Was is the operative word Danidl, and they can only be as good as the information fed to them. Such nonsense as deaths being due to Covid if within 28 days or 60 days of a positive test, and the even greater nonsense of a mention of Covid on a death certificate. Add to those two of the worse...

I think it's well within their capabilities but they just don't want to. It's a simple enough job, a death is a death, a body either living or dead, so arriving at a single precise number isn't in any way difficult. That they don't want to do that is illustrated by them presenting the number...

But not remotely like the numbers being confidently forecast at the peak on 19th July. And as mentioned, the death totals are refusing to co-operate, staying stubbornly low. I'm sticking with my calculated numbers based on the more reliable deaths data and now supported very precisely by...

You know full well that as for Flu and Pneumonia, not just flu No fiction, I've already shown in this post that your assumption of fiction being used is completely wrong. That clearly showed how deducting the average number of deaths for previous years from the 2020 total resulted in the much...

Russell Scott is the founder of the pedelecs forum and an administrator. I've reported your problem to Admin. .

Sorry Oyster, but you are just as bad as Woosh and Danidl, you just can't stop looking for a negative possibility. Why not just look at the facts that are known. For example the verified fact that the government's now admitted gross exaggeration of almost doubling the confirmed Covids deaths...

Back now to justify why I put a "Disagree" on your post back on 19th July, because I knew you were wrong and have proven to be since, now we are half way through your forecast 42 day period. You posted at the peak of 50,000 infections a day, but far from that being maintained or rising as you...

Don't know why they picked on Southern Water. Thames Water's overloaded sewage system routinely discharges raw sewage into the Thames, on average once a week, and no further fines have been issued. Both companies discharges end up in the Thames Estuary and the North Sea. Thames Water are...

Agreed, and much better for me too in my 20s and early 30s. The social changes of the 1960s were just the population catching up with the new politics that Clement Atlee and co. had introduced, reality rather than fantasy. .

It did exist, in a complete form most recently in Edwardian times. But WW1 and the ensuing 1920s made lasting changes in our society. Then the same happened again with WW2 and for the 1920s read 1960s, making further lasting changes. Then the third lasting change was due to migration, a a...

Typical York, living in the past. The Archbishop needs to wake up and recognise the reality instead of wrongly attacking London. Not just London, this country isn't the England of the past any more, that went many years ago. Here in London with almost 60% not even white British, let alone...

5pm Friday, infections down again in England last week, and the R number down sharply. You see, two more reasons for realists to be as cheerful as the optimists. .

No, they weren't pedelecs! :D .

Very different here. First day after the easing a few were without masking at the Sainsburys super store, then a couple of days later that rose to about half not masked, perhap encouraged by them having a huge notice at th entrance saying masking was no longer required That was last week, this...

That's the stuff, always go looking for the worst possible numbers! :) .

Exactly what I've been advocating all along. Threatening with the law and heavy fines is just plain stupid. Just make the people be aware of the risks to themselves and everyone around them and the best way to deal with that and they will do the rest. All Matt Hancock achieved with his...

What she really did was switch the power stations from our clean burning anthracite coal to the dirtiest burning lignite coal imported from such as South America, thus making a major contribution to climate change and general pollution over the next three decades. N.B. Crossed with OG's post...

So take it to the courts. These people left here on a set of rules and those being changed midstream after departure. Claim that the government must pay the hotel bill since this is retrospective law. .

But the infections haven't risen to the widely predicted 50,000 a day, it's currently about half that, the hospitals are saying they are coping ok and deaths stay low, So the recent panicking has been overdone once again. Time to remain calm and just carry on with the current moderate...

I see a simple answer. Enjoy the Mexican holiday and on return, tell them where to stuff their enforced hotel isolation. Like everyone is now telling them where to stuff their silly fines. .
