After a long pause, I've just done another England Covid & NHS update as we head into the autumn/winter season.

TLDR: we're in a significant Covid wave now, the NHS is stretched, get boosted if you're eligible.

How dare you. You don’t just write shit like that, unless you’re a fucking amateur or a nasty little troll.

Far be it from me to stick up for the gestapo looking Jenrick.

But why has he received all the stick while racist Farage can basically help fuel riots, be a racist on a number of occasions and the media say fuck all?

You’re an embarrassment. No better than the far right. You need to calm the fuck down.

I’m not convinced at this time that PR would do anything. We have such a tribal, febrile political climate. I could see the smaller parties collapsing governments. They just want chaos.

Only use VAR for a ball over the goal line.

Bin it for everything else.

A gross exaggeration. Words like ‘vicious’ and ‘agreeing’ with burning hotels. It’s just ridiculous and all that’s wrong with this country and its febrile atmosphere. As I said they’ve been cowardly and naive and un-labour and I’ve said it so, many times but your language is not helpful.

VAR is so shit!

Stopping the game and mulling over a penalty.

Then not giving it. 🤦‍♀️🙄

We really haven’t, that’s just silly.

I think Labour have been a massive disappointment. They’ve been cowardly. They have also been incredibly naive. To equate them to fascists, is frankly ridiculous.

Well I agree. Right now we have few choices if we don’t want actual fascists in?

Dear people of the U.K. (ostensibly England and Wales)

Until you realise this country is fucked because of 14 years of terrible mismanagement in every way by the Tories….

You will end up with Reform U.K. Ltd (Tories on crack) running this country.

And you think it’s bad now?!

But what about all the waste they told us about? What about all the savings DOGE was going to find? What about the promises to cut council tax?
It's almost as if they were just making shit up to fool people, like they did with Brexit.
