When a British police commissioner publicly threatens to invade people’s homes at Christmas to break up “illegal”; family gatherings, you know that you have entered a new political landscape. At least, new for modern liberal democracies. That sort of edict would scarcely have been noticed in the totalitarian states of the old Soviet bloc, or in the distant darker periods of Western history. How in the name of God, have we got here? That such a statement could be uttered – as it was, for the record, by David Jamieson, West Midlands police and crime commissioner last week – let alone regarded as unsurprising, is an indication of some much larger phenomenon than a viral epidemic.

Police commisioner another from G Broon era - more money wasted - every aspect of Broon rule was a disaster yet M2 loves him yet cannot see the wood for the trees!

What a revelation - based on 49000. Is that the population of Florida - if so it is really meaningful. If not - I guess it is the gutter comment and meaningless!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bob and all others in Scotland wishing for independence can't appreciate what they've got unless he and others experience personally the other side of the coin.

Riveting Bob.

It would seem to me that all the respective gov's of blighty would want the same thing. ie, the bug to go away, a return to normal life.


Yet the so called devolved administrations are playing politics after electing crackpot leaders hell bent on their own agenda's.


You might get your wish yet bob. Then heaven help you, cos the €uro's wont.

Boris Johnson allegedly "hid in his bedroom" to avoid questions on Brexit days before he was set to become prime minister in July 2019.

Former Tory adviser Peter Cardwell claimed in his new book The Secret Life of Special Advisers that Johnson and his team ran upstairs to his bedroom to escape questions from Iain Duncan Smith (IDS).

One of TMZ's questions this weekend, is to ask readers which candidate they voted for.

With nearly 49,000 votes, it's running 68%/32% in favour of Biden.

No further comment.

I think it's got everything to do with defending a coast in both WWars. Generally speaking the east & south coasts are a bit more stoic & better organised than say Scotland & the West, which is replicated in the covid figures. Parallels can be drawn with the politics of these areas aswell

You've got a bit of a track record when it comes to separating the facts from the fiction havent you Roberto......looooool.

Firstly can I say that I am sorry that levels are so high in England I have family and lots of friends all over England.

The announcement tonight from Mr Johnston was supposed to go out on Monday, but I guess was leaked. Mr Johnston would have then taken it to parliament on Wednesday and IF approved would have been implemented on Thursday. Therefore actually 1 days notice for the people of England.

I welcome the extension of Furlough to protect jobs, however it should have been for a minimum of 6 months to protect industries that are affected by the turndown or restrictions. However there is no detail coming forth from CCHQ as to whether it only applies if a country goes into full lockdown or if it is held in case a country decides to go into lockdown. Hopefully the details will be forth coming very soon.

I hope the months lockdown measures work in England. We start the 5 levels on Monday and I truly hope this approach is successful as I want nothing more than this pandemic to be over.

Please remain safe and follow the rules in your area and with luck and good compliance we may go down a level or two.

Not me....get your facts right.

[bargainbob] 31/10/2020 21:24

Not really Bob, a more accurate comparison would be Andy Burnham....about the same population & roughly as productive. Get real.

The idea that R was the means to an end is just another myth.
I may be utterly stupid but if more ppl are tested and tricky trace find a few more and all these are recorded as positive then the identified cases will increase - but should most of those tested show little or no symptoms why shut down the country.
Secondly - why have C 19 stations been set up? Ppl with symptoms should self isolate. So who is going to get tested there and Y?
I sincerely believe the HOC serves no useful purpose - HOL just a liability.
600+ and not a jot of the necessary to enable management of this situation. Doesnt help when Kneel Stammer acts as the Director of CPS in the matter of anti Semitism. Guilty!

Jolyon Maugham QC - Good Law Project - will reveal the dealings contrary to the EU contracting regs - we are still in there - where tenders have to be requested not just given to s/one willy nilly.
Bit like appointing Dido harding as head of Trick and Trace - hardly the best candidate - failed boss of Talktalk.
Something stinks !!!

The two lady doctors at the start on the bbc said lockdowns are a waste of time all the government scientists kept saying was could ,Johnson offering more money to the masses to keep them quiet while this farce goes on my bet lockdown extended to january
