    I know your spelling is a meme but genuinely thought you’d got so excited you’d switched to German halfway through this post! :D

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    Got no ground? Who gives a fuck? We’re Coventry City and we’re going up! ACLs? Who gives a fuck? We’re Coventry City and we’re going up! Coronavirus? Who gives a fuck? We’re Coventry City and we’re going up!

    No that just stops people suing you, it’s still against the code of conduct to mislead the house. Convention for ministers is generally they resign. Not sure about Prime Ministers, or for that matter people who clearly couldn’t give a fuck about parliamentary convention.

    Unbeaten Run

    We were on for a record fewest defeats as well. I think the record is six in a season. No way were we going to lose three of the last ten.

    Really hoping this “leak” of austerity plans is another Cummings media play like the 60% furlough stuff.

    Im 81 and was originally Gen X, as Millenial originally meant “not 18 at the turn of the millennium”, then they changed it to 1980. I still class myself as Gen X cos it sounds cooler :D

    You’re robbing Peter to pay Paul though. We’re about to have TWO of the biggest recessions in our history back to back FGS! Taking money out of people’s pockets to meet some arbitrary timeline for paying back debt that’s cheaper to service than any point in history is downright insane.

    Right now isn’t the time for austerity, you’ll strangle the recovery. We should’ve learned that after 2008. Tax rises are fine eventually, if they’re engineered properly to claw back unearned wealth and excess. But raising VAT is regressive and will kill consumer spending.

    The government sets the playing field and the rules that people and businesses operate by. We don’t live by a code of honour we live by a rule of law. If it’s legal it’s OK ultimately.

    It says all settings but then doesn’t seem to include the 10k care home deaths they recently announced in the overall total. So maybe the daily figure is all settings and the total is still hospitals? Who knows at this point?

    Seemingly about 4 weeks behind Italy, which suggests its slowing at a slower rate as we were two weeks behind at one point. Looks like we could be 5-6 weeks away from opening up at best. Italy went into lockdown 2.5 weeks before us. So the great plan to avoid lockdown for economic gain will...

    This post makes literally no sense. Sorry. You want me to reply to you using a medium other than this forum? And look at the context of a right wing anti BBC meme? When my entire point is it’s you who is losing context as both sides of the political divide are making the same arguments which...

    Yeah as I said in my edit having read up a bit on him he seems just as Thatcherite as Javid. Just wishful thinking on my part I guess.

    Book Writing

    I’ve thought about writing a novel before. Can’t get past the initial idea stage though. One piece of advice I’ve seen a lot is to write for a given amount of time each day even if it’s crap. Just be disciplined. Worry about quality later on. It’s far easier to edit than to fill a blank page.
