Sad news once again. Let’s hope there is not a second spike, if there is, let’s call it the “Second Cumming” after that much loved aide to Boris, Dominic Cummings, isn’t he a lovely little man, not !!
The second spike will be here when the next flu comes round like it does every year
It’s to early to come out of lock down….they are only doing it for the economy ££££££££
Do some research about other countries, once you educate yourself with the truth, then you can stop running around shouting like we are all going to die!
Should of not had a lock down
Can’t believe that after all the evidence about this over blown virus, Sweden, now Finland ,opening schools weeks ago with no increase in infections, Japan and others. The down grading of the virus to flu status.Then the lies and sheer contempt from the liars( government) towards the British public! But some people still believe the narrative from the liars( government) ? How much more??
Lies it may be but i for one am enjoying the time off work, with this glorious weather i can see why a lot of people make the dole a lifestyle choice instead of working.
Lucky you having all the time off work we’re not all so lucky and could you really lead the same lifestyle on dole money? I know I couldn’t. And I like to know I’ve worked for everything I’ve got.
smithy, it is not ‘just’ dole money though is it. It is free rent and council tax, it is child allowance for each child. It is child and working tax credits if you can blag twenty hours work between you as a couple. As you then earn little you pay NO tax, but claim hundreds in the benefits mentioned.
Don’t believe all the media hype about getting only a few pounds ‘dole money’ it is all the EXTRAS which then make it up to a good income. They often work on the sly, deal drugs, and are eligible for free prescriptions, dental treatment, and many claim for disability too.
Check out how they live.
Isla Wight : Not working for a month or so with this nice weather is rather enjoyable I would imagine. To not work and ‘scrounge’ off the hard working tax payers who do work is disgusting. In my opinion these people have no self worth and don’t give a S**T
More lies more fake news
