Just an update
It’s not been too bad around here after an early shopping fest last week. I feel sorry for people living in the more populated areas, less space for getting out in the fresh air and more crowded supermarkets.
Actually, reading some of our local Facebook pages, people are saying that it is now easier to buy certain items from local shops than the supermarkets. Fewer crowds too. It sounds to me that the brainless ones think supermarkets are the best places to go because they’re so big.
I think when we run short of some essentials, small local shops are where we’ll go to top up.
Came up on my local Rainham site…its a closed site so cant give a link.
Securty scum bag at Tescos Rainham said to two NHS workers…If you did your job probley we would not be is this mess know.
I stormed in their and demanded this scum bags sacking.
Did ask for his name and where he lives they refused.
They posted a picture of this filth… will go in early tomorrow.
I’ve just seen this on Facebook:
Six ambulances have holes drilled in tyres in overnight attack in Ramsgate
Paramedics on the frontline of the fight against coronavirus arrived at work to find holes drilled in the tyres of six ambulances.
The vehicles were taken off the road after the damage was discovered at a vehicle preparation centre in Ramsgate shortly after 7am today.
One paramedic posted on Facebook: “Just when you thought this country couldn’t get any worse, someone comes along and drills holes in our ambulance tyres. So we’re now all off the road.”
The damage comes as Kent’s ambulance service says it is under “significant pressure” amid the Covid-19 pandemic.
Already one death from the virus has been confirmed in Medway, while patients are fighting the infection at hospitals in Margate and Ashford.
With the number of cases increasing every day, pressure on the healthcare system is expected to rise.
Janine Compton, a spokesman for South East Coast Ambulance Service, says most people have been “fantastically supportive” of its staff, but condemned those who targeted the vehicles.
She said: "We can confirm that six of our frontline ambulances were deliberately damaged overnight at our Make Ready Centre in Thanet.
"Our fleet staff have worked tremendously hard this morning to ensure that the impact on our patients was minimal. However, it was additional work at a time we are already under significant pressure.
"It is extremely disappointing that an individual would target the ambulance service in this way, at a time when the vast majority of the public have been fantastically supportive of our staff during these difficult times.
“We urge anyone with any information on this to contact Kent Police.”
Police say they are investigating reports of the damage. Anyone with information should call 101.
At the risk of sounding nasty, I hope those responsible find themselves seriously ill with coronavirus.
I’ll go a bit further.
I hope those that did it get involved in a nasty accident and fekkin die because an Ambulance can’t get to them - bloody scum!
I’ve just been reading about this. It’s appalling isn’t it. I can’t get my head around how totally obnoxious society is these days.
:twisted:
Did any of you ever watch an American series must have been in the sixties The Invadres starring Roy Thinnes where people from another planet looking just like us walked amongst us ?
Makes you wonder ? Well it does me .
Zuleika, avid Invaders fan here, so I remember that episode like it was yesterday.
Thanks. I have been recording the stats from COVID - Coronavirus Statistics - Worldometer to record the increases…not liking what I find…but worse to come I think.
Our civilization is but an illusion. It is like a thin layer of ice over a vast lake of chaos and barbarism.
My theory is that it is mainly because we have had a situation now for some years in which criminal behaviour remains unpunished.
The irresponsible idiots know that they can do what the hell they want, just for a laugh, and nothing will be done.
I have two questions:
How long will this lawless situation prevail?
What on earth can we do to reverse it?
There are exceptions to that - The Isle of Wight has been described as vulnerable because of the lack of hospital facilities.
Not much hope there then!!
Thats not you being nasty, it’s you being reasonable, we don’t need evil pigs like that in this world. This is (i want to use the eff word) disgusting
The PM has told folks not to go down to the coast, although many folks have simply ignored this.
Me too , I never did see Roy Thinnes is anything thereafter tho .
OMG, an Asian man in my hometown has tested positive.
Yep, Weston Super Mare packed today.
The herd syndrome…
Most wilderbeest stand and watch the pride of lions on the premise that they stand as much chance as any others of being attacked…safety in numbers.
I’d shoot the buggers…
if I could get away with it.
