Maybe they should start putting hydroxychloroquine in drinking water :)
I wonder if he's taking disinfectant as well?

A strip of tarmac goes into the pub and orders a pint. After serving him, the barman asks if he wants to join his mate in the corner. Sitting in the corner is a strip of red tarmac. The strip of tarmac shakes his head violently "I'm not going near him" he says "he's a cyclepath!"

Just having a look. They really encourage trust. Everything isn't working and about all I can see is a page with this disclaimer:

For the avoidance of doubt, Pick for Britain and AHDB has no responsibility and/or liability whatsoever for any third party’s obligations under the Modern Slavery Act 2015.

So that's all right then. They say they have no responsibility or liability so lets them off the hook whatever happens. Did Johnson write that disclaimer? Of course not, that would be work.

When I did it during the school holidays nobody bothered with names, or even everyone came back, who knows? they may have formed a small nation out there, I wonder if that was how the Liberal Democrats appeared?

Oyster, give it up, that 9.1 miles is still nonsense. As I posted above, how could any organisation know when the commmuters themselves often have no idea how many miles they travel on public transport. They don't measure that way, they use what matters, how many hours and minutes. For example I haven't a clue how many miles there are in part three of my commute, but I know it takes 16 minutes on the fast trains.

Just think of the fares. Someone commuting up to about 15 miles distant only needs to pay as posted £1.50 each way on the bus, under £700 per working year. So why do your think there's the massive protests by commuters into London when the fares go up each year and their circa £5000 season ticket goes up another £1000? Clearly they aren't any part of that claim of 9.1 miles.

You know the saying, lies, damn lies and statistics, and we in London suffer it all the time. For example you could look up London's population and tell me the official figure is about 8.9 millions.

But I know that too is nonsense, the true average figure from GLC research revealing it's a minimum of some 10.2 millions, a huge discrepancy.
.
The figure came up in reply not just to London but UK/England when govt was imploring folk to seek alternative to public transport when getting to & from work . As you you have said Flecc Londoners have signficantly divested themselves of their cars. Wether it be 9 miles, 5 or 30 if people have become reliant on public transport the country over - bus, train or tube, The problem facing them is what alternative do they use to surmount whatever distance - back to using a car? speed walking?

I'd like to stick Trump's head in a microwave for 30 sec at 800w.
Many moons ago I use to work in a home for folk with learning difficulties - one chap like to listen to the bell go off by sticking his head close up to the door when his porridge was being microwaved.

Warned mangement this habit wasn't conducive to his long term good health due to diffraction grid not entirely shielding errant radiation at close proximity. Management's attitide was let him do whatever he wants. Ho-hum.

Heard a couple of years later after I'd left, not entirely surprised, that he'd died of an 'unexpected' stroke.

Trump seems to be doing what he wants by self-prescribing and writing his own health checks in his quest for immortality.

Is it today that the fat arsed bitch's immigration bill is published? The one that dictates that if you earn less than £26K you can FO, or something similar.
Probably they'll get a good round of applause & wave goodbye across the nation every Thursday at 8pm till they're all gone.

Heard at the same time that govt was ever so slightly desperately appealing for folk to come out of hiding and 'lend a hand' picking crops...

I imagine they are going to be overwhelmed with applications, these crop picking jobs are the ones that foreigners have been coming here and taking from British workers. Undercutting them on wages too. These fruit picking jobs are going to be paying upwards of £50K per year with free private healthcare and final salary non-contribution pension schemes just as soon as fat-arse fucks all the foreigners off. They’ve been milking it for far too long.
