This would have been shortly before the IRA murdered John Lee a 35 year old catholic man who had once been a British soldier. He was no threat, they just liked murdering people

I am sorry that Dr Abrahamson feels the way he does but I think he is wrong.

The Israeli government and its actions reflects on the Israeli people having been elected by them.

A change of government in Israel should be the start of peace and restoration of reputation.

And he was having four hour lunches in Chevening at the same time many of us were watching horrible messages from North Italy, scrabbling for missing PPE and having terrifying conversations about what the cut-off age for accessing a ventilator might be.

Shee hoped a young family would buy it but sold it to a property management firm.

She could have sold it to a family if she really wanted to.

Another episode of Inman's vendetta against anyone over the age of 60.
We're all rich, all work shy, we all spend our ill gotten riches on endless foreign cruises.

Apparently none of us provide childcare, volunteer or support our local economies.

Never mind taxing us, we should all be deported.

taught me how to use the exercise bike
how to walk with a stick
how to walk without a stick
people on this “island of strangers”
from China, Jamaica, Brazil, Ireland
India, USA, Nigeria and Greece.

If ever you’re in need as I was
may you have an island of strangers
like I had.

people on this “island of strangers”
from China, Jamaica, Brazil, Ireland
India, USA, Nigeria and Greece.

I sat on the edge of my bed
and four people came with
a frame and supported me
or took me to a gym
where they taught me how
to walk between parallel bars
or kick a balloon

I lay in bed
hardly able to breathe
but there were people to sedate me,
pump air into me
calm me down when I thrashed around
hold my hand and reassure me
play me songs my family sent in
turn me over to help my lungs
shave me, wash me, feed me
check my medication
perform the tracheostomy

Time to escalate the action.
Start handling back Enhanced Services?

Disappointingly weak list of actions.

After such a huge mandate from GPs this action needs to be much more bold, even aggressive.

Either escalate quickly or just give up.

Presumably our Labour government will be charging the Pope with supporting terrorism later today.
Or maybe make the Catholic Church illegal.
More opportunities for arresting nuns.

Doesn't matter, mob rule will ensure that everything is less important than not annoying paramilitaries.

Asbestos related cancers? Small price to pay.
