Hartlepool (**North England) is known by many as the place where a monkey was mistaken for a French spy and hanged..........
One stormy day, a French ship was wrecked off the coast of an old fishing village clinging to the north-east coast of England.
The only survivor was the ship's mascot, a monkey that was washed ashore.
The people of Hartlepool had never seen a monkey before - nor, for that matter, had they ever set eyes on a Frenchman.
Mistaking its chattering for the language of the enemy, they convicted the monkey of being a French spy and hanged the animal

Am i glad I am in OZ again, yes we were in lock down as well but I just can't understand
the Thai Gov to make those restrictions having near zero covid-19cases. I live in WA and we
had no infections for a couple of weeks apart from a live sheep exporter coming from
Dubai to pick up their sheep. But due to our strict inspections they were tested and not
allowed to disembark and transferred to isolation hotels. Things are nearly normal now
pubs are open (limit of 100 customers) gyms are allowed to open on the 6th (June)
Yes we still follow social distancing laws (which does not bother me at all). Beaches are
open,parks are open and virtually every thing else. I feel sorry for Thai people which
can not get back on their feet and I am not talking about the sex scene. My lady friend
lost her business (hairdresser) mainly because her landlord would not drop the rent.
So she is just surviving now. Actually I am better of now I still get my pension and the
Australian government paid me extra money even so I spend less because of the
restrictions. I am just careful when I go out for shopping because I am in the age groop
most likely to catch that virus. And comparing that virus with the flu is nonsense.
We have a vaccine for the flu but not for covid-19, I get my flu shot every year and never
had the flu apart from the common cold. So you can hate me for that post but I feel
sorry for Thai people and all Farangs still living in Thailand or trying to get back.

US President Donald Trump’s plan to take down social media sites for their perceived bias against Republicans and conservatives appears to have hit a snag after a Federal court didn’t agree with him.
And without Twitter how will he broadcast his lies to his followers?

You forgot to mention he had " many other health complications".
Guess it didn't follow the scaremongering agenda.
Maybe he had, but he would not have died without contracting covid-19

there were very clear exceptions as pointed out many times
HE DID NOTHING WRONG
go educate yourself, this is left wing nonsense - anti brexit anti government of the highest order
DC is a hero trying to protect his family and not breaking any rules
time to move on from this BS
and time the mainstream media started reporting news instead of the left propaganda they are pushing all day every day
I want news - events, not what Adam Boulton or that other hag Burley voicing their unwanted opinions, who gives a flying ......... what they think
Are you for real?

"Ergo no one has Covid" it's not the case since a very high percentage has either very mild or no sympthoms at all.
And it's another proof this massive overreaction over this Flu like virus is ridicolous.
Tell that the family of an Australian guy who died yesterday at the age of 30

Just to inform you this is a international forum and I am sitting in my 3 bedroom

Both Johnson and Trump have done a lousy job in this emergency. The Cummings thing is way overblown....he's a senior person in the government ordinary laws don't apply to him as we see every day on all countries around the world. He caused no one any harm, so get over your selves and let him get on with his job.
Are you for real?

Thailand new infections yesterday, +2, the day before, 0
UK +1,600, Italy +300, France +358, Germany +461.....
Well New Zeeland and Australia must be stupid countries then
nobody wears a mask and it is not recommended by
health authorities and they have the lowest infection rate.
In Australia, the current advice from the Federal Government is that the majority of people won't benefit from wearing a surgical mask and if you're well, you don't need one.

Private quarantine facilities at own cost offered to returning foreigners
in Thailand News - Discussion
I guess my last post got lost or deleted in Australia you get put in to 5 star hotels
there is no cost to residents or foreigners so Thailand is just trying to make money.
