Social distancing, and not only when you went to Rotherham like previously.

I'm really sorry for all those that died or became or permanently disabled due to me and my government's incompetence.

Apologies I could have sworn I heard him say that recently

It would have been nice NOT to politicise yet another thread chaps.

SydneyRover · « **Reply #25 on** October 11, 2020, 09:18:57 am by SydneyRover »

You started a thread on the virus with the gov't responsible for an unmitigated disaster that wil affect millions? it's a bit naive to think that it wouldn't turn political hound. As has been said most were hoping the government would get it right or even close to right and they have made everything political including who locks down or not.

Why aren't you wearing a mask ?

Before cv if I went to the bank with a mask on they wouldn't let me in.

Now if I go without one on they won't let me in.

Going into a bank. There's a phrase I haven't heard in a while.
