Agreed, it is all more of a process of misinformation using the ‘we’ll fight it on the beaches ...’ philosophy.o-no wrote: ↑Sun Mar 22, 2020 7:52 am OK, so Helen Dickinson is head of the British Retail Consortium, and as you would expect she has been saying that British retailers can cope, "there's plenty of food in the supply chain", etc etc.
What I'm not seeing is any evidence that there is/was huge stocks warehoused specifically in anticipation of a no-deal Brexit.

A 'BLACK' guy and a 'MUSLIM' lady.Scuba Diver wrote: ↑Sat Mar 21, 2020 11:09 am Racist? They've never struck me as that. One is a black guy, and one a Muslim lady, so I guess you're tarring them with the R -card too because they voted for something you didn't agree with.
Seems small-minded to me, but there you go. I'm sure you know best.
Sorry but why is someone's religion relevant here?
Oh dear, the pure irony in your comment!

Johnson needs Brexshit and the language he has created around it to keep himself in the top job.
Nothing else matters to him. He is totally out of his depth and he doesn't have a clue but he is still trying to wing it by evoking war time stoicism which is the sort of thing that appeals to many Brexiteers.
His initial strategy of sacrificing the sick and elderly (regarded by some as a drain on public finance for social & health care) in order to strengthen the immunity of younger people was quite an eye opener!
Also interesting that he now delivers his PM speeches flanked by the Union Jack in a way that just shows the St. George's cross.
Johnson Out he’s a liability as is Cummings
And on a personal opinion I don’t have much trust in Vallance or Whitty either

If those people complained they we treated in a brutal way. The British Empire was the most brutal empire ever.
Brexit will be a disaster with or without Coronavirus.
In three years when it's starting to go pear shaped, the leavers will start all the excuses.

Britain is going to need emigrants to help rebuild a shattered economy. These are uncertain times for all of us and our countries futures.
