    After two days of a decrease in deaths Italy has a sharp rise in cases and deaths. They are really really struggling with it, it seems.

    we are currently operating on a similar lockdown they had at first and don’t seem to be taking it seriously. I hope to god we don’t end up in their position. 700 dead in a day. Shocking

    Haha I'm that way out at the moment, I've had my tools nicked, my mums been in hospital for weeks and then I see on twitter police dispersing retards having a barbecue. Shame the virus can't wipe a few of the brain dead off the food chain.

    Are you really that gullible to believe the death figures given out by certain countries.. oh bugger it... actually China?
    I'd hazard a guess that they've had close on your figure alone never mind the 3,277 they claim.

    I'm sure the Army will still have some water cannon in storage.

    The cover up by China is why the world is in this mess. They need to be held accountable.

    As far as I'm aware that's another thing the police or anyone else can use, the subject was brought up during the London riots, maybe if the morons don't take heed we have to draft a few emergency laws to allow such as water cannons, and stop giving into the PC brigade.

    Here's a reply from an ex work colleague who lives in Spain and how they are going about things,
    we have been on lock down now for 10 days and Saturday evening that got extended to the 12th of April, lock down means lock down here only places you can go to are Supermarkets, Pharmacy and petrol station then it’s only 1 of you can go in the car, they only let so many people in at a time and you must have a mask and gloves on and keep 2 metres distance from anyone else, but it’s better to be 2 metres away than 2 metres underground, stay safe.
    We need to be tougher with those that don't adhere to the governments guild lines.

    It's not the 'PC brigade', as you call them, who are out having barbeques Dave. I and most of my friends and colleagues are people you'd probably call PC Brigade and we are all observing the social distancing rules impeccably.
    I would have no problem water cannoning these feckwits, believe me.

    Wow, I don't know where you got that from Steve I never mentioned gathering for a BBQ just a general comment about these morons who obviously don't care about others that might be more vulnerable than themselves.
    I was meaning the likes of Shami Chakrabarti etc, I could just imagine our Shami standing infront of a water cannon spouting "these people have human rights you know", I stand by my PC comment, yes both me and the wife are self isolating as we were asked.

    Sorry if you felt I overreacted to your comment Dave. It's just that I strongly suspect that these ignorant morons flouting rules are often the same people who deride people like me for being 'pc gone mad'; whereas the so-called 'PC brigade' are generally well behaved and are sticking to the rules for everyone's benefit.

    Confused garble from Hancock, who looks more and more out of his depth each passing day:

    "Work only if you can't work from home", he says, offering a headline that COMPLETELY contradicts what Bozza said yesterday.

    Good grief, Hancock, which is it? Don't work unless it's essential, ie, key worker, or don't work only if you CAN work from home?

    Play some circus music for this clown.

    Trump only knows and cares about two things - his own personal esteem and making money. Time and time again he has ruthlessly left people in the sh!t to further his own economic gain. He's incapable of willingly putting public health ahead of economics. He's also terrified that if the economy tanks he won't get re-elected. Whether people will vote for him if he leaves their relatives to die remains to be seen.

    These idiots that blatantly flout the restrictions asked of them are a cancer on society. They're easy to spot, the same fecktards that light barbecues on parched moorland, who drive cars through groups of football fans, the list is endless. The only defining feature of this group that sets them together is their complete lack of intelligence.

    They must be taken in by his 'great, great, great' speeches, as that's all he seems to offer.

    He is a figurehead so removed from politics it's untrue. He knows nothing outside economics.

    Not to mention Gove this morning mumbling his way through questions about plumbing emergencies and such like. They are reacting, not leading and look more clueless by the day.
