i agree with you mate

but i dont feel so optomistic at the prospect the people pushing-back @#nationofzombies

However, that could be more about the area I live in...Norfolk and surrounded by old people(who should stay home) and airforce who are very obedient people and sticking to the rules like glue. In contrast, down south most my family and their neighbours stuck two fingers up at the house arrest weeks ago... the revolution wont be anywhere near us willsan Grin

an event like this is the authoritarians wet dream. the public are scared and, as a result of that, are willing to accept a level of government intrusion that they wouldnt under normal circumstances. problem is, once government takes on new powers it is often reticent to relinquish them even when the crisis that created the need for them is over. I just hope the british public is aware of this enough to push back on any overreach - the reaction to the overzealous policing we saw early on makes me hopeful that they will.

On a side note about policing, I overheard someone state that their child - who is in Essex police - has little to do, other than neighbourly disputes and Covid Crowds.

Does anyone else notice how quick the police seem to be to jump on easy meat cases - thinking about jumping to DEFCON 2 at the earliest opportunity in Covid, arresting people on Twitter for not using the right gender pronouns?

I understand there is a certain issue of man-bites-dog about these things: but, boy, having seen the amount of tribal tattoos, soapbox politics and chips-on-shoulders that accompany a lot of young police officers: I can't help but think that they're not making the entrance requirements any harder.

I went on to the base at Lakenheath to watch a powerlifting comp that my training partner travis was doing once. weird place - had a definite big brother/trueman show vibe about it.

what do we think of the new plan?

seems fairly solid to me and was pretty much what I was expecting.

The problem is the public. His plan is reasonable.

I work from home every Sunday.

I live just off the A120, near Braintree.

Over the last four weeks, I've counted the number of cars to pass the house, in one direction, between 16:00 and 17:00. Its been between 15 - 20.

Today, it was 85.

Everyone is raising the flag and going DMOB happy, before they actually know what they should be doing.

assuming you and they are fit and well and under 65, use your common sense I would have thought, but either way my breasts, my choice.

Stay Alert - Control The Virus - Save Lives - The English Government.

Stay at Home - Protest the NHS - Save Lives - The Scotland, Irish and Welsh Governments.

Great to see a united and together UK.

Local councillors, national, international governments are all the same it is about their powers and their own egos.
For crying out loud have one message for the UK and work together this is bigger than any one leader and any party.

Why cannot they all come together.

It has been a fire fight from the start and it will be a fire fight until the end.
Nothing but inept handling.

My policy would be simple for the new system.
Protect who needs to be protected.
Who is at risk and make this very clear and how to reduce the risk.

Changes to the current system :-
Premiership footballers and TV persons on the living wage.
All celebrity on the living wage or do a proper job and
contribute to society.
Remove the cameras and stop filming from Love Island but do not tell them.
BBC scrap it completely or pay for view, the licence is now scrapped.
NHS nurses and healthcare workers paid a decent wage, a scale below a doctor.
All stupid boob jobs, face lifts and other stupid operations by the NHS are no longer available on the NHS.
You must earn respect.
Ban Amazon and the like.
Bring back National service.
Stop knife crime by capital punishment for all offenders.
Buy local and support your community.
You must own a barbell for tax relief.
You cannot wear gloves in the gym or if you do you will face a large fine.

Other policy will follow in due course.

the bigger sites...(not persimmon rough as fxxk) are health and safety crazy.

basically, we will be operating at 26% capacity to ensure social distancing...but there is another site in Cambridge as a second option.

but they are working through mad amounts of paperwork and risk assessments...and we have to be re-inducted. i have been told that it could be this week- June before subbies are back.Ground workers are first in, I guess we would be second then scafs, chippies and roofers and then internal workers.

Im just lucky that we are working on houses that have already been sold as social...might be alright until xmass but who knows? one things for sure, we wont be spending a penny more as a family than we have to, for the foreseeable future.

see you all in the wastelands...
