    For practical subjects like yours I totally agree, this arrangement is crap and you’ve been given no proper support from exam boards, Ofqual or other organisations that should be working overtime to find a way to mitigate for this. I’m sorry I can’t agree about the mass immunity notion. We do...

    He won’t though - because he knows and you probably deep down know that they aren’t safe in terms of stopping the spread of the virus (not the effect of the virus itself). We’ve got cases soaring and would be a lot higher if there were sufficient testing facilities, and this is with these kind...

    Doesn’t need to go that far - he can just find a motorway flyover on the Kent border.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I do think there is a valid argument that any PM should be paid more than £150K. Fuck him still though, it’s not like he even pays for all his kids.

    I think we can come away with 3 points. I hope McCallum doesn’t displace Giles at this moment in time, he deserves to keep that spot.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    He did some other stuff before Coldwar Steve - Guerilla LeVell and Suez Tosh (and one more that I can’t remember the name for the life of me) but he’s taken it all down.

    I don’t know why he didn’t resist the push to a 2nd ref stance more. He and his advisers must have known that it was electoral suicide in the Northern constituencies.

    It’s not that dumb. He has no discernible strategy to deal with this crisis, his chief adviser leaks everything in the press to gauge public reaction before implementation any proposals or actions, making out that he’s empowering the common man in involving them in decision making. Can you see...

    And there will be people that have similar difficulties across society, but if those that can do wear them - it will then protect you too.

    I think it’s an entitlement embedded into the psyche of some people. They see masks as a restriction of their human rights, rather than it being their civic responsibility to look after your fellow countryman.

    It is their fault no doubt, Corbyn was weak in not sticking to what he probably believed in personally. But Starmer was one of the chief architects of said policy, and ironically it was people like Corbyn and Abbott that were wary of it. Some people have short memories no doubt, but Starmer is...

    The Tories were on the wane after 2017 (their polling drop 7-8% from the 2017GE) until some idiots in the Labour Party thought it was a good idea to go against the democratic will of the people.... we got our arses handed to us on a plate, whilst simultaneously giving the Tories a free re-boot...
