@Nihilixica I'd like that too, but as we know loads of the electorate love the lockdown.

I am hoping he'll come into his own when this shitshow is over and provide a credible opposition and a party I can vote for. Pretty stuck up here anyway!

I also just saw some top shielding dementoring - shielders have been told they're not allowed out until July. Someone has announced its ok to carry on lockdown for 100 years so her friends and family dont die of the virus, then she will see them safely.

Whats their magic potion thats going to keep them live for another 100yrs then? She should sell it and make a bloody fortune!
Covid seems to have the power to suck the very brains out of people! They are just surviving on their brain stem function nothing else!

I think in the middle of a national emergency, when basic rights are at risk is the time we need an Opposition most.

Waiting until afterwards because the removal of rights is popular is no different from what Johnson is doing.

AnxiousElephant77 · 08/06/2020 14:37

@Nihiloxica Couldn't agree more.

Absoultely.

I have admired Keir Starmer for years.

Perhaps my expectations were too high, but so far I am really disappointed. Sad

My freedom, and my kids' education, is most likely to be restored by Tory backbenchers.

justasking111 · 08/06/2020 14:45

Wales - 3 more dead, as sad as that is, ffs. Drakeford let us out...

HauntedGoatFart · 08/06/2020 14:46

Dementor Antivenin, aka the actual smoothed picture on deaths and the complete failure of a new peak to materialize despite the many times it's been predicted.

The quarantine policy is just so stupid. We are quietly taking bets on when it will collapse. Hopefully by August - I have no intention of a UK holiday if I can have an overseas one.

Anti dementors flock together
justasking111 · 08/06/2020 14:47

Wales - oh and probably in care homes. Coz over 50% of them have been.

Allflightscancelled · 08/06/2020 14:47

The UK has recorded its lowest daily rise in the number of coronavirus deaths since before lockdown, latest government figures show.

Wohooo!!!! BBC breaking news......

trappedsincesundaymorn · 08/06/2020 14:48

Thank you all for you lovely messages of support, I really needed them. A quick update..I have been invited by the area manager of a hearing charity to apply for a job in her team....it helps that she also happens to be my best mate from our childhood days and has been trying to get me to join her for a while. it does mean a pay cut which was the sole reason it never happened before now. I also have the added bonus of embarrassing of photo's....she had some crazy hair styles. Grin

justasking111 · 08/06/2020 14:49

Watch the dementors say oh but protests mean gazillions will die in a few weeks.

UK number today 55.

enjoyingSun · 08/06/2020 14:51

BBC frontapge website telling me virus deaths drop to pre-lockdown level across whole UK but near ends say it may just be Monday dip in reporting figures and day after locakdown figures went up a lot.

www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-52968160

Every silver lining has a cloud.

justasking111 · 08/06/2020 14:51

Wales - Drakeford was mumbling about if we welsh dared to go abroad we would be isolated for fourteen days when we got back so there!!

Some good news trapped and I’ve got my fingers crossed for you. Flowers
Nihiloxica · 08/06/2020 14:51

Oooh get you, trapped, headhunted mere hours after being made redundant. GrinWink

I'm delighted for you. Smile

Littlebelina · 08/06/2020 14:52

They'll be shouting about weekend lag

(It is a real thing but this Monday's figure is half of last Monday's and I'll take that positive).

Two children in childcare/school today, whoop! Still struggling to concentrate occasionally but life feels more normal

LivinLaVidaLoki · 08/06/2020 14:53

Lowest infection and death rate since lockdown today. I know the deaths usually fall on a monday because of weekend reporting but at 55, that can only be good, right?

justasking111 · 08/06/2020 14:53

I know this is off topic but with the welsh threatening to remove Stanley statue BLM I am kind of glad our art galleries across the UK are closed just in case they decide to spray paint works of art whose artists they consider racists.

SudokuBook · 08/06/2020 14:53

Ahhhh why as a fatty did I read yet another obesity dementoring thread.

Maybe I’m not even actually still alive and I’m just a ghost. Since I’m DEFINITELY GOING TO DIE

enjoyingSun · 08/06/2020 14:53

trappedsincesundaymorn good luck really hope you get the post.

LivinLaVidaLoki · 08/06/2020 14:54

Dammit I was a bit late there wasnt I....

justasking111 · 08/06/2020 14:54

I have the grand kids coming this afternoon and they will be indoors, so expecting the skies to fall in here.

Willow2017 · 08/06/2020 14:56

Way to go Trapped great news.

Just popped on the 'schools' thread and smartly popped off again! WTF? ;
'If schools go back MILLIONS WILL DIE but its ok cos your kids come first' Are these people for real?
Holy Shit this country is doomed!

Yes. It's sensible to look at the seven-day rolling average instead of the daily figure due to weekend delays and other fluctuations, but the 7-day average is steadily downwards and so are the same-day weekly figures, not that Dementors will ever acknowledge that things might actually be getting better as opposed to just getting ready for the DEADLY SECOND WAVE.
