Our government has officially drunk the Trump Kool Aid [View all]

Today in the Daily Mail this headline... Up to 10,000 NHS health workers will get hydroxychloroquine in trial to see if it stops them catching coronavirus after Donald Trump announced he was taking the anti-malaria drug to protect himself.

Are you fucking kidding me? There is no evidence that this works. Trials had to be stopped in America because it was killing more people than Covid. Side effects can be really nasty. People who need this to live, are struggling to get it but our government is so keen to keep the wanker in chief happy, cause trade and right wing nasty, that they will spend our tax money on this pointless bollocks. How the fuck did we get here? Where the bloody hell has the gravitas gone?
