    They've missed off the 5G mast conspiracy theorists and their followers, particularly those who have damaged masts. There are no words to describe their lack of intelligence and common sense.

    A bloke pinned up a map of the world to the wall and said to his son "Here, throw this dart at it. Wherever it lands, I’ll take the family there once all this virus business is over”.

    Turns out they’ll be spending a fortnight behind the fridge.

    There’s a story in a similar vein doing the rounds from Switzerland. Right wing populist member of their parliament, from the party that protested against against burkas and other Islamic face coverings, was asked to remove a face mask by their speaker last month. She declined and said, amongst other things, she felt it was a ‘matter of personal freedom’ for her to wear a face mask.

    There are but they are not printable here. Complete loons. Offer any constructive argument and evidence to counter them and you will be accused of being in the pay of the reptilians, multinationals, secret government, big pharma etc,etc.etc. The same sort of loons who deny the Moon landings, think the earth is flat, deny climate change and probably want everyone to return to the Middle Ages and a theocracy. They think everyone aside from themselves are gullible but the truth is that it is worrying they are allowed to vote.

    It doesn't help that Eamonn 'I'm the best TV presenter' Holmes said on ITV's This Morning that the 5G theory was a legitimate concern! I give up.

    It’s likely the source article conflated the Israeli Health Minister with this article about a Rabbi Meir Mazuz, who claimed that the Arab states did not have coronavirus because they do not allow gay pride parades (unlike Israel which is progressive about gay rights).

    It’s probably easy to do if you believe there is only one Rabbi in Israel and like a Scottish Highlander he has about 20 jobs.

    I loved this:

    Dr Michael Head, senior research fellow in global health at the University of Southampton, added: "The world of infectious disease experts, covering a wide range of disciplines, backgrounds, countries and employers are united in that we know how transmission of a virus works.

    "Holmes is not known for his scientific expertise and appears to have very little in the way of relevant qualifications, experience or any kind of written track record in peer-reviewed journals."

    I'm a bit late posting it so apologies if someone has already done so...

    Boris is BACK! (not an endorsement by myself but I've found it difficult not to laugh at this)

    I’m sure I read somewhere that he had his 40th or 50th birthday at Old Trafford, with him of course being one of the country’s top-know nothing plastic football fans. I’m sure it said that he was in full Manure kit, you know, like a 9 year old’s birthday party.

    Everything about this photo is utterly predictable. From their look, their beards, their weight, their guns, their baseball caps - Everything. It's like someone took a foreigner's prejudiced view of Americans and staged this as a a propaganda pic.

    TBF there's not too many of them playing 'dress-up' wearing camo/MTP - which is something I would have expected.

    Buzzing for the who can make more noise for the NHS at 8 pm, can't wait to put it on twitter and instagram and make people aware of how much I love the NHS more than them.

    Ur not wrong m8. Beers and playing some tunes out the windows from 7pm, ramping it up with some dancing and air horns from 7:45pm. Got my hands on a load of masks and gloves and stuck them all over the house.

    Doing a live feed on Insta, YouTube and Facebook. Tagged everyone I know. They're going to blown away by how much I care.

    You are my pikey next door neighbour but one and I claim my 5 hours of not having to listen to your shyte 'music' whilst you and your offspring play 'who can smoke the most ganja' whilst practising, what I can only assume is, product placement for the "FARK" and "KAHNT" corporations in your appearance in the next Channel Five series of "My Big Fat Gypsy Living in Normal Society" every f**king weekend. Funny that, when I used to habitually smoke the stuff it used to mellow me the f**k out not wind me up...

    You were out at 19h45 on the first one of these NHS appreciations bellowing for everyone to "...get out and show your support for the NHS..." until you exploded at 20h00 demanding why we weren't "...showing f**king support for the NHS..." - we were, just indoors well away from you.

    This has now evolved to how all of your neighbours go into their gardens at 20h00 to bang pots and pans to both (a) show our support for the NHS and (b) enrage you because we're "...not f**king doing it right..." HTH

    EDIT: You should also see the shyte state of his decking and the unrecognisable muck he cooks on his barbecue.

    Kin 'ell. All aboard the grumblelance and round to Victor Meldrew's house you miserable lot. Once a week for 5 minutes is all you have to bear for people doing a tough job.

    You'll have dumps that last longer this week.
