@Manuel_Lolo_ Boas. Entendo o que dis. Tanto a nivel privado como profesional sigo as directrices das autoridades sanitarias británicas ao pé da letra. Tamén sobre o uso das máscaras. Pero tomo nota do comentario. Un saúdo

[Duarte Romero-Varela @Duarte_RV]

The lack of compliance with basic mask wearing and social distancing rules at @Tesco is outrageous. People crowding in queues, employees and clients not wearing masks or wearing them under the chin...No wonder why 1 in 30 in London are infected with the virus.

@michaeljswalker That has been quite common in South America. Taking power with a progressive nationalist platform and moving leftwards when in office.

Am still looking to speak to people who made new friendships with a neighbour during lockdown. If that's you, or anyone you know, please get in touch! For an article in the Telegraph. Thanks

I think that @stephenkb is running out of EU puns for his daily newsletter

The moment that the geeks inherited the world

A house near me was £89,995 in 1996, it sold for £530,000 in 2019. An increase of £440,005 and obviously wages have kept up with that sort of increase and it’s definitely millenials and their avocado toast that’s stopping them 🙂

@SoniSaFr Ola! Si, mándame unha mensaxe privada. Un saúdo!

This is a huge shift in the economic consensus

[Britain Elects @BritainElects]

If measures are needed to be put in place to reduce the deficit, which best fits your view?

Mainly tax rises: 47% (+17)
Mainly spending cuts: 27% (-25)

"Spain has proven much less generous than other European states in spending its way out of the crisis — even though Mr Sánchez’s coalition is one of the most leftwing governments in the EU and the country has been one of the most badly affected." https://t.co/a4HvhnquDA via @FT

Bottles, cans and smoke bombs thrown in the last half hour at police and their horses in Parliament Square by football firms/far-right protesters. Anyone who is thought to be media is also being threatened.

Looking good

@jathers_ONS We’ve also published a new article showing the impact #COVID19 had on the UK economy in April https://t.co/GTJaumWUye

@xabitubbi @nicolasmayo Tampouco mudaron tanto as cousas de abril a xuño!

[Duarte Romero-Varela @Duarte_RV]

@nicolasmayo @xabitubbi Eu penso que as tirei. Supoño que se a lista é distinta terano que dar por nulo. Se se dan conta, claro

[Duarte Romero-Varela @Duarte_RV]

@xabitubbi Non pon a data nas papeletas?

[Duarte Romero-Varela @Duarte_RV]

@xabitubbi Ah, non sabía! Eu accedín á clave CTT a través dunha ligazón no web do INE. Iso si que é máis sinxelo. Dentro do que cabe, porque a páxina é confusa e a información está mal organizada. Pero vendo que non chegou a carta, temo polas papeletas!

Amazing how many “free thinkers” will uncritically swallow any old garbage provided it’s from the non ‘mainstream media’.
