Todd_is_God Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Here is their up to date graph of their hilarious projection for the UK. The government threw them a bone and included care home deaths after they published it and they are still an absolute mile out 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm afraid that the Big Boomer Book of Liberal Exceptionalism doesn't actually cut it against pesky things like i) facts and ii) historical perspective. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacksgranda Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 There seems to be a lot more traffic on the road this last three days, judging by what I see from the living room window. This lockdown is just going to collapse and four/five weeks from now infections/hospital admissions/deaths will start to climb again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 There seems to be a lot more traffic on the road this last three days, judging by what I see from the living room window. This lockdown is just going to collapse and four/five weeks from now infections/hospital admissions/deaths will start to climb again.Took the kids a walk today. Seen multiple cars occupied by groups of folk including a van with 3 young guys in the front seat. Loads of traffic in general. Lots of folk out on their daily exercise no doubt due to the weather but theres simply no doubt about folk relaxing the rules themselves now. Have heard a few examples recently from folk I consider to be sensible about going round to a mates garden with cans and chairs and sitting 2 metres apart. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
