One thing this pandemic has brought to my attention is that it's just a reminder of how selfish and single minded folk in this country have become. The legacy of the Thatcher government I dare say. I find it repulsive, tha thinks back to war times and rationing, folk wi an indomitable spirit keeping the country going together as a unit. They'll be disgusted to see what the mentality has become today
Read something this afternoon about the blitz in London during the second world war .

Unfortunately people looted from bombed out homes and stole from the dead and injured .

The black market thrived with essentials sold at high end prices .

Good and bad everywhere but the bad seems to be the bigger news story .

People really do need to get a grip in the supermarket or they will have that grip imposed on them , quicker than they realise .
