Steamport Southport Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 1 hour ago, grahame said: He was just a comic foil for Mannering. ARWs told people to turn light off or cover windows when they'd been left on during a raid. And I doubt there were many who wouldn't comply and threw bricks at the ARWs and chased they off with knives as seems to happen now with the police. But there was though. You do realise that crime escalated massively during the war? Not just a few spivs selling dodgy gear but major organised crime. There was also the IRA setting fire to hillsides to light the way for the bombers to bomb the cities. Something mentioned in Dads Army. But everyone was lovely and done what they were told. No one went around burgling the houses whilst the occupants were in the shelter or did the warehouses and banks whilst the police were busy. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-33566789 Jason 1 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium TheQ Posted August 23, 2020 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 23, 2020 20 hours ago, melmerby said: The current round of civil disobedience by mass gathering is largely to blame for the current increase in Covid cases. There were about 80 illegal gatherings in the West Midlands alone last weekend. These people just couldn't care less about anybody else. Well borne out by a comment to a TV interviewer by a 20ish female. "We are young, we want to enjoy ourselves, not sit at home" Sums it up, really. IMHO the time of the light touch in enforcement by the police is over. They need to crack down hard else we won't get rid of the virus. They solved that during WW2 by sendIng the men of that age to get shot at, and the childless women 12hour days in munitions factory's or farming.

RMweb Gold Enterprisingwestern Posted August 23, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 23, 2020 3 hours ago, grahame said: There is major organised crime now; city lines drug dealing, on-line scamming/fraud, people trafficking and do on, but organised crime is purpetuated by criminal gangs and other individual 'modern' crimes like knife offences and 'cat-con' theft have also recently increased. But, in addition, what we are seeing now is massive civil disobedience. It seems that much of the community is not pulling together to tackle a national threat unlike during the war. Things could be far worse, just look westwards! Mike. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once no-one is being hospitalised for covid-19 we can be sure that any positive test result will be a false one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steamport Southport Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 I think you need to spray or smear them with something. No idea what it's called as I don't wear them, but I know loads who do. It's like a Vaseline. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
