It's who we are, and who we'll always be unfortunately.

Blame China

What did I just say about accepting cruelty, as long as there is a bogeyman to blame?

Your post above 100% proves my point bang on. The crazy thing, is that you keep updating you bogeymen threads everyday without any self awareness.

Exactly, the folk devil has long been a devisive tool of social control, make people fear something as a threat to their family or job and they'll agree with any measures imposed to

We needed more Mc Cains, tories who understood the implications of this vote to rebel that would send a message as to how harsh this is.

It does, actually, because the most basic duty of a government is to protect it's citizens, not starve them unless local businesses and charities pick up the slack. The government today have awarded another PPE contract worth hundreds of millions, to a Miami fashion accessory designer.

So here's another example. The good law project had to take the issue to court, in order to force the government to collect Ł1.5 billion in VAT from Uber. These are the people the government are trying to protect, whist kids go hungry.

Oh hell no if anything he put kids off healthy eating in my opinion. We can’t let this generation suffer through the **** school meals he provided back in the 00’s. That ‘Pasta King’ ****e we got served back in school was foul.

If local communities come together like they used to then this can be covered and also build moral in the communities to come together to beat this virus..

A good decision and hopefully a wise one
