    I totally agree with you that some (lots of) people are making things worse with their inconsiderate behaviour whilst shopping, but unfortunately for the rest of us we still have to get food somehow. And for what it’s worth we haven’t bought more of anything apart from (literally) 4 tins of soup...

    Think some of them are looking into schemes like this for those self-isolating etc.

    I understand the words you are saying, but they are different points. You can’t ask people not to buy food, you can ask people not to do unnecessary things. They are different, it isn’t that we are all missing your point - it is that your point makes no difference to the rights and wrongs of...

    People being pricks at the supermarket doesn’t alter the fact that we need food to survive and doesn’t justify going to the pub. It has nothing to do with it. I have and will go to the shops because I and my family need food, I won’t go to the pub because it would increase the chances of me...

    And if you could guarantee that was the case then fine. You a millionaire?

    So you go to the pub, pick up covid 19 (but that’s was your choice so fine), it will now be a few days before you get symptoms but you will still be contagious. You can pass it on to anyone you contact during that period. They didn’t go to the pub, they just happened to put their hand on...

    I can’t believe that people don’t get the difference between shopping to eat and going to the fucking pub. Yes, you can catch it in the supermarket, at work or picking your kids up from school (until next week). But these things are all necessary to some extent. By continuing going to crowded...

    And the people they infect before they realise they’re infected? Jesus, it’s not that hard to understand.

    What about if you’ve already got it but are asymptomatic and you infect 5 people in the pub?

    No, there was no way anyone could have foreseen the prospect of a global pandemic. We Were Warned

    Where to start. Lots of people have been predicting exactly this for years, so there’s that. Nobody is blaming him for the virus, it’s the response he’s in charge of and lots of people think he’s making a bit of a hash of it. It really is a political thing Dom, and not agreeing with the Prime...

    Ok, may have been drinking at time. Might have said things I didn’t literally mean. Apologies. Still think the NHS would be in a better place if differently funded but will refrain from calling people cunts in future ;) * until I’ve had a few later

    Truth hurt? If you think anyone gets actual pleasure out of watching this disaster unfold you’ve got a twisted brain. There is no way on this planet that the state of the NHS is not a political issue or that it is highly relevant to this discussion. If you don’t agree with that then you’re the...

    They will all ultimately fail if the pressure gets too much, but some will save more lives than others before they do. Our issue would appear to be that the system is already at breaking point before this even started, so it’s not going to take a lot. There is simply no capacity, it is already...
