@BenCotto the survey results probably say more about the people the media outlets choose to use than the actual percentages with those views.
It seems to be taken from a fairly reputable study carried out by King's College London. It also ties in with stats from other studies and political voting. These are likely to be the same people who were the 'do your own research' brand of covidiots, the anti-vaxers and the 5G tinfoil hatters. People who voted Leave because they believed the targeted disinformation on social media. It's a similar percentage to the number of people judged to have very poor literacy levels in the country too but I'm sure that's unrelated...
If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.
I was reading a report about the bridge collapse in India. Almost the first observation was that it was a 'Colonial Era' bridge. What is the relevance of that? India has been independent since 1947, so the bridge has stood for 75 years since that happened. The fact that it had undergone major repairs recently and hadn't been issued with a safety certificate before it was reopened was much further down the report.
I had hoped to finally meet up with a family member next week, only to find that there is now going to be a rail strike on the proposed date. Im getting really fed up with this.
I was very curmudgeonly last night, my OH came through the living room door, stepped on a square of chocolate I'd inadvertently dropped, ground it into the sole of his slipper (it was soft) and walked it over to his chair. Chocolate smears everywhere so I shrieked when I came back in from the kitchen and saw it. The only good thing about it was that it was almost exactly the same shade as the carpet! Thankfully hot water and a good scrub put things right.
Chris -P,no rain forecast,and of course it will encourage my male doggy to follow suit, now it's in the garden. Saw that program advertised, about these idiots. There was one recently saying one of the terrible school shootings in the US was fake. Mind you, I don't know what their security is like. I took my grandson to school in the spring as a lot of you know. Teacher comes out,gates electronically locked. Very high fence, curving inward. You have to speak through a system,there's a camera, identify yourself. When you leave,it's pretty difficult to get back out of the grounds.
