Was just about to post asking why we aren't seeing similar in other area's with a high Muslim population if that was the reason. Suppose you really need to see the figures per 100K of population to be able to compare.

Saw something on twitter the other day with accompanying pic saying the mosques were closed for social distancing but muslims were still meeting up to pray together. Of course its hard to know if that's true at all and if it is how widespread of an issue it is. There's as much chance of it...

@Nick, change the thread title to 2020! Wasn't expecting this. New series of Life on Mars in the works. Life on Mars Revival Plans: 'Think Avengers Assemble' Says Creator | Den of Geek Does say the BBC, or anyone else for that matter, hasn't commissioned it yet despite it being worked on and...

Not going to give them a click but sure it mentions how the comments are inconsistent with previous articles: Jay Bothroyd remembers Coventry City spell fondly

"When they turn this on its going to kill everyone" what an idiot. What do people that actually believe that to be the case think the endgame is here. Why are the phone companies all happily killing off their customers?

WTF, I was wondering how you'd made that look like a real Telegraph link. Can't believe that is actually a genuine article.

I think the point they are making is they aren't the only ones who are on large salaries but they seem to be the only ones being called out to take a cut.

How many MPs have taken a pay cut?

How many meetings did they have to come up with we'll postpone everything until this is over?!?

It's a minimum of three weeks so presumably they've been told nothing is happening anytime soon and the players won't need to be back in training this month.

Player have probably been sent home with instructions for training alone as they would be at the end of the season to keep their fitness up. Most of the office staff will have nothing to do, not like we can even push season tickets for next year as we didn't have them on sale anyway and don't...

You can tell the Mirror and the Telegraph have the same owners

Assume they would hope to offset lost ticket revenue by opening up ifollow to domestic viewers and / or extra tv payments to allow more games to be shown.

This is pretty much a perfect example of what the scheme was designed for. People who have no work to do. What does he think footballers are doing at the moment?

Fair enough. If there's no work to do then no need for them to be working. Also worth highlighting the club are paying the 20% the government isn't paying so all staff will get their full salary. Not sure furloughing is going to work out like the government expected. There's an article on the...

Trump certainly has questions to answer. Closing the White House pandemic office to save money isn't looking the smartest plan now. Also the Americans had an epidemiologist embedded in China’s disease control agency to ensure the information they got out of China was correct. That position was...

What test was he referring to? I've only heard mention of the diagnostic test, to see if you currently have it, and the antibody test, to see if you have had it at any point.

Not sure what EU freedom of movement has to do with a worldwide pandemic. In any case its not my job to come up with the solution, that's the role of government. I was simply pointing out that it is wrong to dismiss any failings of the government with 'no one could have predicted this' when it...

Probably one for BSB but don't grade boundaries usually get set after making has taken place to ensure you don't get a sudden change due to the test itself changing year to year? If so you'd assume they would just apply the same principle.
