More on Boris; He sure didn't get it from a hair dresser!

Dear Paul,

No it wasn't his hairdresser, this is where he got it and likely transmitted it to others;

What is it with these right wing twits? So keen not to scare the horses which might impact the precious economy that they try and act blase.

Something for the drinkers.

600 liquor stores have been closed in Pennsylvania as part of the non-essential business closures considered necessary by authorities. Some "experts" have decided that "health problems could occur because of the blanket shutdowns, prompting the governor to revisit the decision. He now thinks the closure could be "a health issue for those with a substance use disorder.”

He is, of course, talking about problems of withdrawal boozers could have if they can't get their drug. We have seen the frenzy at bottle shops here, when drinkers - who would undoubtedly deny that their drug of choice is not essential to them, started stocking up when it was rumoured that bottle shops would be closed.

And, of course, there is nothing like the methadone used to help hard drug users for people hooked on grog. The government booze police in Pennsylvania say that, "Withdrawal itself is not life-threatening, but complications such as convulsions, epileptic seizures and cardiac arrhythmias can be deadly".

The China virus is certainly spotlighting many societal problems that are covered up or denied in normal times.

Can't agree ttbn, at least in retrospect.

I was always pretty anti Joh until he went, & we found out what a really great job he had done for Queensland. After him the money wasted by those that followed, & the stuff ups were a true revelation of just how good Joh was.

Currently we have the worse ever, even worse than the Bligh woman, with the big heifer leading the hopeless girls club. It is hard to know which is more hopeless, her, the lady in NSW, the idiot in Vic., but we can at least thank heaven, we aren't saddled with a total ratbag like the poor kiwis.

Hasbeen,

Maybe if they had put you in a cell with Sir Terence Lewis for a few weeks it migt have hardened your view of Joh 'He who talks funny'.

Hi Steele, could not agree more, like Trump, like Morrison, its money first, peoples lives second. Same is true for Boris.

Something of interest, watched an old 'Timelife' doco on 'The Great Plague of 1665' (a bit depressing). Although 400 years ago, and modern society has progressed in so many ways, but the basic reaction from the London citizenry and authority then, was not that dissimilar to today's reaction to coronavirus.

ttbn. looks like your man Trump and the gang have made the China Virus, the All American Virus, they got to be bigger and better than everyone else. Don't forget your hero will have it all honky-dory in time for the Easter Bunny in two weeks time.
