Bobster check out Normanton in Derby that's where the karaoke party happened. It would probably be described in the travel brochures as vibrant & multicultural lol.

remember
Matron was IC with an Area Board
Labour created trusts with C Ex & Cfo and Fin Directors for each faculty. What did that cost the NHS - no proper integrated IT system - still reliant on footwear processing - one system to another.
An utter disgrace - blame the hierarchy
And now ppl = media want to blame GVT
Stevens own up and sort out the gross waste of the Bl/Br drain on the NHS.

Desperate to get a hair cut...anybody else?...

Many businesses will unfortunately go to the wall, so there will be
some large changes to come. However, eventhough we are experiencing a unique
set of circumstances currently, change always accelerates through each
recessionary cycle.

We looked overdue a recession, at least in terms of longevity of the last expansion.
What this virus has done, is rapidly accelerate the cycle roll over and likely severity
of a subsequent recession. However, yes normality will return and so ultimately will the next expansionary phase. It may just look a little different to what went before.

JL5 that's it. 5xy hit the nail on the head the Health officials are driving this atm its almost as though their advice has been accepted without challenge. Look at Sweden they have the confidence as a nation to take a route which contradicts the norm. If the officials are predicting this will continue until June or October we cant fkin afford it!! We need a more targeted approach....what might be right for London might not necessarily be a clever strategy for Derbyshire for instance. It might be that the country will be reliant on the outlying counties to take up the slack while London recovers.

Tricky
We have an hourly service - ave one passenger on board the bus.
Nobody is about in rural areas. Bus is the only way but guess that will be shut down - NHS surgery closed 10 days ago - pharmacy opens half day - there is only one - we are not dying by the cartload - here.

Agree but BJ had no choice - he listened to IC and DOH and their comments were impelling.
They may indeed be misfounded and wrong - but the PM is bound by guidance.
If Stevens is a prat and Willy without the no how then that is another matter.
Thegurdian will continue its onslaught - Hope Polly u in Tuscany in your villa - never to return!

Maybe they could have their own carriage
Don't know if it may help

Like the old days of No Smoking carriages and I remember Ladies Only compartments....

Bring back the Sierra...I mean the Ford Sierra...and Vauxhall Cavalier!...




'Modeo man' was a socio economic group. A man used to be proud of his 5 year old Mondeo.
Goodbye Mercedes and BMW for the masses, back to Mondeo man.

It was good whilst it lasted.

We have no idea what the number is because the testing has ended. I actually think the number of cases is far higher than 32,000 I calculated two weeks ago.

As Boris Johnson warns that things will get worse before they get better, Downing Street sources state that China faces a 'reckoning'.The country is likely to have to remain in lockdown until June followed by continued social distancing restrictions according to the Imperial College London epidemiologist Neil Ferguson. His predictions were echoed by Michael Gove speaking to Ridge on Sunday.As the UK heads into the second week of lockdown, and the death toll hits four figures, Ministers and senior Downing Street officials turned on China over the pandemic saying that they face a 'reckoning' over their handling of the outbreak and risk becoming a 'pariah state'.Big changes are going to be required over China's perceived misinformation, their attempts to exploit the crisis for economic gain and the appalling records on human and animal rights.The government may well need to re-examine the controversial decision to allow Huawei to build large parts of Britain's new 5G telecoms network. Defeat was only narrowly avoided in the Commons recently and those Tories on the fence at that time may well be rapidly climbing off.The Dutch government is also less than enamoured with China after having to recall hundreds of thousands of masks ordered from from the Communist state after they failed quality controls with tests showed they either didn't properly protect the face or had defective filters. The Irish government will be hoping that their €208m purchase of Personal Protective Equipment that is starting to arrive in Dublin from China today is not similarly affected. Post-Brexit talks with the EU will resume next week, with Michael Gove co-chairing the discussions via video conference. Draft legal texts were exchanged on the 18th March but talks were put on hold with both Michel Barnier and David Frost affected by coronavirus. Downing Street continue to state that the Government will not request any extension to the 31st December deadline, as the SNP call for talks to be delayed and transition extended.In the latest collaboration between industry and state, data allowance caps have been removed during the lockdown by all UK broadband firms after striking a deal with the government to ensure that everyone in Britain can access telecoms services during the Covid-19 crisis.New mobile and landline packages are also being launched, with digital secretary Oliver Dowden saying: "It's fantastic to see mobile and broadband providers pulling together to do their bit for the national effort by helping customers, particularly the most vulnerable, who may be struggling with bills at this difficult time... It is essential that people stay at home to protect the NHS and save lives. This package helps people to stay connected whilst they stay home."For the latest news and developments throughout the week, please do follow @GlobalVision_UK on Twitter and via our daily briefing.
