I’m afraid I came back to cold England. Was only going to stay if England locked down.
They take mask wearing and social distancing miles more seriously than in England and you have to prove your vaccination status in a lot of places eg Gavea golf club, to stay in a hotel, fine dining etc etc. I was surprised to see how seriously they took it but guess that’s what you have to do if you don’t have the money to afford to furlough people and provide loans for lengthy lockdowns.
Personally I think we Europeans could learn a lot from the Brazilian approach.
They also have hose attachments next to a lot of their toilets so you can wash your arse after going to the loo which I find preferable to the dirty European way of smearing poo around with a bit of tissue.
All in there’s a lot we can learn from them rather than going on about Bolsinaros short comings as if they’re ignorant idiots for voting him in. The country is imperfect in many ways, high crime, a poorly educated poor favel living section of society trapped in poverty, drug problems, deforestation, corruption, mass public debt, a big litter problem from the poor and mass traffic congestion in the cities. So they have major problems but their approach to Covid seemed remarkably sensible given they didn’t have the public finances to pay for long lockdowns.
Also when I had a live threatening blocked bowel in 2012 when I was there their medical system and care worked miles better than it does over here and the cost was modest by comparison.
The golf courses are very good in Rio too so would’ve been happy to see out the winter there if I’d needed to.
Boris in shit street today. Obviously he’s coming to an end as leader for these pictures too have been released after so long.
Got a be inside the party. Still be nice to see the conceited prick squirm for once.
So the PM just admitted to attending a garden party during the first lockdown - while he was telling everyone not to see their families. Who would want to keep listening to these clowns who take the piss out of your lives.
I guess the thing with Boris is that everyone always knew he was bumbling, chaotic, ill disciplined, a serial liar and cheat who couldn’t his penis in his trousers for ore than 5 minutes at a time. But now he’s behind in the polls his own MP’s will ruthlessly bayonet him to death in short order.
Yeah mate I’m done to the 17th, thankfully it’s from when the swab was taken, so despite getting my results this morning I’m already 3 days into the mandatory 7.
