    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    The wealth of billionaires has increased massively during this pandemic, just as small businesses and normal have lost probably just as much collectively. Yet there is no mechanism in place to deal with this... this is why radical change is needed.

    Nah... he’s waiting for Starmer to come up with it before stealing it 😉

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Think you’ve misunderstood.... ‘lefties’ are congratulating the NHS on the outstanding roll out of the vaccine programme. They are also wondering how much better test, track and trace would have been if they’d been able to do that instead of spaffing billions up the wall at Serco. They are also...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    I’m not saying we should do that - but in the last 15 years have we had good foreign policy? Selling weapons to the Saudis for example.

    Running

    Finally got my running trainers back on - want to start back up with the football at beginning of April. I just feel utterly shit at it. Did 2.5 miles today but I feel like I make it so difficult for myself but don’t know why....

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Let’s be honest, it’s about time the West generally stopped fucking interfering elsewhere - which for some will be an unpopular position. The USA and the UK were the main protagonists in helping to create the power vacuum the saw the creation and rise of ISIS.

    I think we should offer them a groundshare when we finally find somewhere..

    Next 5 games

    We are capable of winning all 5. We belong in this league and have the players and manager to do so. Time to see if they can channel the quality and be decisive in games.

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    My biggest issue with his leadership at the moment is that I feel he doesn’t have the ideas for the radical approach that will be needed in a post Cov-ID world. I saw John McDonnell on Sky this morning talking about how UBI isn’t so much of a leap from where we’ve been with furlough. McDonnell...

    Recommend a beer

    Should be getting the latest Beer 52 in the next couple of days, usually some good ones in there... as long as they lay off the gooseberry and passion fruit infused beers!

    Old Arcade and PC Games

    I’ve played Super Mario Deluxe on the Switch and it just doesn’t have the same feel as something like Super Mario world on the SNES... it actually feels inferior.

    This was the first style RPG game I ever played on the Spectrum - got me hooked on the genre to this day. Spellbound.

    It’s funny isn’t it - my Mum is a staunch Tory and has the same relationship with the Daily Mail as a Jehovah Witness does with its literal interpretation of the Bible. Thinks the EU have never supported the UK despite her living in Cornwall and in a community that was dependent on EU grants to...

    Looking at Labour’s idea from this week of opposing a coroporation tax rise (which even Tory voters support) suggests they are not exactly reading the room either. Before we even get onto their hard on for nukes in post Cov-ID world. Well just end a future pandemic by dropping a bomb on it.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    2 issues I feel. 1. party membership demographic does not equal voting demographic especially for Labour 2. Post-industrial towns left to go into decline as they are ignored by the ‘south’ across successive governments, couple with a carefully constructed narrative that their woes are down to...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    it’s the same for the whole North... what they’ve managed to do is blame Labour for it.
