Speaking to the nation, UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson says the coronavirus is "the biggest threat this country has faced for decades".
He says "without a huge national effort" there will come a time when "no health service in the world could possibly cope; because there won’t be enough ventilators, enough intensive care beds, enough doctors and nurses".
maybe, but it would certainly cope a lot easier if we had actually looked after the NHS properly you absolute fucktards

I went to not-so-aptly-named Costcutter this afternoon, they had a selection of essentials including piles of toilet paper, but everything cost 2 or 3 times what it should usually. A man was having an argument with the cashier because she wouldn't let him buy three £5 bags of fusilli, he had to get his girlfriend in from the car to buy the third bag.

Unfortunately for us, we have only used delivery for the most part since we moved here.

can anyone better versed in the logistics of British legal procedure than I am tell me what ‘the police will have the power to do x’ means in immediate and real terms? i assume it doesn’t just work on illucutionary force and afaicr there was nothing about police powers in the coronavirus legislation

I'm going to be daily breaking the curfew, but responsibly where there aren't ppl and not where dirty fucking five-o can follow me without a helicopter.

pretty pissed off about this the more i think about it - angry with all the pricks who couldn't follow the basic rules and have ruined it for everyone else, angry with the government for making such a botch of explaining things in the first place, angry about the herd immunity fiasco that lost vital time when we could've been implementing more tolerable control measures - not to mention costing however many additional lives, angry that the nhs is so poorly resourced that it's being overwhelmed so quickly, angry that all this is probably too late anyway
xp i heard they were going to give certain citizens drones so they could take out miscreants like calzino without having to venture out from behind their net curtains

A bunch of the dumbest dog owners on the planet are now arguing that ‘exercise once daily’ is about dogs AND humans. In my humble but correct opinion it’s not exercise if you have to pick up something’s poop.
