Brexit, for once some facts.

[flecc]

The propoganda from another doctor..

No doubt he, s lying, making it up..

Give it a rest Zlatan.

I post about London and it's unique situation, you respond with irrelevancy from the North of England.

Of course they are suffering, that is exactly the point I'm making, that London is doing much better than elsewhere for the given reason.

So thank you for the example in my support, but please drop the sarcasm.

[Woosh]

And as for people like me? Who exactly is that?

Daily Mail readers and tory readers.

typo, sorry. Tony voter, not reader.

 

[Zlatan]

Daily Mail readers and tory readers.

I, m neither.
But WTF is a tory reader. A Tory that can read??? I, d guess most can but its not certain.

The Preston Hospital link was a general argument around NHS message re get jabbed/boosted. It wasn't in reply to your situation. Merely another example of NHS consultants expressing emotions about unvaccinated suffering on ICUs.
If aimed at anyone it was GI and SW. (unvaccinated amongst us)
I, ll drop the sarcasm, you drop the propoganda (and mug) comments.

sorry, I meant to type tory voter.

I, m neither.

I am genuinely surprised that you are neither.
I can't read the Daily Mail because it's behind a paywall so I assumed you subscribe to it to be able to quote articles from it, something that you do often.
You are a very rare poster on this thread known for defending BJ and not vote for the tories.

I have absolutely, definitely never signed up to the Mail and don't give them any money. I don't know why I can access much of it without difficulty.

I try to avoid quoting sources that are not openly accessible - at least to some extent. Of course, sometimes I will make a mistake or post anyway.

I tried many times to follow the DM links that zlatan posted and hit the paywall every time.

 

[Zlatan]

No, I don't subscribe to DM. I thought it was free, they always appear and with no begging link.. Seem to be able to read around 6 a week Telegraph and Guardian articles, then begging link appears.
I subscribe to Times and FT but rarely offer links because they would appear with begging /sales link.
Thought Express and Mail were free???

Honestly didn't realise that. I will desist.
I sometimes post them playing Devils advocate. I do skip to DM comments.. Much more a guidance for how natives are feeling. They have turned.

On another forum, someone posted a link to nytimes.com - and many people could not access it. Others could.

Somewhat oddly, searching for the article, and seemingly seeing the same link in Google, you could access most of it. Whereas, following the posted link, you only saw the headline and most of the article was covered up/obscured.

Same here. That's why I post quite a few Sky News and EarliNews feeds. (the Earlinews links often break tho)

 

[oyster]

the Earlinews links often break

For me, I think they always do! I see the multiple stories page, which doesn't help much!

 

[Zlatan]

Woosh
Apologies, the rich socialist comment was out of order. The "your type" comment must have hit a nerve. Sorry.

 

[Woosh]

No, I don't subscribe to DM. I thought it was free, they always appear and with no begging link..

I registered with the DM and the Daily Express back in 2016 when brexit was a hot topic to be able to post comments there but never subscribed.

One of the difficult issues is allocating what is seen to be a fair and equitable amount to each party.

Basing it on last GE results would be giving the tories a lot more than anyone else, thus tending to cement their position.

And when new parties emerge (e.g. Lib Dems from merger, or a completely one)? Especially if the pre-existing parties continue with a rump existence.

That would be a really interesting problem to work out and to develop a formula which fairly addresses different scenarios.

 

[Jesus H Christ]

One is a comedy film made to create humour and joviality. The other is an ongoing trajedy involving real people in stress, real people trying to help and people actually dying.
I accept in your weed induced stupor it's hard to differentiate the two but just for a moment stop and think about the situation. That doctor complaining is real. People on his ward are going through hell and many needlessly.
Alikening their situation to a Monty Python film says more about you than anything else. Tasteless, crass, uncaring, selfish. Having a laugh at somebody else's suffering. Another new low. Well done SW.

SW is a parasite, one of life's takers. He’s in negative social equity, ie Earth would be a slightly better place if he wasn’t living on it.

I don't know how things are in the UK, but my local library here in Ireland, has links to global systems and using my library reference number, and an android app called Pressreader , I have access to a hundred lifetimes worth of newspapers..including the all aforementioned heavies and lightweights.

i would have fed Jesus to the lions, and im still not dead

A selection of anti vaxx comments courtesy of DM readers..




Honestly, I didn't have to trawl much to find these, all on same thread, and look at votes of support they get.
It's mass insanity..
What is going on???

 

[Zlatan]

Is there any reason for this disclosure or are you telling us what you thought you were doing last night.
It's not too clear. A dream perhaps??
And to be fair SW, if you were involved at all Jesus would run to the lion without complaint.
Oh, and by the way. Jesus missed out on that Roman speciality. He got the other. He was crucified.
Watch out for those live nano fibres.

I am NOT a subscriber to it. I did decide to pay for The Guardian for many reasons, including their crosswords! Also, because I'd rather see people having access despite not paying (that is, I am subsidising their use), than see paywalls and other blocks everywhere.
