O/T:- There is a God

[sidders]

I just find it irksome. Sid is removed from reality. I've lost 95% of my sales in my business in the last 2 weeks ( events related) and had to lay off several staff who I know need the money but I havent got the money to pay them. I have 3 kids to feed and the bills most definately do not stop. I then come on here for a little light relief after most probably one of the worst if not the worst week I have ever had both personally and professionally and see political point scoring posts from people who frankly should know better. The man is so far removed from reality its frightening.

Through what you have told me about your difficulties, I understand your anger and pain. If calling me a moron helps, that's fine. I'll agree to be one.
I take no pleasure in COVID-19, nor am I using it to score political points.
However, as you are an Australian these days, I'm afraid you're the one out of touch with reality. All you have to judge the position in the UK is a few sound bites and news articles.
For me to point out that the Tories have had to lay out more money in the public sector than Labour had budgeted for in the December election is a fact of life. As Elite says, with better judgement in favour of public spending much earlier in the crisis, lives and money would have been saved.
In short, Boris was guilty on a smaller scale of what Trump is hugely guilty of now. Trump's ridiculous posture whereby he rates his hunches as a better guide than the judgements of scientists will hopefully now expose him for the fool he is.
If COVID-19 leads to Trump's defeat then I would say that is one of its few good effects. At least it might give the fight against climate change a chance.
The main lesson from this virus is that we are all dependent on one another and must support each other. That is a basic tenet of socialism so i'm sorry if my saying that this ill wind has blown a tiny bit of good upsets you, Queenie, but that's my opinion. I hope things turn round for you and soon.
El Moron.
