Thick as feck fair play
Shoppers can be a pain too , it's of course worrying for everyone but this couple in tescos the other day were fully masked up like riot police and kept turning round as they shopped looking at those behind telling them to keep their distance as if they were the only ones at risk
Someone got pissed off with them in the end and said you look like a pair of idiots in those masks and they do feck all anyway !
Made me chuckle

He also said:
"The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan".
Thank God we've moved on since those times :shrug:

I've seen loads of social media posts from people in NYC who've taken a photo and captioned it "look at all these idiots/arseholes" or words to that effect.

There plenty of people over here that have been brainwashed into thinking that wearing a mask violates their "freedom".

On the subject of masks, this is a genuine story from yesterday afternoon that really amused me:
I got on the 27 Thornhill bus outside the castle at around 3:00pm. There were three people already onboard and a woman wearing a mask got on behind me. I sat towards the back. A couple of minutes into the journey, the woman removed her mask to talk to a bloke who was sitting on other side of the aisle. The conversation lasted until we got to Lidl on Caerphilly Road, where she bid him farewell, put her mask back on and got off the bus.
You'll think I'm making that up, but I promise you I'm not. It was comedy gold.

Re: The joy of government is that the people are stupid
Have you seen the vidoe going round of the woman in the US going into a shop wearing a mask with a hole cut in the front/
When the store keeper asked her why, she said, "It makes it easier to breathe." Incredible :hehe:

Hitler may have been wrong, he didn't lift the world title after all. These Journalists look for daft people, there's no story in interviewing someone who ls bright and reasoned, it means that people can't be outraged by 'stupidity' completely ignoring the fact that those people are in a minority, that's why they stand out so much.

I remember someone on some forum was complaining about the number of people at an out of town shopping complex. The person complaining was at the same complex, doing what they were doing, shopping.

The women is obviously a cretin but does she deserve the ridicule that's going to come her way? I don't think so, she might have kids etc who are going to get grief. Maybe the arsehole who took the video would have been better placed by having a polite word. One thing is for sure though, this Virus has turned some in society into little weasel tell tales. If they've got a problem and have genuine concern then speak up when the incident is happening. :thumbup:

Most people want to be governed, then they don't have to think about all those big nasty problems themselves. They vote for one clown or the other, then they can go back to their ordinary lives and let someone else worry about it all.

A lot of people thought that they were bright enough to govern themselves when given the vote on Brexit not realising that when it went tits up the government could turn around and say ‘Well, you voted for it, nothing to do with us’. Same now in England with the ‘Stay alert’ slogan, if you catch the virus perhaps the powers that be will say ‘Your fault, you obviously didn’t stay alert, like we advised’. Its frightening that the majority in this country wanted Johnson as PM.

The media did a number on corbyn but he was not a strong enough character to shine through . And he was surrounded by idiots like diane Abbott.
But for all the criticism of corbyn , boris johnson is proving to be completely incompetent
He went to eton and studied Latin ff sake and his old man is very rich and he cheered when the nurses were denied a pay rise by him and his tory mates ?
And then he asks us to clap the nurses that he previously treated like crap ?
And now he wants to reverse his brexit control the borders nonsense and invite in much needed immigrants to care for the sick .........but if their families use the NHS they have to pay for it ?
You are great , we are going to clap you every week but we are going to pay you crap wages , you are needed to help care for the sick of this nation , please come and help us , mostly in low paid jobs but if your family uses the NHS its 600 quid by the way
This is the government we have and this is the prime minister we have , defending one of their chief advisers who has pissed off whilst having symptoms of the virus whilst the rest of us have to stay in the house .
I think it's time to turn out the lights , I would rather have corbyn than this clown and history is going to show what a complete shower he and his government are

In hindsight Corbyn’s time should have been the Blair years, how many young servicemen would still be alive now? Under Corbyn I doubt there’d have been terrified parents waving off their sons & daughters never knowing if they’d see them again. What a different, peaceful path this country may, just may have gone down. As you say though, although Corbyn’s time has gone and has for a while, he and his government couldn’t possibly have f*cked up like Johnson’s lot.

Hitler was to a degree, correct .A proportion of people are stupid and more importantly, most people forget easily.
(He didnt win the title because he didn't learn from Napoleons mistakes)
That said you are also correct .
I catch a snippet on the news and they say " a cure for the virus could be 2 years away " the magic word in that sentence is "could"
Its not news , its someone trying to be dramatic , see how many people they can frighten.
Bur people repeat it , as if its a fact now.

Corbyn may have had good ideas , decent morals and obviously cared for the less able in society. He questioned the establishment.
But he was un electable, he just didnt have the dynamism, charisma and personality required.
Keir Starmer has done more for the Labour party in the few weeks he has been in charge than Corbyn did in all his years .
