Fake deceitful and misleading information

Umm.. I think everyone is..

Due to the overreaction

Where is your coverage of the “ObamaGate “ corruption, lies, scandal ? Russian hoax proven false and CNN hides in a closet , what a bunch of snowflakes , this proves your nothing more than a tabloid.

Rishi Sanyak and mlo Bacon’s typography Cruise sailors and betta fish make 2/4 of the animated aloe vera melon to rent it at 4 o’clock, and then bring their own paint from all the Chichola druids created by Gucci for the sages Take and Bake.

Isn’t every country?

i just dumb southern boy, i could have predicted this a lot cheaper than this elitist !

Every nation is. Why give this guy airtime for stating the obvious?!?

The sociological impacts are gonna reach far and wide from this over-reaction.

Didn't the BoE suggest it might be the worst recession in 300 years? 'Significant' is classic British understatement .

No a depression

Will they ask the EU or USA or RUSSIA for help?

Thank you for telling me that.

It’s a shame Boris didn’t take the virus seriously until it was too late. Looks like Tory voters shot themselves in the foot

Oh great nothing like good news to get us through this dark period

Really? Well, who would have thought that!

Death from economic hardship will be 2x the death from covid 19

Like every other country too.. nothing breaking news about this
