Re: Covid-19
Why are there still so many new cases reported each day and why is it taking so much longer to come down compared to other European countries ? I know we were two weeks behind some of the worse hit but we still don’t seem to be managing it as well.

Re: FA Cup final renamed
Harmless really but Is there anyone left in the country who is not aware of this now. It is now given far far more coverage than all the other diseases and health issues that people face. I would like to see the Alzheimer’s Society FA Cup for instance if we are going down this route.

I know of some old mills that employed children and had awful safety records by modern health and safety standards so let’s pull them all down. They are a symbolism of something that doesn’t reflect modern attitudes. They might upset some wokes or millennials.
