#260. while on the subject of honesty there should be some honesty regarding the Transition period. To say that it will be done within the next couple of months is totally unrealistic.
Much better to be honest and even say 'I don't know' rather than give the public what they want to hear to be later disappointed.
Doubters - just wait and see.


None of these posts on honesty belittle the difficulties. Just don't try and fool the masses. That will be short term.

Spoke to my daughter last night who recently returned from a years study in China. Deaths are muted to be 50x more than official figures (based on cremation casket usage). Wuhan crematorium certainly didn't hang about.

Starting the virus & covering up the numbers! China needs a complete overhaul if this is true?

I should have been at Aintree today, but will be having a little tickle on the virtual race which will be screened on ITV later with all profits going to the NHS.

Flexibility like if there's a thousand tons of spuds ready and no one to harvest them, then the fit, healthy and unemployed are given the opportunity for work experience.

[ignoble] 04/4/2020 08:51

Well said, Sir..

As always, redwood is spot on.If the UK had the flexibility, low beaurocracy, willings to work hard and pull together, sense of achieving something, flexibility in everything and adaption to needs, care for others, and all in all the general current positive attitude which gets big hospitals built in weeks, then the UK could become wealthy beyond belief after covid.

Trump-backed anti-malaria drug hydroxychloroquine is the most effective coronavirus treatment currently available, finds international poll of 6,000 doctors


•Majority of 6,200 doctors from 30 nations said malaria drug was most effective

•Doctors across Europe, the US and China have been given licence to prescribe

•But the UK is dragging its feet until clinical trials show it is safe and effective

•World Health Organization claims that no medicine can prevent or cure virus


The malaria drug hydroxychloroquine is the best coronavirus drug currently available, according to an international poll of thousands of doctors.

Of 6,200 physicians surveyed from 30 countries, the majority (37 per cent) said it was the 'most effective therapy' for the virus.

But the World Health Organization (WHO) claims that 'there is no evidence' that any medicine 'can prevent or cure the disease'.

With a spiralling crisis and no cure in sight, doctors in Europe, the US and China have been given licence to prescribe the promising drug to COVID-19 patients.


But the UK has prevented clinicians from dishing out hydroxychloroquine - a form of chloroquine - until clinical trials are completed.

Not much over Europe, but China and Japan seem to be getting back in numbers.

Funny times when you can if so minded trade a FTSE100 share as if it were an AIM penny share

Over 28% in 5 days trading , over 5% a day

Shows that things have gone wrong

Might get worse though

Probably will IMO till a vaccine is found whch might be 12 months away

How low the FTSE 100 then ?
