If happy little bluebirds fly... hard to post on here anymore with writs from mike and roly flying right left and centre. Oh well. Don't matter as all the fun, all the wit and all the laughs have been driven off. Sorry, Cam, but you should have banned these pr*cks years ago.

On another note:

Is it the beginning of the end for the EU??

Squabbling over of how aid/help should be distributed and on what terms.

Looks like everyone is stumped over this virus.

Stick or twist time. Lockdown or not?

Definitely pressure building on all the major EU quangos Howdy, Germany are stating to relent a bit on Aid as opposed to Bond issues. The bond issues are great for Germany but not for Greece, Spain or Italy who have to pay a higher rate of interest ensuring Germany hold a competitive advantage. The ECB were discussing purchasing junk bonds to help certain countries out and also changing the rules on investing grade Angel bonds

One idea was perpetual bonds where you only pay interest but not the capital for ever, not sure how this will effect the ratings?

Italy's debt to GDP could rise from 134 to 180 ....Greece is already at 180 before any new measures

Germany is 62% hence the top rating

Only a matter of time now I think Howdy...this crisis may well speed it up tho...

Also looks like the yanks have made a interesting Discovery.
Temperature of 70f with the addition of UV at levels we see in the summer kills covid 19 inside 2 minutes.

It always worries me when I see someone stood alongside that bloke with the funny orange face and hairstyle. The very bloke who was lauding a drug which has now been found to cause more deaths in patients with COVID-19 than patients who weren't given it.

Trump has suggested that directly injecting disinfectant into people could be a cure for coronavirus (see BBC News website for details). Expect USA hospitals to be overwhelmed by cases of self-poisoning next. The man is a complete idiot. Knowing nothing about a subject, never stops him from shooting his mouth off and getting things completely wrong.

To be fair it never did Father Jack any harm!

The man is a feckin idiot...every day he comes out with summat more stupid. He is not the man to lead a country at a time of global crisis like this but hey ho if the yanks are daft enough to back him...we have our very own version on a smaller scale...
