The city I live (Wakefield) has put in a bid for City of Culture 2025. Being that it's the only place where I've seen somebody squat down and take a dump in the street, I suspect we won't win.

It's still up 43% week-on-week which means the peak prediction of it exceeding the last one is on track for hitting middle of July.

Kidding yourself if you think 19th July will be the time to open everything up - not that I think there won't be huge pressure to do so even if the numbers are stupidly high still. And we've potentially got the Delta Plus variant waiting in the wings too (no solid info as to whether it will be an additional problem yet as there's not enough data to say).Last edited by MartyG; 24-06-2021, 15:24.

No matter how much time passes and how many cycles we go through it still never ceases to amaze that as case numbers begin to rise at such a pace the only discussion going on is about how to further remove restrictions and accelerate that issue. The sheer lack of learning and common sense is back breaking and I'm not even talking about the Government - I expect them to make the wrong call every time now - but almost every media outlet, pundit etc is so focused on holidays and isolation rules etc with no room at all for talking about the sheer fact this isn't how things work and this winter is going to b**** slap this country into reality again at this rate but most damningly this will have been the most avoidable loss of jobs, freedoms and in some cases lives of the whole pandemic.

Obviously this is great for jokes, but the thing to stop and think about the content of the story, it's to think about the context of why it's being released now.
Ever since Cummings slated Hancock in his recent one-man show (notably never once criticising Gove), it feels like the writing is on the wall for him and he's going to get thrown under a bus (the Conservatives love a bus, preferably with a slogan on the side).
This video footage is over a month old and The Sun have been sat on it since then.
You have to ask what are we NOT looking at, whilst we're laughing and making HandOnCock jokes?
