  1. LOL…The kid asked, “Why is it, that London is shut down?” as they are jumping around with no mask….aaaaah really? LOL

    1. @Sparky Sparky FFS, stop using percentages. We are talking about human life here. Why are you taking it so cheaply? 220,000+ deaths in the US, all who had families, most died without having their families with them when they went. Are they are just a number to you?

    2. @Pete Pav
      πŸ”΄ 45 second second video proving the death count includes people who did not die from the Coronavirus.

      “THE DEATH COUNT EXPLAINED: Dr. Ngozi Ezike, director of Illinois Department of Public Health” on YouTube

    1. @robinhood 46 doesn’t your statement about the “other 6 litre of 02 your breathing in comes from outside the mask” defeat the entire purpose of wearing the mask in the first place? The size of the supposed covid-19 virus (that they have yet to prove is a virus) is smaller than the holes in the mask or whatever you want to call the pathway thru the mask is so the mask is not stopping the “virus” from being spread!! If a grown adult with half a brain can’t figure out that this entire COVID-19 PLANDEMIC is nothing more than a HOAX then they are really in a bad situation bc there is no virus! Remember they first said that we needed to shut the entire country down for only 2-3 weeks just so we could “flatten the curve” and not overwhelm the hospitals with people with Covid. Well we are WAY PAST THAT STAGE and they are still wanting everyone to stay at home dont go anywhere while they lose their life savings if they had any to begin with and ruin all the small business in America! How hard is it for people to see that they only businesses or companies that are making any money are the big ones like Amazon and Wal Mart! Look at Amazon sales and stock pricec since this crap started in March! More and more people are starting to wake up and are getting more accurate information than the same crap CNN, NBC and ABC spew out of their mouths every day!

    1. Beat me to it, I had to cross the city centre last night on my way to work and the only local accents I heard were the door men.

    2. Health Experts have recommended a new pandemic approach to one of β€œFocused Protection.” It calls for lifting restrictions on the general population to develop herd immunity while implementing measures to protect the vulnerable. They say we need an approach that balances the risks and benefits of reaching herd immunity, allow those who are at minimal risk of death to live their lives normally to build up immunity to the virus through natural infection, while better protecting those who are at highest risk.” Protect the at-risk community by tighter restrictions surrounding nursing homes and essential item deliveries to vulnerable people.β€œCurrent lock down policies are producing devastating effects on short and long-term public health … leading to greater excess mortality NOW & in years to come.”

    3. @Pam Deshane That is not the recommendation of health experts, it is an completely debunked idea put forth by ignoramuses.

    4. @Angel Baby Maybe it’s because they know what everyone else knows, it’s a load of bollocks, the clue is Rudy. Funny how it’s so soon after Barr put Obamagate to bed.

      Mate= friend

      No one is confused by your Harry Potter lingo, now shut up and stay on lockdown.

    1. @Steve Tanai for someone who’s telling us his been to Tanaznia including having a wife from there. They way you have put the whole Africa like its a country is questionable.

    1. @Marcus Wardle You are aware people up north were doing the right thing ? Staying home and keeping their distance . The UK government opened up once we had hit our peak in May and even let a football match with fans flying in from Madrid a hotspot.Our leaders up here begged to be kept in lock down for a few more weeks

      Instead of doing it regionally they did it based on London’s infection rate .

      Plenty of people up here follow the rules . Our leaders want a circuit lock down .

      It never should have happend , Westminster should have left it up to local leaders and worked with them .

      A central approach never works .

      We are behind you in infection rates a few weeks . They didn’t take that into account

    2. @Marcus Wardle I’m not Liverpudlian and the Tory government have been useless from day 1.
      We are overlooked.

    3. @Marcus Wardle β€œmy house is burning down !!!!!!Help! Hang on don’t you care about all the other houses burning down!!!!!!” Is basically your argument.

    4. @Fran .L As a 60 year old I do care. I’m just pissed off at being home all day. Just when there seemed to be a flicker of light at the end of a very long tunnel this happens. To see that massive crowd made me really cross. I have a friend who has not left her house since March because of this. She is going stir-crazy! I don’t care what your political persuasion, whether you come from Outer Mongolia! This virus doesn’t give a damn and people should recognise that. If the 2nd wave is deadlier than the first and younger people are more affected what are they going to complain about then? I’m just extremely annoyed! Anybody ever heard of personal and social responsibility?

    1. Criminal/Civil lawsuit has been launched by Dr. of Law, Reiner Fuellmich and a team of international lawyers against the WHO and specifically Tedros in Germany for Crimes Against Humanity. The Lawsuit also encompasses Politicians who have Locked-down their countries instituting WHO measures resulting in Excess Deaths World wide due to WHO Covid 19 Lockdown Measures: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kr04gHbP5MQ&t=184s

    2. You enquired about our free healthcare… Well it is a 1-2 month wait for a consultation appointment. They are transitioning to apps because the doctors cant be bothered to see you. I have health concerns now and then, I don’t bother to visit the family doctor…. Because I don’t officially have one, they keep changing all the doctors. You will wait months and months to get treatment. How big is the US population again?? Yeah not going to happen..Unless you want to eat your pets for dinner after spending Trillions on healthcare… Trillions is not a made up number.

  2. Hello American,
    The kid asked, “Why is it, that London is shut down?”
    as they are jumping around with no mask….aah really?

  3. Dont blame places: people are the problem / nobody listening to nobody. To many lies / corruption β˜•πŸš¬πŸŽ€ ( NY )πŸ‡΅πŸ‡±

  4. Think about it, these “old disposable” people supported and gave rise to the Beatles. These were the coolest 😎 of people of their day.

    1. They have Gong Cha in England…. I’m definitely visiting now. Next year I’m buying a round trip ticket from EWR to whatever the airport code is for London.

  5. That was a couple of hundred people mostly students on the corner of Concert Street and Wood Street, the rest of town was quiet.

    1. WHO is not going to help out in your hospitals. Lockdowns are only effective and less damaging if you act early.

    2. @Bruce Fale Very true. Australia was stabilized at abt 105 deaths nationally. Winter arrived and one state had a major outbreak which could be traced from two families breaking the rules. The city, then state quickly locked down as the virus spread rapidly.
      Our internal borders were still in quarantine so it could be contained and we had extensive tracing. The country anticipated a winter outbreak and was prepared with a plan.
      Sadly, it caused over 800 deaths and thousands of infections.
      The country is now back to 20 ish new cases and 1-5 death p/day.
      Of course, we had our own whinging about their 2nd lockdown, but that is what you have to do to squash the spread.
      All I can say is, prepare for winter.
      Keep yourself and loved ones safe.
