Nice channelling of the Trump there MK, but what you say isn't even remotely close to being true. Just off the top of my head, take Thailand, a country with a population approx 2 million greater than that of the UK, they've had 3,345 cases and 58 deaths, we're up to nearly 48,000 deaths and fuck knows how many cases, so to say we're no better or worse off than anywhere else is just plain wrong. We're worse off by a long, long way.mkhammer wrote: ↑Sat Aug 08, 2020 8:00 pm Yeah we fucked up...rest of the world has it sussed...every where else in the world has it under control...and we're gonna be
wiped out.....
Boris and his mates will crawl out of their Bunker....and flog the UK to the States for 500 Billion....happy days.....
Seriously tho, it is what it is...it's doing exactly the same everywhere...we're no better or worse than anywhere else....
Taking it all in, I'd say doing slightly better than most....seems like we are one of the only countries putting true stats
up....in fact with a little legal tweaking could make them seem a lot better....
Take a look around whats going on...why should we be immune from it....knocking on up to 2,000,000 new cases a week,
Worldwide and 6500 deaths a day ,which is easily nearer 10,000...and it maybe it hasn't peaked yet...it slows and picks
up again.....fuck knows where it's going at the moment....some countries have no way of containing it adequately...
so it will keep moving on....
We're doing the best we can with this shit of a thing...and all the Press/Media...Plenty of so called "Experts"
Scientific and Medical etc....and a whole bunch of Talking Heads on the TV interviews...is Slag the Country/Government
off....................AGAIN..........
Compare the UK to any other country with a population of comparable size to ours and we're fucking miles ahead in the terms of deaths. That stat is not a coincidence, bad luck or pure serendipity, it's a stat that shows that the UK has fucked this pandemic up from the get go. Also, I don't believe for one moment your stat rigging conspiracy either, not from within any democratic country anyway. No, the UK Government has to take responsibility for this and to try and lay the blame at the feet of the media is a bit pharisaical imo. God forbid anyone critisise the mighty Boris and his Government for the bang up job they're doing.
There's a reason the blonde booby has been sacked from pretty much every job he's ever had, trouble is, his ineptitude is now costing lives.
