The ventilator fiasco is the best "anti-expert" example so far imo.
-
That cunt at the press conference yesterday said part of the vaccine task force was to ramp up production facilities now rather than when it's ready - actually quite sensible but my entire reaction was "why the fuck didn't you think of this shit in February?" It was also mentioned at that committee thing that they were contact tracing up until March the 12th when it was stopped - another act of fucking idiocy.
-
4 months into this shit and the tories announce a vaccine task force. Fucks sake.
-
Think I've mentioned before, one of the NUFC fans who posts on the SMB had a signature stating that the percentage increase in averages from pre-PL times (think he took ten years) to post (Obviously with their new ground) was a lot larger for them than for us.
-
What they always ignore because it's too painful is the different appeal of the two cities as well. Especially since the Rueben's supposedly want to invest in the city itself - who the fuck would invest in the city of Sunderland? Of course they also can't see the irony in calling us all 92'ers and history forgetters while expecting their 19th century titles to give them some kind of elevated position in the game in the present day.

Newcastle United: Club Sold To PCP - Official
NJS replied to The Mighty Hog's topic in Newcastle Forum
Notice how it's the top 6 now? Used to be the top 4 when the PL started then they were forced to include Man City and maybe us when we were good and Liverpool were shit then Tottenham. They're now in denial about Leicester. Also it gets extended whenever Man Utd finish lower. Doesn't enter their tiny brains that having 8 or 10 genuinely good teams would make it a lot more interesting. -
Is it not just an option in the stock Photos app? Just checked on mine and it seems to be set that way.
-
Well not many people can be arsed to switch off all of the Google shit in Android anyway - if you haven't you can check out your Google timeline and you'll see.
-
To be honest I wouldn't give a fuck if it helped get through this - delete it later.
-
Hancock was full of shit as usual but I found the contact tracing app for NHS staff interesting - at least some fucker is thinking in the right direction. "All" we need now is its general release and the ability to match Germany on testing.
-
I keep thinking/saying that that half arsed two weeks where the blustering buffoon was telling people it might be a good idea to stay at home and Cheltenham went ahead as well as that ridiculous Friday night cost thousands of lives. I hope they pay for it but I doubt it.
-
I asked my parents why Churchill lost - they reckoned the people remembered the lead up to the war and how the tories were - along with the promise of the NHS. I asked why Labour lost in 51 - they reckoned the promise of creating a country fit for heroes hadn't quite worked out - though of course in that election they got more votes than the tories but were undone by the usual votes in the wrong place problem.
-
I agree the social aspect is a concern but on the other hand I gain 2.5 hours a day to spend doing things I like which is another pro.
-
We had a division briefing by the head cheese this week (120 people on teams) where he said how well it was all going, everybody working from home that they were seriously thinking about making it integral post-crisis. He even said they were looking at disinvesting from commercial property as they think WFH will be the norm more and more.
-
That all makes sense if things were as they were in December but I can't help thinking a "steady hand" isn't what will be needed in the next 1/4/8/15 years.
-
There's a suggestion he may go for Warren as VP which would be good in terms of her politics and also of him not lasting 4 or 8 years.
-
Well people like Susan Sarandon telling people to vote for the green candidate meant their vote was significant in a few states - maybe not enough to change the result but when you consider 77k votes in crucial states actually did decide the result then I wouldnt be surprised if dem non-voters were the deciding factor.
-
No, I'm just saying it's what most people would expect but you seemed surprised.
-
Well Biden's main platform is "return to normal" - that's well fucked now.
-
Corrupt son, lock him up, rinse and repeat.
-
I'd add that I agree it's going to get nasty - you have to hope we develop a vaccine because we'll have three hopes of getting it off the US, EU or anywhere else.
-
You've always been a bit overboard in your love of the EU, Rayvin - you can strongly believe we would have remained while accepting it was/is deeply flawed. Of course we should have stayed and campaigned for reform but I still think you're a bit idealistic.
-
When we went to psv the first time and we ended up in Amsterdam wandering around the red light district drinking we spotted Roy Hodgson in a flasher mac looking very furtive - either going to or coming from somewhere in a hurry.
-
The bastard in me does find it amusing that he's spent years of effort striving for this one job which might only end up lasting 6 months.
-
I dislike the bloke intensely but he's not in Ashley/Thatcher territory.
