"Lies, damn lies and statistics." I love a stat but the quote has never been more true than now. I think the only guaranteed fact that we can agree on is that the USA has made a complete and utter bollocks of this situation. The rest of it, we'll have to wait and see. It will take years to...

Best of luck mate.

Hardly surprising with Patel chairing it. Difficult to imagine a less compassionate, responsible or intelligent politician. She ticks all the boxes of nasty.

I wouldn't touch her with a borrowed. The disgusting, rancid hag. Oh sorry, I meant I don't particularly like her. #benice

Tremendous.

Sounding a bit "Donald" there HT. "Millions, if not billions of trials...." [emoji23]

This can't be correct because Trump said that they are getting 500m masks ("300 meillion and then 200 more, this is probably, and tremendous...") in the next few days.

Yep. Can't argue with anything you've said and the article is (hopefully) an outlier case. Was just saying that it's certainly not exclusive to the US where actual death figures aren't being correctly reported. Because it's impossible at present.

It isn't. Based on the WSJ link that someone posted previously about Italy. There are thousands of deaths currently unaccounted for worldwide. And not just in a made up nonsense China/Putin way. Just because nobody knows yet. Not a criticism either. It's more important to try to save lives...

And where's Dr Legg? What a bunch of *****.

Nobody has any idea. I can't believe I'm being an apologist for politicians but seriously, the journos are asking questions that can't be answered, and (for a change) the politicians (and scientists) are saying "we don't know yet". So asking the same questions over and over again just makes...

Spot on. We've been shouting at the tv because of some of the nonsense questions from "journalists". Usually the Mail or The Sun, but pretty much all of them. It's actually refreshing that some politicians (Hancock, Starmer) are just telling people facts (as far as they know) instead of "well...

Well I'll stand by the fact that our health service is much better than the health service in Italy. Because it is. I don't support our current government and I don't agree that they have done the right thing through all this shitstorm. If you take a look at the "Self Employed getting 80%"...

Beat me to it!

Oh and "due to the nature of our reporting". Yeah because you can trust the Italian government and media to be reporting nothing but 100% FACTS, of course. It's not a competition. I was merely pointing out that Italy is a massively corrupt and dysfunctional country. Which it is.

I've been accused of being a lot of things in my life, but a "Little Englander"? Are you having a ****ing laugh!? Remind me not to take anything you post seriously from now on. :lolol::lol::laugh:

He already passes on any important questions to the experts and spouts incoherent gibberish about tents, so no change there. I for one hope he continues as it's one of the few bits of light relief on the news.

As aside, we were out of rice and haven't been able to find lentils anywhere. My Mrs is great at cooking a massive batch of really nice Indian/Spanish/Thai food that will feed us for weeks so I popped down the local Turkish (might be Irani, whatever) supermarket and they had EVERYTHING. Tins of...

Oh my. That photo as well.

Yes exactly. I can't see how anyone can work that one out.
