    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    We've known from the beginning that there are big racial differences in vulnerability to Covid-19, white people the most fortunate as the basis for the below that was published last year, long before any vaccines existed: Black people have 4 times the risk of serious consequences. Those from...

    Depends what you mean by relevance, they'd introduced lots of new fangled stuff like hydraulic brakes and synchromesh on the gears. There wasn't even a starting handle in the front of the radiator grill any more. .

    Yes, I never liked the Top Gear programs, especially the ones with the moronic elements, behaving like out of control children. Fifth Gear Recharged has been like a breath of fresh air in comparison. Also good to see that they got away from the very all white world that motoring programs have...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    It seems to be just random now telling everyone regardless. Lots of the TV channels have been interrupted with the Booster message. Incidentally I've been following the Fifth Gear motoring program for several weeks. It's now called Fifth Gear Recharged and is solely on fully electric cars...

    No, it's good that Soundwave is here with us. If he wasn't the next one in line would be picked on. It's the nature of society that there always has to be a villain. .

    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...

    Or given that our democracy has failed us, make John Caudwell live up to his fine words by making him dictator for five years. .

    You may get your wish: Caudwell also warned he would not continue to support the party should it continue to be hit by allegations of sleaze. “Whoever can rule this country properly, in my view, I will vote for,” he said. “I’m not a dyed-in-the-wool Conservative that will stay Conservative. I...

    Our deaths are 19.8% lower, so there's still almost 10% to account for. :p We have very few Mancunians, they do see London as visitors but in my experience they really dislike London and don't hesitate to robustly say so. We've a number of them in this forum I've crossed swords with. Only...

    Dear oh dear, so many going sick with Omicron that there's huge staff shortages disrupting hospitals, care homes, railways etc. What an amazing coincidence that it's happened just in time to spend Christmas day with their families. .

    More good news for London, sampling shows we have got 6% infected with Omicron in the last week alone. That will be well over half a million already gaining some immunity against Omicron to add to our already very high prior infection immunity against existing variants. In our high density...

    It's the same sympathy one has for all the afflicted and inadequate, and they were unfortunate that Covid arrived when it did. But I fully agree, they have maximised the damage at every turn and I have often posted as such. .
