He’s such an idiot.
Yes and he is advised by this weird health guru in a tank top
. Anti Vax and his wife tried to link Covid-19 with 5G conspiracy theory too .

Did you hear about Novak Djokovic and his stupid Adria Tennis Tour ?
Now he and many people who played / attended the matches are infected .
No mask wearing / social distancing . Went out drinking and clubbing . Played basketball . Lots of hugging and body contacts . Stands were packed full of spectators .
“We organized the tournament at the moment when the virus has weakened, believing that the conditions for hosting the Tour had been met.”
Like WHERE has it weakened ? With players flying in from all over the world including the US .
“We believed the tournament met all health protocols and the health of our region seemed in good condition to finally unite people for philanthropic reasons. We were wrong and it was too soon. I can’t express enough how sorry I am for this and every case of infection.” - because there was NO heath protocol whatsoever .
Djokovic flew from Zadar , Croatia to Belgrade , Serbia where he was tested at the airport with his wife and they both tested positive for the virus .
God knows how many people they had infected along the way .
Madness .

Her view on the issue is quite regressive . I'm sorry she was sexually assaulted and have had to experience domestic violence at a hand of a man I presumed .
She can advocate for women / girl' s right to safety but don't bring trans people into it . They are not making you less of a woman and more importantly they are not
dictating on how YOU should live your life so why do you think it's your business to tell them how they should live theirs ?
JK says she support safety of trans women , at the same time she thinks their basic human rights should be denied .The right to be who they are .
How does she view trans women's position in society ?
How can we protect women and girls AS WELL AS trans women and other marginalised minority groups who deserve equal rights to safety and shouldn't be denied
the basic human rights that can be afforded to everyone else .
Trans people face discriminations , sexism , hate crimes and in worse cases they get killed ( 331 + trans were killed in 2019 worldwide ,compared to 369 in 2018 ) .
( I'm not even going to go into the gay movement / trans movement that leads to pedophilia or children are being forced into transitioning etc which is completely
crazy , based on unrealistic statistics and will make everything worst for ALL of us as a human race.)

The speech "but I don't want natal women and children be less safe" equals the line "the family will disappear if gay marriage is approved". As if the existence of one thing put the other in danger.
Pure TRANSPHOBIA disguised as feminism.
I'm glad you're being so supportive for your friend , Butterbabe
YES ! My jaw kind of hit the floor when I read that. Try replacing the word trans with homosexual and we, might be back in the dark ages .
And no this is not some ' woke ' shit . We have to evolve as people . Not too long ago same sex marriage was not even an option so what is the difference between supporting trans
community and support gay community or any other minority community for that matter . It does no harm to the straight community .
You don't die because you're straight but you have higher risk of being killed when you're trans so I find JK's view to be a little limited and not all that worldly .
It's quite amazing when you think who SHE IS and how HUGE her platform is .
-
I'm disappointed but not surprised by JK. She's been saying some problematic shits for a few years now.
I'm a gay man and I'd NEVER understood the struggle of trans people . I just didn't think the trans world existed . I didn't and refused to understand it .
Until a year 1/2 ago one of my male friends told me he was in the process of transitioning . He is now a she . At 39 .
Now everyday I'm leaning about the trans community and their struggle and for JK to be saying shit like she would have been forced by social / peer pressure to transition if she had been
born 30 years later is just beyond ignorant . No JK you would still be a WOMAN . It just means that now people have the freedom to choose and they have a choice and they can make
that choice without being KILLED ( BUT they are still being killed though ) . It doesn't mean we see the struggle of women any less or that women will be less safe . It just means
that now more people ( trans , women , kids ) will ALL BE SAFE .
When I read this ( that she wrote ) my heart just sank . Why can't we fight for trans' right and women's right at the same time ? I don't get it .
"So I want trans women to be safe. At the same time, I do not want to make natal girls and women less safe. When you throw open the doors of bathrooms and changing rooms to any man who believes or feels he’s a woman – and, as I’ve said, gender confirmation certificates may now be granted without any need for surgery or hormones – then you open the door to any and all men who wish to come inside. That is the simple truth,"
And many Harry Potter stars have come out to support the Trans community which am glad to see.

Well my only consolation is that Scotland can continue down a different path, and I hope we do.
Maybe N.Ireland can find the backbone to stop stop being a colony and join the rest of their country, and I don't know much about Wales politically except they still seem to have an affinity for Labour despite it getting them nowhere for decades - which leaves England to continue down the path of becoming the gross infected arsehole of Europe if they so choose.
A sad state of affairs, but it is what it is.
I think that will happen sooner than we think because of the UK government's piss poor management of Covid-19 as well as Brexit .

Everything that wasn't even minimally considered in Italy or Spain and France too if I'm not mistaken. It's just crazy. Either you impose a lockdown in its actual implications or you don't at all. It's useless to have a mild if not blatantly false one.
Or having in place a system made of rules for the powerful and another one for "the commoners", yet they would never have the temerity of saying they drove 40 miles to a beauty spot or historical site to check on their eyesight and telling it to tens of millions at home and overseas, certainly not with Cummings almost straight face, despite the stuttering
And still be shamelessly backed by your "employer", though one may argue that the UK government is an employee of Mr Cummings and not the other way around
It's really odd actually . Even now am confused because half of the US seems to be in lockdown but the other half is off to the beach . In Asia we were applauding Singapore then they had a relapsed and the numbers went to by the many hundreds per day . We got scared ( in my country ) real quick . I'm crossing my fingers for no second wave but I think one has to get one's head around the fact that this is the new normal .
The tragic joke is the WHO has come out TODAY to say that wearing mask is essential when out is public . I mean no shit . Are they for real ?????
12 minutes ago, Kim said:Jezza's long gone and been replaced with a new Labour leader. He manages to skewer Bozo when they face off during PMQS but apart from that has been pretty much absent throughout as he slowly starts to maneuver the party back to the right. There's no saving the UK.
That's not depressing at all is it ??? My UK friends have divided into two camps .For Boris and Against Boris but not into Labour either .

^^^ from the original one
A total nonsense and downgrade move
A real scam
They must think people are stupid
Stay fucking home or you get fined except for groceries and chemist trips. It was that simple in Italy and Spain. Parks and dubious government approved eyesight tests are off limits and OBVIOUSLY out of the question if a lockdown needs to have a meaning and efficacy to begin with, especially when you're forcing it onto an entire country population
Yet the British political class have this persistent holier than thou attitude towards countries like Italy, Spain, Portugal and IMF ravaged Greece all the damn time
It was so confusing . When the virus was spreading in UK my friend could still go to the dentist ( and he bloody well went ! ) .
Football matches were still being held . I knew that because I'd bought tickets for my customers to go watch one of the matches and couldn't get
a refund because the organiser insisted that the match was still going to happen .
Boris is a joke but I can't see the majority of the people getting behind Jeremy Corbyn either .

There was never a lockdown in the true sense of the word. One period of outside exercise per day was permitted as well as trips out for food or medicine with a reminder to socially distance
Anyway, another 357 UK deaths in the last 24hrs, more than all the EU countries COMBINED.
Good going Bozo!
And the Dominic Cummings story has disappeared .

Has anyone read the putrid conspiracy theories about this ? All from the same group who worship Trump. Because I work with people that are hard core conspiracy theorists, have been sent their version of truth
they believe George Floyd and the policeman who killed him are trained crisis actors who put it all on so that they can rubbish Trump and cost him the election. They say that the black people protesting are mainly elites who want Trump out of office and covid does not exist. They hate all media and adore Trump.
Pathetic people that call everyone else “ sheep” and are now saying race discrimination does not exist, never has and all has been staged for years. They are truly insane.
I've not heard the George Floyd's conspiracy theory but some friends in UK told me that covid-19 was a conspiracy that was cooked up by China to try and get into our data/ personal infos .
Also that Italy had wanted to get rid of their senior citizens for years so they wouldn't have to pay for pensions , healthcare etc so they didn't try to stop the spread of the virus
I couldn't believe my ears . It was bat-shit crazy .
And these people will have combat answers for your every questions /arguments .

No, please lock up the WHOLE fucking family. I don't want a see any of them for the rest of my life. Because let there be no illusion here, when we get rid of the Cheetos-in-chief we are going to have his horrible and just as stupid offspring who will infiltrate the high spheres of power and will try their luck for the presidential in the future.
I always forget about Don Jr and ...Eric . Their combined IQs is probably lower than room temperature .

Jail.
If he's not elected again in November, he's up for indictment in relation to the Michael Cohen case, remember that? He violated campaign finance law but the office he currently holds protects him from indictment. He needs to win again so the statute of limitations kicks in. If he loses his only hope is a pardon which Biden says he won't give but we'll see.
The rest of his family should live in shame.I forgot to add tyranny to my list .
Jail ? Would like to see that and please lock up Jared Kushner and his Karen wife as well .

It's been hard but we made it!!!!
Yeah ! Spain and Italy had like one of the toughest lockdowns I think . Am a bit confused at UK. Did they have a proper lockdown or not ? Two of my friends there had completely different experiences during UK lockdown. One stayed in her house with family for months and the other one was taking his dog for walks daily and was chatting to other dog walkers .
Confusing message from PM perhaps ?

I wonder how he ,his wife and his children will live after his presidency has ended.
His run has been nothing but an overlonged reality horror show .
What legacy will he be leaving behind except hatred , death , racism and cowardice .

I remember UK allows dual citizenship.
I don't know but I'm fine with my Thai passport . I love the UK though but I don't think I want to live anywhere else but Thailand .
Brexit however took me by surprised and I was shocked to see some of my friends voted to leave the EU and most of them ( if not all ) ended up regretting their decisions .

Anyone would die for a British citizenship.
Just ask anyone from Hong Kong.
Not me.... lol
I did become a resident because you get that offer when I've spent around 12-15 years in UK but when I hit my 20th year I knew I was going to go home so I didn't even bother applying .
In 1997 , the year HK was being handed back to China there was so much anger and confusion . People were scrambling to get out of HK . UK , I think , had one of the toughest policies regarding immigration and Canada ( the 3 countries people most wanted to migrate to were UK, USA and Canada ) was easier to migrate to .
If I remember correctly if you have a specific jobs ( like if you're a doctor , lawyer , have money to invest etc ) it was very easy for you to just move to Canada from Hong Kong .

Talk about clutching at straws. Talk about lying through your teeth. That Scummings press conference was comic and painful to watch at the same time
They must think people are stupid or something. They are trying their best to silence the whole thing. But it will inevitably come back to haunt them and bite them in the ass. Very very soon.
Particularly because over three months since the start of the emergency the UK still has the highest rate of infections and daily deaths in Europe and after the US is the second most
affected country in the world, proportionally it's actually the first
Yet they'd rather open everything now because they are panicking about the economy, an inflated economy whose bubble is about to explode, and that would have happened even without this latest global sanitary emergency
The UK doesn't produce anything anymore (thanks to people like Thatcher and Blair), it is not an industrial power in Europe, the only thing they have is the City of London, but that only works within a EU membership scenario.
Anyone who voted leave has basically contributed to bringing in the final death knell for the economic outlook of the country without realising it, and there's no trade deal with either the US or former colonies that's going to save it, contrary to what many people think
Why do you see those prices in terms of rent and buying in London? Not just because it's "a big city that everyone flocks to". It's one gigantic bubble waiting to explode
England as a whole is however a very different story from London. So much poverty that has accrued over the years
I'm glad that so many local authorities in other parts of England are opposing and challenging N10 over Monday's reopening of primary schools
As @Kim says, the people running the show right now are incompetent bastards and that is all there is to say about them. They make Theresa May's government seem shiny and new
The fact that they had to buy sub-standard PPE kits from Turkey says it all.
The Cummings interview I found very insulting . The fact that he didn't even have to hold that stupid press conference but he did and chose to insult the public's intelligence
with the most ridiculous lies is pretty shocking . The eye sight test drive being the worst . I mean you have covid-19 so you decide to go for a test drive with your wife and child presumably
as crash dummies ?
I lived in UK and mostly London for 20 + years and I love the UK but I don't recognise it anymore .
Brexit was a real shocker to me because the Leave campaign was based on big fat lies and people kind of bought into it .

Cold blooded murder . I'm disgusted . USA is on fire. I think state of emergency will be declared in many States.

Cummings telling reporters "It's not about what you think". What a fucking sad arrogant prick
The castle looks so much better when you have Covid-19 and while you're driving to test your eyesight with your wife and child as crash dummies .
That interview he gave made the whole thing worse.

Can't they just give Summer 2020 a big MISS ??? I don't get it . Headlines - Thousands of deaths . Reality - People rushing to the beaches .
We are in Phase 2 with phase 3 easing being announced within this week .
I walked past many restaurants yesterday and a table for TWO has clear partition stand in the middle of a table .
People are putting on face mask ( with fashionable prints - not the N95 medical kind as they are for front liners ) and face shields ( have to be FDA approved design )
, disposable latex gloves galore.
If you're out WITHOUT a mask people will look at you like you have leprosy and you'll not be allowed into most places .Not into convenient stores , malls, restaurants
and most buildings .
My yoga studio is going to open next week but we have to keep our mats at 2 meters apart and the numbers of people will be limited ( from the usual 30 to 14 ) .
There will only be verbal correction and adjustment with no touching of any kind. Teacher will wear face shield / Mask . We have to bring our own towels / mats and
hygiene wipe / sanitizer
Until there's a vaccine this is life in Thailand .
