faraway saint Posted April 24, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2020 Last night's Comic Relief/Big Night In fundraising night hits £27 million. In difficult circumstances they tried but many of the pieces didn't work too well. Surprised they held it on a Thursday night, thought Friday nights, with alcohol induced eejits, would have increased the donations. Also, at these times with so many having financial concerns, the amount is quite surprising. Anyhow, doesn't matter if it wasn't my cup of tea, I bailed out about 9:30, it raised funds for people that need help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faraway saint Posted April 24, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2020 Today's gem to brighten up your day comes from across the pond........................ Mr Trump has suggested INJECTING people with disinfectant could be a cure. I think, and it's only my opinion, he's getting mixed up with disinfectants ability to kill the virus on surfaces or maybe he's as mad as he comes across. If he get's the go ahead might I suggest he starts on the heartland of Trump supporters? Aye, the world really is full of mad people.

Guest TPAFKATS Posted April 24, 2020 Report Share Posted April 24, 2020 This tweet was obviously in relation to Trump's ranting.Ultracrepidarian is however a term that may also come into daily use on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hiram Abiff Posted April 24, 2020 Report Share Posted April 24, 2020 Seldom have our hospitals lain so empty. There are almost 100,000 beds in the NHS, of which 42,540 were unoccupied as of yesterday. Seven Nightingale field hospitals have been built to handle a Covid overflow that never really arrived. NHS hospitals currently have almost twice as many mechanical ventilators as are needed: for the non-invasive ventilators, it’s almost three times as many Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right wing view of Economy > human life. I hate to break up this love in but, like almost every country, there are no definite answers and, therefore, no right or wrong approaches to this. Every country is different in various categories so for you, or anyone, to say one method is responsible for MORE people dying is utter tripe. As for economy v life, that's, unfortunately, a decision that will be made very soon and what governments get paid to do. There will be a time when the numbers are seen as manageable/acceptable, not forgetting every person dying leaves sadness behind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
