Southend,Scotland,east Anglia etc etc etc this past weekend.
People being thick and stupid c***s basically nationwide.

Exactly I don’t live in London but to blame London for the lockdown is extraordinary. West Sussex beach closed on Sunday due to overcrowding, why is this London’s fault? The country in general has its share of morons

May I enquire as to the location of this beach ?

My local beach is never ever over-populated even in the heat of the summer.As part of my daily exercise I have walked on the pebbles twice recently and it has been deserted with just a dog walker here and there.There were a few kite surfers just off the shore.Lovely day today, blue sky and sun so I will exercise on the beach again today.

I was thinking today about the history defining events I've been alive to see.

1982 Falklands
1990 Gulf War
1991 Fall of USSR
2001 9/11 Afgan war
2003 Iraqi war
2008 Crash
2011 Arab spring/Syrian war
2019 Wuhan flu.


None of which really compares with the 2005 winning of the Ashes of course.

How would you call The Falklands War history defining? Thatcher’s defining moment, holding onto power comfortably to continue the beginning of her long reign?

If the PFA Chief thinks foootball will be given the go ahead to play games behind closed doors at any time in the near future he must be living on a different planet.

For me as a pre-teen growing up in a military family it was an introduction to a modern Britain willing to be aggressive on the world stage.

They aren't idiots, this isn't the black death. 95 percentage of all world cases are mild.

Destroying economies however....when you're all going to revert back to normal eventually....that could be said to be overly alarmist.

Most people on Bondi Beach are idiots anyway. Especially the ones who have highlights put in their hair so they look like surfers. They have the intellectual capacity of a backward capybara.

It's about how a nation sees itself, back in the eighties the British weren't as beaten down as they are now.

Fighting the Falklands war was a huge risk for many reasons...losing a carrier would have ended it. However an individual like Thatcher was always going to fight it if there was a chance of winning.

Once we could get enough troops on the island it wasn't even going to be a contest.

All true.....but how much skirt did those boneheads get compared to you or me? I didn't do that badly back in the day but you know what I mean.

All relative in some senses.....Evolution doesn't reward the smartest or strongest but the most well adapted.

Looking good is a huge life advantage.

All of those idiots may well survive Coronavirus but they would have all infected each other and then gone home and infected their parents and grandparents, killing them in the process
