible.
Imperial College said there will be lockdowns and spikes until a vaccine is found or we have herd immunity.
I can't really understand what I'm seeing at the moment.

According to plenty of placards being held aloft, "Silence Is Violence", i.e. if you're not out there protesting the injustice then you are somehow complicit in the wrongdoing.

Just this month, the Bureau of Justice Statistics released its 2018 survey of criminal victimization. According to the study, there were 593,598 interracial violent victimizations (excluding homicide) between blacks and whites last year, including white-on-black and black-on-white attacks. Blacks committed 537,204 of those interracial felonies, or 90 percent, and whites committed 56,394 of them, or less than 10 percent.
You won't find anything like that in the mainstream news or see anyone protesting about it.

I certainly don't think it will be significant enough, on its own, to spark a second spike. I am certain that one of two scenarios is true: either it will spread and people will die as a result or social distancing is completely unnecessary and we've been wasting our time.

David Lammy on Question Time this week enthusiastically encouraged people to protest but advised them to social distance as well!!! What a flipping dickhead!

In my view, it's irresponsible to protest at this time, but the government has set an example, that your own personal judgement and instinct takes precedence over official guidance!

Totally agree Crazyskier but there are those who think what they see as 'stood upon minorities' should not be policed!

True, true, true and they were probably baying for DC's job a week or two ago because he 'broke the rules' … funny how they criticise others for breaking the rules they break! Still let Darwin prevail I say.

Well found Frank but all in vain, they never let a good fact get in the way of a bigoted protest.

There's a world of difference between doing what you felt was right for your family and protesting about a situation over 3,000 miles away in a country that you have no influence in! This is just the LL rent a mob jumping on a bandwagon for entertainment.

Agree, there is a world of difference. DC was lying about doing what's right for his family when he was really doing what he felt like, including a day out to Bernard Castle, and then had to lie about his reasons for doing that, whereas these idiots are genuine idiots who think they're doing the right thing and it's a cause they have to fight for.
