Well I don't know about that as they can't control who is exposed can they? Royals and the PM... if the plebs are affected fair play but when the 'ruling classes' are as vulnerable then it's got to be dealt with.

I have at times wondered if all of the 50+ year old male politicians would be as bothered if most of the deaths weren't 50+ year old males. If it was a virus that mainly killed women and children they'd be like "Oh sad, keep calm and carry on".

Yep the likes of those who were ignoring the advice early on In Spain in the bars, the absolute twunt drivers who would come in work coughing and sneezing and get all offended when I told them to eff off away from me with their germs!...grrr!

Those same drivers who thought it was such a load of rollocks a couple of weeks ago are now wearing gloves and refusing to come in the gatehouse!! Lol they can be educated

Yeah, politicians. Monsters, aren't they. No one in Parliament gives a flying **** about anyone else and they have no hearts at all.

They haven't been bothered about casually signing off on policies that have destroyed (and ended) lives in the past, so why now? Because you can't hide from a virus behind money, is why. In my humble opinion, of course of course.

have a swedish friend on discord (also there the whole coronacrisis is being discussed)


he said most people who live in bigger cities like Stockholm, still also going on holiday despite warnings not to due to the risk of being infected with the virus

They said on the radio earlier that Sweden has a much lower population, more spread out and many more people who live alone.

A picture taken on April 1, 2020 shows people on Queens street in Stockholm, amid the novel coronavirus pandemic.

Yeah I think that will be a big factor in how it spreads, and shows that it is difficult to make direct comparisons between countries.

Their death rate is still relatively low, but also they're still quite early in the "cycle" compared to other countries.
