Question to you all. What would you do if you thought the woman in the queue behind you was far too close? Turn around and tell her? Well that’s what I just did. Jesus the look I got but fuck that, two meters love gimme some space.
Either tell her or start coughing (but not at her)

I just asked them to play the game and keep your distance.

That was in the beginning, now people seem to be sensible and particularly pleasant.

Wonder what would happen if the clubs furloughed the players and asked the government to fund 80% of their salary

2.5 grand a month is probably what they pay for someone to clean their house.

I'd want more than 30k to be at the beck and call of a massively over-remunerated, narcissistic thicko with entitlement issues and no idea how the real world works.

Footballers getting it in the neck again, really, look at thier tax and NI contributions.

Cunts like Green and Branson, tax exiles who furlough all thier staff and pay minimal tax are far more worthy of the public’s ire, but no..

They too should be made to pay. Is it too simplistic to suggest that if you're the top cheese you put your hand in your own pocket before asking the rest of us to do the same?
