Apparently the SAGE modelling used to justify the extension posits 250k cases per day (central estimate) if June 21 went ahead as planned. The upper estimate was 350k per day.

Tennis poshos just bat it away with their privately educated sense of superiority 🎾

Mind you, if England makes the final of the Euros (don’t laugh), I’d be willing to bet ‘The Science’ goes out the window to allow full crowds at Wembley

Covid-19 lacks the necessary social skills to infect tennis fans - FACT!

What the country needs now is a rambling, incoherent and incompetent oaf, stumbling over his words because he has no idea what he's talking about.

KD - I bet the Pimms will flow no problem too, unlike the ban on beer on the terraces 🤷🏻‍♂️

keely - because of the admittedly ineffectual opposition, simple really 💁🏻‍♂️ Corbyn too radical left, Sir Kier too many splinters in his bottom.

Better class of person at tennis, innit. Not like us football oiks.

A4E How did the Tories gather a 81 seat majority?

Saveloy - that is because the majority of people at Wimbledon tennis finals are already double jabbed.

Spit - have you done a survey? 😂 Plenty of people were obviously duped by BJ’s hail fellow well met character, but he left the city in a dreadful state, and now he’s done it to the whole country, but go ahead and worship his business prowess (which doesn’t exist). Khan is unpopular for all sorts of reasons 🤔 yet he still somehow beat the weaker Tory opponent in the election - how? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Dought - it isn't the numbers of deaths it is the potential for more infections which increases the potential for more deaths if we all start mixing normally again

Doughty - Public opinion supports lockdown, so we have lockdown. In many US states, eg Texas, they don’t. So they don’t. In California, they do. So they do.

A4E go up to london and ask businesses who they think is the better mayor. 😂

*Spit (not Silk) 🤪🤦🏻‍♂️

Bit harsh Silk, but not surprising you took the bait - keely, swings and roundabouts, BJ left London with a mahoosive deficit, already cut by £700m, obviously involving unpopular measures, but in reality you must blame the previous incumbent for his flagrant squandering of funds on vanity projects, including tens of millions on things that never even came to fruition. Wasting money is something the super-rich are good at, especially when it’s not their money (cf £37bn TTT&I).

I don’t care about the union. We voted, comprehensively, to leave Europe. If Scotland want to leave the U.K. they should be allowed to do so. Life will go on. No point repeating the ludicrous scaremongering and lies from both sides during Brexit. If the union behaves better then people wouldn’t even consider leaving. But it hasn’t because that’s not how the ruling classes work. So fuck em.

OK so explain how on the day the UK registers 3 Covid deaths, the Govt continues with restrictions until late July.....and then almost certainly beyond that date. To put things in perspective, around 450 died today of cancer. Wake up fellas.

Sa dick Khan, rescued London's ecomony? you must be joking. Putting up the cost of deliveries throughout London just puts up costs!

Great news about the Tennis,might get some customers.

A4E, sometimes your post are as delusional as Doughty 😂

Agree with Trigs. There’s nowhere else for Tory voters to go as Labour committed suicide by electing Jeremy Corbyn.

TF - Even though I do not agree with his political stance I like the demeanour of Ian Blackford of the SNP. He sounds to me that he speaks from the heart whereas Starmer seems to be calculating what he says from whatever focus group Labour are listening to this week.

Just in case you thought the messages weren't mixed enough already: Wimbledon tennis finals to be played in front of capacity crowd despite happening before the new freedom day

Silk - I imagine that if Labour were in any fit state to challenge then the governing party would flip red and blue each election for the foreseeable future. Fact is they are so far off being perceived as electable that it does the country no favours regardless of political stance as the Conservatives don’t have to be very good to still be the clear choice.
