Our EU friends 13:16 - Apr 10 with 6728 views | BlueNomad | The German Army are bringing us ventilators. Is the irony of this lost on the little-England, bigoted, “two world wars and one World Cup, let’s get Brexit done, Brussels dictatorship” crowd? Ok - rhetorical question. Thank you Germany and EU for your continued friendship despite the ill-will expressed by people allegedly acting in my name. |  | | |  |

Our EU friends on 18:29 - Apr 10 by GlasgowBlue | I didn’t vote in the last election. Did you vote for the racist who wanted to disband NATO? |
Still peddling that racist line after he pressured the government to take action in all this, aye? Seems political point scoring is only an issue when it makes you ask yourself difficult questions in recent weeks. But we already all knew that. |  |

Our EU friends on 18:24 - Apr 10 by GlasgowBlue | Don’t put yourself down. I don’t think you are thick. I just think you are a political opportunist who is using this dreadful pandemic to score a few cheap political points and failing miserably. |
If you read the OP properly, I have to say, I think you have misconstrued it, and jumped in to score TWTD points. |  | |  |

I promised myself I wouldn’t reply to you. I failed miserably.. I now have a choice. Crack open another bottle or argue the toss with you? Bye. |  |

When Glassers is leaving sarky remarks to people and hiding you know he’s having a battle with his own views. Good luck with it, may you come out the other side more informed. |  |

Our EU friends on 18:30 - Apr 10 by Swansea_Blue | Only 60 is still peeing in the wind. I wonder how much difference the EU procurement scheme will have made. It'll be interesting to see what happens when those orders start materialising compared to what we manage without. That's probably a true test of what we can achieve as an "independent nation" [Gove, about 2 weeks ago]. |
I’m pretty sure Hancock said we have more ventilators Waiting to be used than in previous days. Why do people want to dwell in the recent past and refuse to move on. The political point has been made, too many times, a point which, going forward, is no longer valid. |  |

People have still died from the fact we shouldn’t be in this position and we’re playing catch up though. I won’t be forgetting that. |  |

He’s had too many and is at me in another thread now without even needing my help. Perhaps tell your mate he’s had enough and take him home before the bouncers throw him out ;) |  |

There was no excuse for how late and slow we locked down, despite every bit of spin to make it seem like it was planned. “Herd immunity” got us here. |  |

I feel the thinking was that if we went into lockdown to early people would get bored & not take to much notice of it. Boris catching it probably made a few people wake up to the threat. I live near Grafham Water, last week they were asking cars with bikes on them to go home. Today was very quite |  | |  |

Our EU friends on 13:29 - Apr 10 by monytowbray | I saw this last night. My instant reaction was LOL as that’s all you can do. “Cutting nose off in spite of face” was a phrase I used a lot in relation to Brexit. Now we have immigrants dying to save our lives and Farage/Hopkins/Tommeh have gone very quiet on the xenophobic-to-those-on-our-doorstep front. Imagine how much better equipped we’d be if we paid junior doctors well and didn’t actively try to put foreign health workers off from coming here? |
Imagine if the race to the bottom hadn't led to zero bursaries to pay for the training of doctors and nurses. |  |

Our EU friends on 15:20 - Apr 10 by monytowbray | It’s a country that are being good to us after we decided to waver free movement to work in each other’s nations and hamper trade with. I feel the post is still relevant. We p1ssed on a lot of doorsteps with Brexit and when you see news like this it makes me wonder how the British population managed to lose so much humanity. Then I remember the answer to that question is years of neoliberalism causing social problems that can be blamed on foreigners. [Post edited 10 Apr 2020 15:21]

Can those doctors and health workers make ventilators? |  |

So who are you blaming for that? The Chief Medical & Scientific Officer’s or the Govt which takes their advice? I am not putting blame on either because I do believe that they are all trying their best!but looking at the pictures from Brighton yesterday is that people taking lockdown advice seriously? These are the people that are going to keep this going longer than it should. |  | |  |

If you care so much why don’t you get of your backside put some clothes on, switch your computer off and go and do something useful like offer help to some vulnerable old people or sick people maybe drop them some food or medicine off, or offer your skills and amazing wisdom to the Care sector rather than sitting on here spouting BS all day.....you are sad. |  | |  |

Would you really want to inflict Callis on our sick or the people doing their very best to care for them? He’d be running around the hospital screaming “ You're all going to die and it’s the fault of the Tories” Badger suggested a role for him. Already talk of prioritising NHS patients by BlueBadger 18 Mar 2020 13:28Honestly, if I was running a cardiac arrest with TWTD posters as my team, Callis would get the designated role of 'second runner'. Thats the role you give to someone flapping all over the place and stopping everyone else doing their job, so you send them off to the far side of the building to look for a piece of kit you know either doesn't exist or is very difficult to find. |  |

Yes, being asthmatic and throwing myself into risk would be a good idea wouldn’t it? But you already knew that, don’t let it get in the way of scoring some TWTD points though. Why do you think I decided to stay in whilst the government decided folk like me potentially dying is a risk worth taking for the banks? |  |

No one has died due to the lack of a ventilator. |  |
