@Sick Boy Hopefully Italy can provide us with some better news later mate, everywhere has had a bad one today

Go on someone ask when they are announced

[SkyBlueDom26]

So will the cases/deaths go back to how they have been for the past few days tomorrow then and today lagged from the weekend? Confused by it all fuck knows what to believe anymore

 

[PVA]

Er no he didn’t and there we go again

Yes he did. But we've been over that one a hundred times.

You still haven't explained the handshake thing, you keep dodging that point, can you put that one to bed for us?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

My position was that he shouldn't have shaken hands and boasted about it, the NHS should be better funded and he shouldn't have made a joke about 'Operation Last Gasp'.

That was literally it and no I won't retreat from that.

Apparently that means I want Johnson to die a horrible death and will celebrate it.

That wasn't literally it though was it, it came across as though you were glad he was ill. I never said you wanted him dead.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Oh I stand 100% by those in fact i can say with certainty absolute certainty if there is a recovery it will be suggested he lied about the illness was not really ill and was an attempt to create much needed popularity

I gave you an out and you doubled down. Have a good day

Hopefully should do, if you look at all the results from Tuesdays they have always been higher as it lags a bit at the weekend, still looks like peak in the next week or so

 

[PVA]

That wasn't literally it though was it, it came across as though you were glad he was ill. I never said you wanted him dead.

Yes that was literally it!

If you thought it came across that I was glad he is ill then you read what wasn't there.

Hope so mate, today has been a shock

 

[PVA]

Hope so mate, today has been a shock

We're at least a week away from the peak it seems so unfortunately and very sadly it's not a shock to see high numbers.

Coronavirus: The European countries beginning to lift lockdown measures

Yes, they all controlled the outbreak effectively at the outset. Not a chance we're anywhere near where they are.

Pretty simple really. I could die today and they report it on Thursday, it goes into Thursday's figures rather than today's.

 

[Grendel]

Yes he did. But we've been over that one a hundred times.

You still haven't explained the handshake thing, you keep dodging that point, can you put that one to bed for us?

No he didn’t say it all (I assume it’s the this morning interview) he didn’t say operation last breath (would have been a pretty funny one liner but hey) and he did t shake hands it was just a Pr visit and statement - one not dodged it and showed other leaders doing the same thing

 

[Grendel]

Hope so mate, today has been a shock

At the very beginning the estimate by Ferguson was around 20,000 deaths

Yep interesting figures on this from earlier in the thread below.

The key bit:

"This is important.

In the end the numbers must match, so the daily counts we get at 14:00 will miss the peak, which will come earlier than it appears because we will go on recording many deaths in hospitals even when the rates are declining fast"

Seen something today suggesting 66k, don't personally think it will get like that

 

[PVA]

He is reported to have said 'Operation Last Gasp' and did not deny it when asked.

And you think that's a funny one liner? After all your preaching about dignity over the last few days? You fucking hypocrite.

You keep saying he didn't shake hands, we know that's what you think, but what you keep ignoring is why did he say on national television that he did?

 

[Grendel]

20,000 is during this period it’s likely at some point we will have to live with it

He made a throwaway remark regarding shaking hands - big deal,

Operation last gasp was bollocks as 59 of the 60 people on the call have not said he said it and if he did it would have been funny

Why do you keep saying he never shook hands? He said himself he did. Or do you think it's another of his lies?

 

[PVA]

You're just talking shit now. It's quite funny.

Apparently I'm an awful c**t for saying Boris should take it on the chin but you're fine to say Operation Last Gasp is funny, while thousands of people die, many because they can't get a ventilator.

What the hell is wrong with you?

You are not right in the head.

Here we go finally, it's a throwaway comment now is it? Get back to counting all your likes on your posts and talking to your imaginary friends in your PMs and stop chatting absolute shit.

10 minutes it took you ten minutes ten fucking minutes

again he said he said it. I agree, not a big deal but he did say it

Yeah "shaking hands not a big deal" is a bit fucked up tbh

Apparently a live broadcast to the entire nation while trying to stress the importance of hygiene is a 'throwaway comment'

Classic Grendel

Exactly which dom is why you see less deaths at the weekend as it seems that the people reporting deaths at the trusts don't do as much of a weekend

 

[fernandopartridge]

TBF the lag in data might mean we're actually already at the peak, who knows. We won't know we've gone over the peak until a few days after it.

 

[chiefdave]

he didn’t say operation last breath (would have been a pretty funny one liner but hey)

You're right he didn't. He was reported to have said, on a call to manufacturers, that efforts to source ventilators should be called operation last gasp.

He was given the chance to clear it up at the following days press conference but when asked if he thought that was appropriate but instead of denying it he gave a load of waffle.

I think what I want and what all businesses want, to explain what I was saying, is an end to suffering. And that is why they are working incredibly hard in the next few weeks. And we really only have a few weeks to build literally thousands of ventilators this country will need. The British industry, manufacturers, are responding to this challenge with incredible energy and determination.

 

[David O'Day]

TBF the lag in data might mean we're actually already at the peak, who knows. We won't know we've gone over the peak until a few days after it.

I think the cases are a better indication. Deaths have a bigger lag and people can die in 48 hours or 12 days.

I like how grenners is sticking to his guns in spite of all evidence.

He's like my uncle Barry and his claims about Elvis and the moon landings

I miss the days where we would talk about our sky blues, feels like a long time ago:sorry:

It's interesting to see someone who was calling everyone a c**t last night for daring to say a bad word about Johnson while he's ill also find it funny to take the piss out of people dying from lack of ventilators. But then again that's classic Tory ain't it, protect their own and fuck the peasants.

It's pretty incredible, I actually can't believe it. He called me every name under the sun yesterday for having the temerity to insult his precious overlord, yet he thinks it's funny to laugh at thousands of people dying?

Seriously.

I guess we all now know that he's either on the windup or is not right in the head.

 

[Grendel]

Even Ian says he didn’t

 

[David O'Day]

Mate, there's a fucking video of him saying it in that post you replied to.

Do you need help? Really do you because I'm worried about you.
