  • Re: Coronavirus update

    They wanted to do the herd immunity thing Pearcey3 , it was something straight out of the Nazis eugenics playbook.

      Yes, as in the Johnson interview on This Morning where he outlined the pros of herd immunity and then said "but I disagree with that".

      The sooner we can get back to talking about Cardiff City the better.

        We should have learnt off other countries, we had a few weeks grace and wasted it, right wing austerity measures over many years is going to cost us dear unfortunately.

          Different countries have different scenarios though, can't ignore that - it's not one size fits all.

            Indeed not all other countries had many years of right wing austerity measures decimating their health service.

              So you're saying every nation has exactly the same demographics, population densities etc?

              Perhaps you can point out to all those NHS equivalents in the world that aren't insurance based?

                Good God no, look at Wales we have an old population exacubated by immigrants from England who tend to be old and a drain on our Welsh NHS and our services, we don't get compensated by the English NHS for taking their oldies, the Barnet formula is not fit for purpose.

                  Why not just look at the similar ones? Do you think the U.K. is different enough to Spain, Italy and France that we couldn’t have looked to them and considered it might happen to us ?

                  Our medical experts were certainly advising us so.

                    Why would whether a healthcare system is funded through taxation or insurance have any bearing on how it handles a pandemic?

                      I'm pointing out he's not comparing like with like. Some can get close, sure, but still differences.

                        Agree the Barnett formula isn't fit for purpose, Scotland get far more than should, England far less on a per head from last info I saw a few years ago.

                        Blaming the English? Seriously?

                          I can only remember one incident where England didn't get its way and that was when they wanted us to go to war again in Iraq, the Celts for once had the numbers to just about vote them down but normally due to weight of numbers what England wants England gets, the union state is failing us and they are not for turning, Germanic queen, right wing policies, state religion in England, unelected political chamber etc etc.
                          What have we got by been lumped in with them ? - zero hour contracts, minimum wage jobs, austerity blah blah blah.

                            Without getting unduly personal, I think it fair to say that anti-English sentiment is a very common theme from trampie.
