@divegeester saidBiffo plonker?a new name for Boris?
Perhaps you should ask German residents. I’m sure Biffo Plonker will be around at some point to offer some glib europillic anti-British perspectives.
Anyway on another note, the uk has just purchased 30 million doses of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine; how’s the EU’s negotiation on that one working out?
I was just thinking.
The UK, besides vaccinations does have other good points:
- fish and chips
- bacon butties
- cadbury’s cream eggs
So there you go. Britain does rule the waves!
Well, besides that the fishing industry’s collapsing because of Brexit.
Well, and that the bacon generally comes from Denmark and is becoming problematic. Due to Brexit.
At least the bloody cream eggs will stay available!

@kmax87 saidAn over reliance on common sense coupled with a tendency toward self deprecation on my part? 🙃
Yes I totally understand where you are coming from. It's a dangerous game bragging in the face of another's misfortune. It tempts fate and hubris can be a very unkind master.
BTW how come I'm under the impression you were an Aussie?

@instantkarma777 saidCorrect instantkarma we have to keep in mind that there are forces afoot in our part of the world who would love to have us at each others throats.
Kev,
You're right.
We have idiots running things here too.
But there is a light at the end of the tunnel now.
With 3 or 4 vaccines on the way and some already rolled out.
I await my turn and hope you have your turn also.
Let us be kind to each other and wish each other well.
We are all stronger together as decent human beings.
Forget politics.
...[text shortened]... ders in 1916.
We must move forward and stretch arms across the sea.
We can be better together.
We must resist tribalism, especially important for our shared goal of the reunification of your island and good neighbourliness on mine.

@shavixmir saidSince Brexit, there has been no cliff-edge we were warned repeatedly to expect. Instead, we had the flexible surefootedness to secure and rollout vaccinations while the EU fell over its own feet, and currently, the pound is on the way up.

And yep, we do great chips.
@shavixmir saidYou’re upset because I pointed out what a crap state your country is in.
