(The conspiracy theory usually falls apart at this point) I have read in other places that it’s a giant ruse to reset the economies. But I’m not smart enough to know what that means or what benefits it would bring. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lost Login - a long time forum member who made generally decent contributions - was in the same camp but banned himself by writing his password on a piece of paper and eating it. As I may have alluded to, we live on an Island. Indeed a community no less. Many of us have (genuine) friends and relations here, and in that, we care about more than just ourselves. Filippo's post up there ^^ is a good 'un and gives an insight into the mind of a person looking after number one, and number one only although that might possibly extend to their immediate family. So basically you're saying that Sweden's dealing with Covid-19 was "look after yourself and fuck everyone else"? That's a riduculous notion and is inconceivable, how could a nation even propose this let alone enact it? Also, how long do you think this lockdown should go on for then? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gettafa Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 You are basically, basically conflating and twisting things to try and shove words into my mouth But aye, I would say that certain people have the attitude of, to use your words: "look after yourself and fuck everyone else". You? But well done, you are quite right, that is a ridiculous notion and inconceivable, and not one that a nation could enact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manximus Aururaneus Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 17 minutes ago, John Wright said: Will that be for international arrivals rather than CTA? Telegraph today... Passengers arriving at British airports and ports will be placed in quarantine for up to a fortnight, under plans for the "second phase" of the Government's response to the coronavirus pandemic. Officials are drawing up a scheme that mirrors the 14-day "stay home" notices currently issued to Singaporean citizens returning to their country from abroad. It could be rolled out as early as next month, and include large fines for those who fail to remain at the address given to authorities as their place of isolation. The radical plan, being overseen by Priti Patel, the Home Secretary, and Grant Shapps, the Transport Secretary, is intended to stop the transmission of Covid-19 from abroad, when the Government launches its "track and trace" strategy to identify and isolate cases of the virus in the UK. It would apply to both British citizens and those from abroad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donald Trumps Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 Would that be outside of the Common Travel Area or literally ports & airports of Great Britain? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
