From Levy's statement:
"Every person on this planet will be affected and in my lifetime I cannot think of something so impactful. With over 786,000 infected, nearly 38,000 deaths and large segments of the world in lockdown we need to realise that football cannot operate in a bubble.
"We may be the eighth largest club in the world by revenue, according to the Deloitte survey, but all that historical data is totally irrelevant as this virus has no boundaries."
Yes Daniel, that does sound totally irrelevant .
Am I weird to find this to be the mark of total american psycho style capitalist sociopath?

Probably, just before it fell by 50%.
Look let's all cheer each other up by imagining different ways Toby Young could be dying right now. I'm imagining he's popped out for milk and some really bored cold turkey crackhead children kick the fuck out of him and set fire to him in a skip while he screams do you know who my dad was
He reminds me (looks wise) of Eddie in Bottom. So, imagining Toby young getting a dart in the eye is always a salve for the soul
That's the funny thing about mathematics and percentages. Once you lose 50%, then you need a gain of 100% just to claw back your losses. So you don't want to be holding stocks that move up or down by that much, you want to be day trading them instead.
I imagine him firing a hot latin student, then several years later being abducted, handcuffed to a radiator, then whipped with a coat hangar, to tear open bits and pieces of his flesh. Start of easy and that. Then playing a game of spin the wheel, where the numbers in dollars represent the values we assigned to various parts of his anatonmy, including internal organs. Hmmm there's quite a lot of values and body parts to remember. Before the spin the wheel we'd have to use a branding iron to label the dollar amounts directly onto him. That game should last a good few hours. My favourite bit will be when we spin $14,000 which will represent his left year. That would be an opportune moment to put on the soundtrack and role play one of the greatest scenes in cinema history.
By now the number of body parts which will have been removed will have exposed a lot of nerve endings. That would give rise to the opportunity to stick his left arm stump into the boiling pot of paella we'd be making from his severed appendages. Ideally Froggy would be able to supply some pangolin to add into the mix. Feed that to him as his last meal.
Then crack out the chemicals. A few acids. Some bleach for the eyes. He'd be quite close to death by now, so we better move onto the physics before it's too late. The battery pack and leads. What did Mahone do in prison break? Yes, we'll have to keep his right hand in tact, so remove that off the spin the wheel. Then shove the leads through his finger tips. Flick the switch. He'll shit out the paella at that point I'm guessing. So turn the power off, and make him re-ingest that.
I think I'd call it a day at that point. Some petrol, make sure he drinks some of the petrol too, a gallon or so to stimulate internal combustions as well as the usual burning alive from the outside.

I'm on to a new theory now that all this is a response to the Huawei stuff. Don't want to use our phones 'cos spying? Ok, we own most of the underlying networking equipment anyway, use whatever phones you want and we'll just spy on all your meetings and social engagements instead.
And just to make sure more interactions are done online, here's a virus, you should probably stay in your homes for a while.
That number won't do her any good without the password too.
Sure it's not real but I also hope it is lol
Not a problem for the owner of Zoom. Who you will not be surprised to learn is a chinese billionaire. Who now has a recording of the UK government discussing secret information, whilst he and the emperor sit watching it all unfold with popcorn, whilst the fat cunt Boris openly talks of letting old people die because economies, and gdp, and economies. I'm sure if you check this morning, he is now a chinese trillionaire.
He's American now. *coughs uncomfortably*
I did think Johnson's Huawei 5G decision was weird at the time. Why would you allow or use any Chinese tech that allowed them to spy and use as propaganda?
Trump was right about this one, they're an obvious security threat. I suppose one good thing that might come out of this crisis is such decisions may be reversed, and as a nation we shun any such possible interference or influence.
Merely a temporary step before America becomes China's.
Human connection innit.
As part of my previous role, I'd have to support a review of anything the government used for the PSN, and once it reaches a certain level of criticality we'd also have to bring in GCHQ to review it, or take it off us completely for review. I suspect this has been crawled all over by GCHQ before being approved safe for use.
I feel suddenly both more and less safe
You can feel safe that GCHQ runs the roost over what the PM gets to access, how and when. If they're not happy, then it doesn't happen. If they let it slide, and it goes tits up, then on their heads be it. These are the same people that govern access to the launch codes, so draw your own conclusions from that.
edit
Additionally these are the same people that poured over Huawei's 5G infrastructure before giving the government the thumbs up that it was safe to deploy.

Whilst I am sure GCHQ probably employ a racist recruitment policy barring anyone of chinese descent, think about the universities from which their highly intelligent math and computing graduates all come, well they were taught everything they (think they) know by increasing numbers of chinese lecturers.
I see some of the papers have finally shit themselves and woken up this morning, holding the government to account..
Not surprising really as the billionaires running these papers are seeing their money and fortunes collapse in front of their eyes..

I’d bet their online versions are up on hits/subscriptions. There seems to be this constant thirst for the latest news during the pandemic.
