I think it’s been done before on landmark dates like the 50th - it’s always had far more acknowledgement than VJ Day and that seems strange I suppose as the war was still going on with many uk troops involved
The VE stuff is a modern phenomena isn't it? I don't think anybody who actually experienced the war would really partake in something as crass as this will end up.

For the first time during this pandemic, the news has confused me. They’ve told us to celebrate VE day in a safe way. But I’m pretty sure Safeway closed down years ago
My neighbour is into the Native American culture , he is part of the Lakota tribe in South Dakota he came out on our street in full Native American regalia and did a traditional dance to show support of the keyworkers , it was really good
Get a BB Gun and shoot at him, in support of the keyworkers (obviously).
It's all elevenerife type stuff.
A complete non-story made into a load of nonsense. Standard Daily Mail fare...Oh dear, looks like the right wing fake news machine is running again:

The timeline in that article is frightening. How anyone can think this government has done a good job is a complete abandonment of common sense. I’m not even talking about in hindsight. Just look at the timeline. While other governments were cancelling major gatherings and closing schools Boris took his pregnant girlfriend to twickenham to watch a Rugby match with 83,000 other people. Ireland cancelled st Patrick’s day, Boris allows Cheltenham to go ahead where an estimated 250,000 people attended.Haven't posted in here for well over a week.
Does Grendel still think the Tories are doing a good job?
I presume his 'would you rather be in Italy?' line has been quoted over and over again.
Apologies if already posted, but if you read this and still think Boris lad is doing a good job then you are not right in the head
How Boris Johnson refused to fight the virus
They've well and truly fucked this right up. Honesty and Integrity is a two way street. Where's the honesty and integrity from the Tories? PPE is still a joke, more people are dying here than anywhere else, yet the Tories will try and sugarcoat this shit. Fuck the Tories mate!

Yeah I remember it in 95 but before then?I think it’s been done before on landmark dates like the 50th - it’s always had far more acknowledgement than VJ Day and that seems strange I suppose as the war was still going on with many uk troops involved
I assume a Morrison’s is OK.
I think the Tories counted the years. It’s a few short.I'm making early preparations for the 600th anniversary of the end of the 100 years war in 2053.
Also the VE Day stuff. I’ll admit this could be my own issue but I couldn’t even tell you the date and it’s never ever even crossed my mind before. Something to do these days though isn’t it.

Want to let us out without scrutiny?Sky news reporting 332 new deaths but doesn't look like they're including care home deaths which they usually do
Any reason for that? Bank holiday maybe?
Want to let us out without scrutiny?
Yeah the 332 is hospital deaths only
Regarding the VE day stuff, so many buffoons out there seem to think this was the end of the war.

But the cunts don't even know it's August that will mark the 75th adversary of the end of ww2Why is it the norm now that unless you're going mad clapping, banging pans, putting bunting everywhere and generally making a big song and dance about things you're somehow not as good a person as the ones that do all that stuff?
Not sure we'll even see garden centres opening. We could see just extra exercise which is pointless as people leave the house multiple timesI think the Welsh announcement gives us a pretty good idea of what Boris will say tomorrow. Very little change and another 3 weeks of it.

Shall I tell him ?:emoji_confused:The official end of the war was the 2nd September David
Ending up spending a while reading comments on a similar post last night. Person after person blindly defending the indefensible. In his last election campaign Trump said he could stand in Times Square and shoot someone and still get elected, that really seems like the level we're at over here now.Yet I posted this link on Facebook and two of the comments so far include 'if only these people with all this hindsight had spoken up at the start of the pandemic' and 'give it a rest'
The government can do no wrong in these peoples eyes. Even when it's laid out in front of them in black and white they ignore it or deflect. It's embarrassing.
I hope so, but it begs the question what the past week of hinting has been all about.I think the Welsh announcement gives us a pretty good idea of what Boris will say tomorrow. Very little change and another 3 weeks of it.
Dr Jenny Harries has let herself down.
Blaming the 5th day in a row of sub 100k testing on a technical issue over the weekend in a lab?
Yes a technical issue in 1 lab out of the many used for 2 days will always resulted in almost a week of missed targets
Also the new cases amount is scandalous and the death numbers are not dropping at the rate they should
