Yeah that doesn't surprise me. They should be in a great position to get things at a good deal too with the power they do have. Their needs to be joined up thinking at all government departments, schools, universities etc. Because most deparments I would say are underfunded but then equally all of them waste so much money too. And it's something I just don't get, surely it's better for everyone to make every pound count, then you can get more stuff and improve? I dont think it helps when ministers move around a lot as well and barely have a chance to settle into the role before a reshuffle moves them and the whole circus starts again. I read an interesting article the other day saying that the career history of the chancellor usually affects who gets what as well for example if the chancellor has never worked in defence then they wont really worry too cut about cutting their funding. Yeah that really doesn't surprise me. Ideally surely it should be something outside of all that though surely? Probably a naive thing to say but it just seems to make sense, to me anyway.

If they (Boris and his medical advisors) were advising us to continue shaking hands 25 days ago, then it leaves you with very little confidence in the stuff they're telling us now. It's only 18 days since Johnson was shaking every offered hand and posing for selfies in Bewdley. I got accused on here of playing politics for calling it stupid. Surely it was obvious by that stage that it was something he should not have been doing?
I'll run the risk of being accused of playing party politics again by saying that, although I recognise that we all need to pull together at the moment, the guy from the Lancet on Question Time last night was scathing about the situation with PPE a how February was wasted time.
I will genuinely wish Johnson and all sufferers a speedy recovery from this, but hope that in future people will take a hard look at just what the fuck this government was dicking about at until recently.

Very best wishes to Boris Johnson
Apparently he is on one of the new Dyson ventilators and is picking up nicely

The Brazilian fella had it..... That wasn't confirmed in the end but he almost certainly did. The hospital that tested all his staff positive blacked out two names when asked to publish a list. He never isolated. He's been saying its mild and everyone should go back to work. Now his 39 bodyguard is in hospital with it. It's a farce.

skip I hope you're compiling a report on the psychological well-being of this place 2 weeks into 'lockdown'? Funnily enough I've not spotted anything so far that suggests this place is any more unhinged than normal. I am keeping a keen eye on the place, mind. Stay Safe Stay Oatcake Hear hear... Oatcake posters pointing out unhinged posting is the equivalent of butter bean calling someone porky 😉

Yeah I read today that 25 of his close associates have it and he's just being the prick he is. Can see it getting quite messy in Brazil if he carries on like he is.

What, so no tea and biscuits? Or a cup of tea and a slice of cake? It's a fair point One of my current addictions is Goldessa cream cheese (Lidl-bloody gorgeous), bacon flavour TUC biscuits and some grapes. What beverage would best accompany this? Pedigree.

759 sadly passed away now in U.K. Is that something like 181 in previous 24 hours? It’s accelerating

On reflection he may have shaken hands with new Canadian Citizen and former Royal, Harry Windsor, or whatever his official style is these days. And Harry had recently said goodbye to his father, Prince Charles, who apparently has the infection.

Deaths are being reported like many countries. It isn't possible to report deaths immediately that's why it's a collection over an extended period.
182 though today unfortunately confirms UK is on track to follow Italy and Spain... And still no solid lockdown

Day to day we're behind them still, which is good. 759 to their 1015 So hopefully it carries on like that but it's still all tremendously sad.

I think the period where death reporting changed is the difference Bayern. Might need to add a couple of days into the 14 to get a newer version to compare.

Our lockdown and reactions were better though. Not to mention the healthcare system in Italy is fantastic. Let's keep hoping though.
