Then I hope you don't live in the UK.
Because that is the root of most of the problems in the UK.

Yes I do live in the UK and I am exercising my right.
So if someone chooses not to kneel to the monarchy that is problematic?
It is that individuals choice if they choose to kneel. No one has the authority to tell you who you can or can't kneel to.
Do wonder though what you mean by "root of most of the problems in the UK" 🤔

Imagine kneeling before someone because they were the first child to be born out of particular fanny.

Imagine kneeling before nothing because it's an invisible figment of someone else's imagination 😆
At least the monarch is made of blood and bone and not a fictional waste of time

Back on the subject of Covid19 and a 2nd wave. I think it has alot to do with the size and the population of the UK urban and rural.
At the last count, 83% of the UK's population live in the towns and cities. Around 45 million live in urban area's. Take London and New York. Both of a similar population of around 8.5 million.
Both were hit hard by the Corona virus simply because of the the close day to day living so close together.
Both London and New York were hit hard so a reopening early wont help.
Me personally, I think the Gov have guestimated that a huge number of people have already had the virus unknowingly another will be far less cases over the coming months.
I think there will be a rise in cases and deaths but this will be minimal in comparison to previous months.
I'd say give it till Christmas and no one will give a toss all hand in hand singing Auld Lang Syne.
But mark my words the biggest fear scientist have pointed out is, how long are you protected once your body produces anti bodies ?.
As with the common cold 6 to 12 months at it's best. If this comes round again say next Feb March and you get it again what then ??.
Viruses never kill more than 15% of its host, thier not suicidal they need a home, clever

Florida had a major increase to 4000 cases in one day of infected think a lot of places are easing restrictions too early from what I read other day China and maybe Thailand has got/had a second wave of the virus.
It makes you wonder what evidence facts they are going by and now UK has been reduced from level 4 to level 3 what ever that means

I agree it's a wrong time with the health crisis to protest as putting lives at risk and the NHS under severe strain and our police forces up and down the country
Yes did read that viruses are an important part of the eco system that effect both plants and animals. It is thought they are used by nature to cull any species that become s too prevalent , so the virus restores a greater level of biodiversity. This then preserves biodiversity

I've been out a few times recently and I can tell you, lots do not give a flying F about social distancing. You can't do this that the other but hold a f**kin blm banner up or protect a stone statue and it's ok. How the hell can you tell the rest of us " Errrrr sorry if your not protesting then please stop at home hey !!!" like F88K !!.
Pubs opening in 2 weeks ? ?, how's that gonna work ??. Like I said, the Gov's basing on guesstimation figures. How do they know how many's got it or had it when 80% never even knew.
Watford's Adrian Mariappa confirms coronavirus; N’Golo Kante misses training
He was clueless till he was tested and he social distanced. I'm sorry to say but this virus hits the weak and the vulnerable and the vast majority it doesn't affect will never know they've had it unless the Gov test everyone in the country for anti bodies. For me we should have shut down till the end of July and played safe but that will never happen

There's still going to be cases in July so do we wait until August when there will still be cases so leave it til September and so on?
Theres going to be cases in July and next July and quite likely every July until a vaccination is rolled out globally.
Now the first wave has passed we can only manage it as best we can, the same as China, Germany and every other country that are seeing localised outbreaks.
Younger people do tend to not bother too much with social distancing for two reasons, 1.They know it's unlikely to seriously harm them personally.
2. They're gormless

I feel sorry for the residents of Florida. Teumps reopening it before the Corona virus has even taken hold.
Florida's population over 60's stands at about 5 million plus. Covid19 is ripping it's way through the state taking no prisoners.
I said this months back that if it ever gets into the huge Florida elderly community death count will sore higher than a NASA rocket. I'll predict 100k in Florida alone especially with restrictions been lifted as we speak

True they had 4000 new cases in 1 day so God only knows what the total will be eventually.
See bojo going to reduce social distancing for us to 1 metre may aswell not have it place imo not many actually adire to the social distancing especially no soon as you get into supermarkets ect
