Oh FFS BORIS. Seriously? No more than six unless it's schools, workplaces weddings, funerals .... just what. Either all gatherings are a risk or none are. Eight hours in an office with twenty people is no less of a risk than ten people sat together at the pub.

Social gatherings of more than six people will be illegal in England from Monday - with some exemptions - amid a steep rise in coronavirus cases.

A new legal limit will ban larger groups meeting anywhere socially indoors or outdoors, No 10 said.

But it will not apply to schools, workplaces or Covid-secure weddings, funerals and organised team sports.

It will be enforced through a £100 fine if people fail to comply with police, doubling up to a maximum of £3,200.

Several exemptions apply to the new rules - which come into force on 14 September - with households and support bubbles bigger than six people unaffected.

A full list of exemptions will be published by the government later.

Prime Minister Boris Johnson is expected to deliver further details at a Downing Street news conference on Wednesday.

Look at this brazen motherfucker:


We all know what Andrew Cuomo did.


He murdered thousands of his constituents’ grandparents with COVID-19.

You’re not fooling anyone, Governor Nipple Rings.

I guess the doomers saying that the future would involve eating bugs, living in pods, and going to your wagey cagey weren't far off.

A lot of people believe still that kind of stuff. I stopped to look at some animals the other day on a trail, and a guy walking behind me started yelling 6 feet.

You should have screeched like a chimpanzee on PCP and started throwing rocks at him.

Found a thing on reddit's r/conspiracy (yeah I know) kinda interesting.



Personal experience update - went out to Walmart in the midwest because my day wasn't going badly enough. Most people were wearing masks but very few were social distancing. I got my emergency frozen pizzas, sodas and candy, plus more toilet paper, and scurried back into my hobbit-hole. So far, I have survived. If I die I'll try to let y'all know.

Schools are still fucked, friend of mine is a university assistant teacher and she told me nobody has any idea how to organize the classes and how to handle newly registered students, she sits at home all day playing rimwold and she has no idea what the students are doing. When I asked her how she keeps her classes she said: "what classes?" Weird considering it's the second semester of the wuflu and my country's school system had an entire summer to prepare for it, but there you go.

I think my goodwill and tolerance has finally reached the limit and now I understand why Hitler was able to rise to power. I think if more people understood why they were on lockdown in the first place they would be a lot angrier.

Don't watch the video I have attached unless your heart has truly been hardened. I don't mean that in a try-hard edgy sense, there are some things in this world that you cannot unsee. Saw a bunch of you getting squeamish over some faggot blowing his brains out because his dog was there, don't even bother. I spent a long time thinking about if it was something I should save or not. In the end, I saved it only because my disgust was trumped by anger, I feel like people need to understand what they're dealing with. These people are soulless.

I'm seeing a lot of people doing this recently. Just people hitting their fuckit limit and accelerating their plans to buy homes, etc.

I have resisted buying a home for many reasons...until now. Seriously considering buying something in an outer suburb or semi-rural in the next year.

LA County just cancelled Trick Or Treat. Not that I have kids but screw this BS. I don't know a single person who has died of Covid yet and Halloween is the best holiday of the year.

Fuck this as another childless person who doesn’t even like Halloween that much. I was talking to someone recently who said they feared Halloween being cancelled and here we are. Who takes Halloween away from kids?!

I used to live in Melbourne and I still have friends there so I think I can give you the short version.

Melbourne is part of the state of Victoria. The Victorian government declared a state of emergency in March as a response to Covid-19. It's a law that allows them to suspend all constitutional rights on the grounds that an urgent and overwhelming threat to public health exists. They also declared a state of disaster (usually reserved for wild fires and floods). When these laws were first drawn up it was envisioned that the declarations would only last for a few days, to allow for things like mandatory quarantining of the sick and to move people to safety. They're now six months in and the government asked for a 1 year extension of the state of emergency, as it was about to run out, with the Parliament giving them another six months (with an automatic rollover if the coof is still around March next year).

In Melbourne, right now, the people are under a strict curfew that starts at 8PM. The cops have set up roadblocks around the city and you require special permits to travel 5km from your home. You must produce your papers when asked. Folks have to stay inside 23 hours a day, they're allowed out for 1 hours exercise (just like a Federal pen). Face masks are of course mandatory at all times, even when outside. The cops can issue spot fines for infringements of up to $20,000. Anyone who complains on social media is being closely monitored and the police have made it clear they'll be paying visits to people who get too mouthy about the lockdown. All businesses, except essential services are closed (and pretty much have been since March). All schools and universities are closed. This hard lockdown started 4 weeks ago as the government lost control of it's quarantine facilities, having staffed them with immigrant day workers (I shit you not).

The guy in the video is an anti-lockdown activist. His crime was to go on facebook and urge people to attend a protest against the curfews and home confinements and rise in suicide due to the economic depression (the Victorian economy has all but collapsed). His crime is 'incitement' which means whatever the cops and politicians want it to mean. Basically if you talk to others about how shitty things are you're risking 6 months in prison. He was also slapped with 'possession of illegal weapons' for owning some movie prop swords, because the police are cunts and he was mouthing off to them.

Anyway the Victorian government have recently stated that the lockdown will go on until Christmas. There's less than a hundred cases a day in Melbourne, 90% of the deaths have happened in nursing homes, almost all of the positive cases are being caught in the state run hospitals and most of the rural parts of the state have no, as in zero, cases of Covid but you guessed it they're in lockdown as well. The pregnant woman who was handcuffed? She lives in Ballarat, a small town 100 miles north of Melbourne that also has no cases of Covid. She was arrested for 'putting lives at risk' for organizing a public gathering which could spread the virus, in a town that doesn't have any virus.

If the idea of an advanced western democracy treating it's own population like this sounds kind of creepy and Orwellian, well you'd be right. The Victorian government is run by leftist SJWs, so of course they're telling everyone that this will go on until there's a vaccine, which might be never. Welcome to the future.

And the worst part? People will zero in on the fact that they only have 100 cases and say "See, they're doing it the right way, unlike those plague rats in America!" .

Same. Is there a "Kiwis buying farms" thread out there?

Is that how mask-wearing became ingrained in Chinese culture? They just had so many Wu Flu like events that people simply adapted to their normal?

Fuck, no. Chinese/Japanese/Koreans have been wearing masks outside for a very long time. Saw it while in Korea in the 70's and 80's. Well, I guess we can see just how much use wearing masks turned out to be in Wuhan. "They" can stick their masks up their asses.
