Less food choice would be fine, but the medicines are non negotiable unless we have a stockpile that wasn't needed at brexit time. 50% of food comes in via France. Then there is also the exports too where UK hauliers need to return. LF tests are an option, but even they are as we know not brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not understand your reply about how “us Brits and Germans” want to be more mindful than the Swedes. I do not want to upset you, but it would be helpful if you could be clearer. Could I also clarify the “more planes about to fall out of the sky” comment? What is this in reference to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is this in reference to? 13 minutes ago, Barry Fish said: Buy a history book or spend more time listening in School in the morning in regards to the first comment. WW2 / British Empire / War Crimes and so on is all the help you are getting. On the second point, its in relation to the current daily covid death toll. Sleep well x I have had this comment before - "it's the war" (paraphrase). What does “WW2/British Empire/War Crimes” and the specific focus on Germany being humble about history, have to do with the current events (or more specifically, the comment you were replying to – the German Easter lockdown)? I am afraid you are not being clear here – apologies as you are confusing me. “You would have thought the Germans knew all about being humble to history …” I have given you the courtesy of quoting the entire back-history of this comment, and my questions relating to it. I would appreciate it if you could explain, clearly, what it was you were trying to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
