Re: COVIDD-19 'Pandemic'

The headline fact checker took wrong number. He should have said GLOBAL TOTAL CASES APPROACHES THREE MILLION PEOPLE (2,964,543).

This is why the fake news, scaremongering, lamestream media is so unpopular in the UK at the moment, according to polls.

Whereas Boris has the highest poll ratings of probably any British PM ever.

I think in this case it was a simple error. The numbers are right on the screen.


And unusual times do tend to favour the governing party/PM/president of any country/state/province. Not surprised Boris is doing well (although he was doing good going into the pandemic too).

Coronavirus will hasten the decline in the use of cash as people make a long-term switch to digital payments, experts say.

Who still uses cash??

Alot of places refuse cash now...... as they should.


No one around my area is refusing cash - not the stores, not the gas stations - nowhere - nor should they.

Well he did the deed several months before the Wuflu came along.

Having said that, having children is nothing new to our Boris. He's got a lot of lead in his pencil.

Ya right, unless you're too stupid to read the entire screen. Are you too stupid to read the entire screen?

No, of course not.

There's nothing stupid, naive and gullible about me.

Re: COVIDD-19 'Pandemic'

Some in Calgary are refusing cash.
Stores here ......are refusing cash . Not a biggie.

Cash is actually quite dirty. ........ when one thinks about it..

No contact carding is "healthier" Lower risk of bug transmission .............and much more efficient. (IMHO)

If I went into a shop, took an item to the till and the shopkeeper said they aren't accepting cash, I'll just put the stuff back and shop elsewhere.

If they want to make less money, then I don't have a problem with that.

The ironic thing is, viruses struggle to survive on coins.

Re: COVIDD-19 'Pandemic'

And your point is.....what.....that we should pay for everything with nickels, dimes, and quarters?

Not in Britain. We use pounds and pence here.

If you want to try paying for your Quad Ristretto Iced Venti Whole Milk Organic 3 Pump Vanilla 2 Pump Cinnamon Dolce Extra Hot with Foam and Whipped Cream Upside Down Stirred Latte with Eswatinian lilangeni then go ahead.
