Is this something different to what was mentioned the other day? Because that 'new' bit kit to me seemed to be a snoring aid called a CPAP machine that've been around for a little while. Or has it been modified in some way?

What makes it doubly galling is not necessarily the failure to close the borders but those arriving were either not tested or not forced into immediate isolation/quarantine, especially from badly hit areas like NY. Makes a mockery of telling the public to follow guidelines to prevent infection...

I think Will will be getting rather irked before too long.

Fair enough. Sometimes difficult to know if someone is talking raw numbers or not.

I think you also need to qualify it in terms of ICU beds/ventilators per head of population rather than raw numbers (but even then we still have a massive shortage in comparison)

The comparisons will be done on the stuff like statistics on cases/deaths/rate of infections etc. There are many reasons why those will differ. Some will be beyond the control of a government, like those I pointed out. Some of them will have been within control of government like failure to be...

That's what we were told. Until all of a sudden everything was fine and austerity was over. Done. Then in an inordinately short period of time we've managed to find a magic money tree to fund all sort of stuff for Johnson and seemingly sprouted a small wood in a few weeks after the budget to...

Indeed we will but each country is made up differently. Different age distributions, different populations and population densities, different cultural habits/underlying health of the population. Pollutant levels may also be a factor given it's a respiratory disease. Potentially even the climate...

Impossible to say. But chances are they would be looking to give the NHS and other services what they need more than the Tories. Biggest fear would be the health workers union as well as others using it as a massive bargaining chip later on when the crisis is over and causing problems. Although...

It's too early to see how our measures will stack up against other countries and even then they will be difficult to compare due to differing population densities, cultural differences in lifestyle etc. There are questions to be answered. The communication was poor and not assertive enough. The...

Although this isn't the time for it it does seem like Johnson/Tories once again lucked out having the election just before this blew up in their face because they've got five years for this to be done and people to forget about it before they have to be answerable for it. Had we got an election...

We sang that against Bradford. Last PL game. 0-0. Absolute shitefest.

I think we'll unfortunately continue to see an upward trend for a while because we've got new cases coming in but the old ones are still ongoing (there's very few 'cured' cases in the stats although I'm sure many have been moved from ICU onto general wards etc to recuperate once out of danger)...

Players who were fond of a jar or three: Noel Whelan Kevin Thornton Kenny Sansom

Don't know the wife's name or how well endowed she was.

Maybe we need a cut off as to what is 'exceptionally' tall - shall we say 6'3''/6'4''?

Just looked him up. Born Glenrothes, Scotland. He was brought up in Yorkshire though which would explain the accent.

We all know he's a bumbling idiot.

Has anyone considered he was being responsible? He was social distancing and the only place in the car two metres away from him was the boot....

Only to those who don't understand what it takes to play them well.
