    Yes BSP, you have got it in one. Every one of those carriages is an incubator. Of huge interest is that of re-emergence of cases in China. Small clusters have started to appear..Even in areas where they had no cases for 70 days!. Now these could be visitors or even could be bugs left on...

    Sorry flecc, but my view is more nuanced than that in it is the cumulative effect of viral load. So for instance if every 10th person you walked past quickly was an active carrier ,it is like passing a single person very slowly. So ambling down a full Oxford Street is bad news but strolling...

    Well obviously the offence was admitted..even boasted. The new European newspaper reports the the police encounter slightly differently than the Mail. As I previously stated, the proof will be in the readiness of this "Journalist ", to make a trip to Scotland ,to check on immigration from Norway

    Well really puts us back into the Brexit mode then. Ireland might have to suspend the common travel area CTA with mainland UK , if there is no reductions in infections. The key point is whether the NI executive will follow Dublins lead or Westminsters. Even NI Unionists who desperately wish...
