Yeah, but the Russians don't care, as long as they have enough Vodka.

I was watching one of the VE day 75 anniversary documentaries on TV this evening, apparently as the Russians were advancing across Russia, and the Eastern European countries drivin the Germans back to Berlin in the harsh winter the army used to mix Vodka in with their diesel to stop it freezing in the troop carriers, and tanks.

I also remember in Bulgaria, Tino, one of the guys at the factory said to me "there are no ugly women in Bulgaria, just not enough Vodka to go round"

You clearly spent too much time with Russian men.

I spent a fair bit of time talking to Russian 'ladies of the night' in Moscow, they were some of the brightest and best-educated women I've ever met. And sober.

If you look into the Spanish Flu, the death rate was 3 times worse after due to the celebrations when they lifted any distancing... History about to repeat itself???

And Covid 19 is not a flu, It's a severe respiratory pnuemonia.

I simply used Spanish flu to demonstrate that the current (note the word current) covid death toll is not the worst death total the world has ever had.

As to your worry about a major resurgence of two to three times the current situation, because you would not trust any easing of the current lockdown situation, it's ssimple you have every right to keep yourself isolated from the rest of society for as long as you wish, that is your choice.

Again, I never suggested Spanish flu was the same as / related to covid, however it is spread in much the same ways, mainly by respiratory means.
I do know a little about severe respiratory pnuemonia, I almost died from it in hospital when I was a few years old, and have had a weak chest ever since.

Wow, who knew that combining a game of My Little Pony Monopoly with the family and foreign beers could have reduced me to such a spectacle. Apologies to all offended cat lovers.

That's pretty much a sorry-not sorry apology because fuck cats.

That's what playing games with little pony's can lead to, it's a downward spiral from there on.

I would suggest that Boris gets out of his shagging pit a bit earlier in the day and get on the telly, before the others.
By standing by the UK government....do you mean the English government...... I have already explained to you that each devolved nation has responsibility for health and education...are you thick? hard of hearing?

Bit offensive isn't it, I honestly thought better of you.
But if you wish to be like that, fair enough.

This started off simply enough by saying that in this national crisis my opinion is that the various governments within the UK should present a unified leadership, rather than going off in their own directions, often with a hidden political agenda, rather than the best interests of the whole nation.

Now to your points.
I have not a clue as to what time Boris gets up in the morning, nor what he has been doing during the night, neither have you, unless you are now saying you are psychic ?
Of course Sturgeon would not have a similar problem as no one in their right mind would want to shag that pig ugly, fucking old trout.
Good that eh, Sturgeon ---- Trout, don't you think.

To use your own term "are you thick" there is no English government, the parliament in Westminster is the government of the United Kingdom Of England Ireland Scotland And Wales, which is why there are Scottish, Welsh, and Irish MP's sitting in the house of commons, get the idea ?

Yes health & education is devolved to the Scottish parliament, but with one important proviso you may, or may not know about, "These developments do not fundamentally undermine the principle of parliamentary sovereignty, since, in theory at least, Parliament could repeal any of the laws implementing these changes."
Here is a link to the relevant information, as I dare say you will pronounce that I am wrong.
https://www.parliament.uk/about/how/role/sovereignty/
In other words, any of the devolved parliaments can be done away with, if the UK parliament wished to do so.
Did you hear that bit tartan cloth ears.

Lol ok stay in your wee dream world goodluck.

If you consider that wanting the various governments remain united in this national crisis is being it a dream world then it indicates that you do not really give a toss about the situation.

The reason for the lack of solidarity is because the Scottish government are taking it more serious

I wish I believed that as much as you appear to, see the simple fact is that if the Scottish government were taking things more seriously that the UK government, with their devolved health powers, surely they would have introduced a more severe lockdown to start with.

i dont see Sturgeon going around shaking folks hands and ending up catching it.
Johnson as PM has let his Father who is supposed to be staying at home see his new Grandson,
totally irresponsible.

So are you saying that Sturgeon never shook anyone's hand since March when Scotland's first case was recorded.

Now, what you have said about Boris letting him see his grandson is complete fabrication (whether by yourself, or a media article you have seen) the fact is that Boris Johnsons dad left his home, and went to buy a newspaper to check for information about his grandson following the birth.
Plus for your information the advice that people over a certain age should self isolate until it is all over, is advisory for your own protection, not mandatory.

The sooner we get independence the better, then we dont have to follow this so called solidarity.

Personally I completely agree with you over this point, during the run up to your failed independence referendum, I held the same opinion, I wish they get independence, so we have not got to listen to the SNP moaning all the time.

 

[Badboybez]

Exactly, guys a complete tosser.

That's your opinion, which of course you are entitled to.
Just as I am entitled to my opinion that Sturgeon is a power crazy old cow that wants be be head of a Scottish Republic, even if if wrecks the country in the process.

 

[Badboybez]

There are no legal ins and outs.....to argue about..
If Scotland, Wales, NI decide to differ from England....that is their right n choice.....as of yet they have not

See my post 415.

Also regarding the devolution of health & education it is worth noting that security, and therefore the military are not devolved, so if the UK government got the right hump over things in Scotland, Wales, or NI it could simply send the armed forces over, and use martial law.

No mate, it was a Bulgarian guy who said that to me.

The Bulgarian ladies of the night in Stara were rarely drunk, but they were very persistent until our Bulgarian financial controller taught me how to say go away. and fuck off, in Bulgarian.
Mind you there is still a card in my wallet from a club that gives a 30% discount to repeat customers. Not that I ever availed myself of their services.
