Not many have thought through the impact of an extended lock down. Most people have stopped paying mortgages, rent, bills, etc here. There will be massive bankruptcies and defaults on loans soon, it will make 2009 look like a picnic.

Some lads on here want to see the world burn.
Patience. Not patients.
We need to remain zen
This too shall pass.

I can act as the recruitment agency
Met a fella this morning coming back from a lorry run to the UK. Left London yesterday evening (bank holiday Friday) straight onto the M25 and didn’t hit the brakes til he met the ferry. Came from Rosslare this morning and met two cars on that road.
All these questions were raised and shit down here repeatedly. We’re killing people that could live healthy lives for years … The numbers outside Dublin are minimal… And deaths are unfortunately mainly from very old people with underlying issues… We can surely devise a system where ops can go ahead.

That’s a hard line to take
This is one hell of a car crash of a thread.
Idiots will always self-identify and that’s certainly been the case over the last 50 posts or so.

The armchair socialists must be loving life in the basement right now. You can just picture them frantically devouring their populist socialist horseshit online, and pointing the finger at the ruling class, the capitalist system and bourgeois democracy, who have all failed to get ahead of the crisis. 
Statistical analysis and statistical thinking is the most effective way through this, and not politics.
Clarity and excellence in thinking is very much like clarity and excellence in the display of data. When principles of design replicate principles of thought, the act of arranging information becomes an act of insight.

They’ll save lives that can be exchanged for likes on media. Lives from other disease and suicide are worthless therefore.

August Bank Holiday now for the pubs reopening I’m hearing. Mark it down in your calendar lads
Being speculated they aren’t reporting deaths by suicide either for fear of the knock on effect. We need to be careful here.
