Did the government ever recover the millions ( billions?) thieved in all the fraudulent claims from last time ?

The aim is to crash the current financial system. You're gonna be chipped and your finances will be digital and controlled by the government.

It ain't rocket science.

we are already at 3 weeks? so I would expect averaging 50K infections a day for the last 3 weeks to see more admissions?

Thoughts please .. or any arguments we can use to try and calm her down

On the face of it THAT looks good but I’ll be happier if that’s the same in three weeks or so when the massive new wave has gone through its full cycle

You cannot counter-argue unsubstantiated claims

because they are unsubstantiated

The whole basis for their status is where they came from



"Its going to snow in Falkirk on Christmas day, 6 inches"

really who said so?


"The Met Office" - so if we find out it is the UKMO then we know it has a good chance of happening

or

"Dianne Abbot was on GMB and she said it"

then we know for sure its utter bollocks

can we all accept now that the infection rate has pretty much peaked and the hospitals are not being over run. Therefore there is no need for further restrictions
