Waiting for companies to start cancelling their dividends left right and centre. I don't see how they can justify it now if, as seems likely, so many ask for handouts. Will likely mean significant changes to the jobs done by some folk I work with.

Stock exchange should be suspended too.  It is being manipulated by speculators.

A drop of 35% in share price one day followed by a 25% increase the following day is not a reflection of a company’s performance or worth.

Good news for anyone on the dole, no need to sign on for 3 months, no gestapo interrogations, no sanctions.

Source? Not doubting you just sounds almost too good to be true and would like a link to share with a couple of folk i know, dont want to get hopes up too early without trying to confirm

Announced on BBC News coronavirus special before Bojo's presser. Will try to find a link, no gestapo or sanctions was my extrapolation, news was just no signing on or visits to the job centre.

We'll that's Mrs Romeo ready for an apocalyptic lockdown .

Just in from spending £100+ on getting her nails and hair done.

Fucking idiot.
Seems to be a thing, the Mrs was showing me adverts her beautician pals had been putting on Facebook for deals on last minute "Lockdown Makeovers"!

Don’t know if it’s been mentioned, but more Italian deaths than Chinese now.  How the f**k was that allowed to happen in Italy?

The only explanation I heard was that they had a great deal of elderly folk, a lot of people still living with their parents, and, in somewhat clumsy sounding terms, a far more touchy-feely, kissy on the cheek type of society. A lot more physical contact which passed it on.

How much of that is true, fecked if I know.

I fucking wish!!! I won't mention the value of this order but it is several times larger than any order I've ever seen in over 3 years in there.
