Even if everyone of them had covid (every 300 of them), it would not significantly increase the number of cases in the UK (nearing 300,000). The migrants would increase the number by one promille (1/1,000). Female hysteria in a male?

Re: We Are Being Taken For Right Mugs!

Who mentioned 300? Certainly not me. Gender, what has that to do with anything? Hysteria in a male? Again that's not me. I have been around long enough to see what has happened to this country and it's not good. Also I look at figures over the longer term, some of which can be found in the links below:

Under United Nations rules a refugee can ask for asylum in the country of choice. So all of these in the EU will be aided in reaching the UK if that is the country where they want to ask asylum. We may set up a special part of the eurostar for this purpose.

Re: We Are Being Taken For Right Mugs!

The point being that at this point in the spread in the UK, with 300.000 cases, to make a difference, the number of immigrants entering in a week need to be in the thousands, and it isn't. So you needn't be worried about covid risks by immigration. They bring far worse things in the form of religious beliefs.

Thanks, Bread. Great find

The best part of the article is where the british can't make up their minds on the name of their drink. Four centuries later it took four years just to say goodbye to fellow countries. It really is in the genes.

Re: We Are Being Taken For Right Mugs!

Not bad bread, for your standards. Only wrong by two thousand years. If you had googled a bit better, you would have found out about puccino, the sparkling wine of the romans.

Re: We Are Being Taken For Right Mugs!

Don't believe him Bread. He's got his facts wrong AGAIN! What the Romans drank was NOT champagne as we understand it. It wasn't made according to méthode champenoise so, it couldn't be classed as a champagne-type wine.

Re: We Are Being Taken For Right Mugs!

Prosecco was there before either of them. The delightful bubbly Prosecco we know and love today came from the village of Prosecco, a suburb of Trieste. The name “prosecco” is actually Slovenian, from prozek, or “path through the woods.” (Prior to being called Prosecco, the region was known as Puccino.) Today, Prosecco production extends beyond the small village, but this is where it all began.
The Glera grape, which grew well in the Prosecco region and became the basis for Prosecco, was grown in Ancient Rome. In fact, in his*Natural History, Pliny the Elder—who died in 79 AD—talks of Julia Augusta, “who gave the credit for her eighty-six years of life to the wine of Pizzino.” (In the Latin, on the opposite side, it actually says “Pucino vino,” as in Puccino, as in Prosecco.) So yeah, that’s major street cred.

Sounding a little desperate for your little friend, mind telling why?
