Asking people to wear masks in crowded or busy indoor settings and on public transport won’t harm Business. Refusing to issue mask mandates will, eventually. Not only has the Government mismanaged the epidemic, but it’s being driven by economic incompetence.

A reminder of the word ‘forswunk’ (13th century): exhausted from too much work. To be ‘foreswunk’ is to be exhausted before you even begin.

The reason the water companies are putting sewage into our rivers and the sea is because they can’t treat it. They can’t treat it because they can’t get the chemicals.
They can’t get the chemicals because of Brexit.
The government made the Brexit deal.
Before Covid:

People dying in A&E corridors
17000 beds cut
106,000 staff short
43000 nurses short
11000 doctors short
EU staff driven away
Record waiting times
Social care in crisis
GP system broken
But remember it’s Covid that’s to blame for the NHS breaking, not the Tories.
Lost my wallet last week and someone has found it and sent it to me using the address on my driving licence. Haven’t had the best luck with unwittingly revealing my whereabouts this year but that’s really made my day. Thank you kind stranger who knows where I live

Controversial i know, especially given my history of defecating in public, but I’m not an enormous fan of pumping raw sewage into our seas and rivers.

Why on earth do supermarkets only remind you AT THE TILL about the need for food bank contributions? If they had little reminders on the shelves for pasta, tuna, tinned tomatoes, rice, etc I would donate far more than I do.

Reminder for media:

It's not Boris, it's Boris Johnson
Not NHS Test & Trace, it's an outsourced Test & Trace
Not “a budget for a new green economy”, it’s one that boosts travel by plane and road.
Not a “budget to tackle the cost of living”; the poorest still get shafted.
