As a northerner, I'm not very happy with being associated with a tribe! Whilst I wouldn't say it was a hate-crime, it's certainly antagonising!
I have been much affected , Sir, by your reply. The effect has been most beneficial.Can I just point out that AFFECT is both a verb and a noun.
So, to say that something has an affect on something, you are using the noun, not the verb.
The definition of affect as a noun is: a psychological term - emotion or (an emotional) response to an idea or object.
You are misusing the word in your statement.
You can only have 'an EFFECT on people', not an 'AFFECT on people'.
The wearing of facemasks might bring about an affect, but primarily, they do have an effect.
Regardless of its idiosyncrasies, the English language is a superbly versatile language.

Fcuk me you know how to bring out the best in people , that is an awful phrase.
And no you are wrong.
The reason there is more cases in the North is simple.
Boris ended the Lockdown from a very London point of view.
The cases in the North had not dropped.
You are a mentalist.

Read the news in detail and i think you might note that the main areas to have rocketed with the spread of this Virus are all in the North of UK ? .If i`m wrong i`m sure someone will point this out. I understand what you are getting at Poco but if London was getting the Virus under control when the lockdown was eased then it means that the North hadn`t gotten the virus under control ?. More students in the North ? maybe . More heavy drinkers ? possibly. Three basic rules were pushed out from Central Government 1 Wash hands often ; 2. wear a mask and 3 keep some distance between you and the next person. None of these 3 things require wealth ( such as in London) . Basic rules but did the Northerners follow them ?..

No.
What i stated was that the government looked at London and the fall in cases before easing Lockdown.
New cases in the North are relatively the same as the South , the other cases were already there,
Some areas North - North west were not ready to be taken from Lockdown.

You seem to be saying Northerners care less than Southerners ?
I'm not born here but i think you are wrong and i have stayed North and South.
Ah! But it is happening much more severely 'ooop North!
Your youth thought they were impervious to Covid. Are they laughing now?

"Read the news in detail and i think you might note that the main areas to have rocketed with the spread of this Virus are all in the North of UK ?"
Yes, plus a few areas in the Midlands and around London according to ONS stats.
"If I'm wrong I'm sure someone will point this out."
Your not wrong, just selective in your figures.
"I understand what you are getting at Poco but if London was getting the Virus under control when the lockdown was eased then it means that the North hadn`t gotten the virus under control ?"
Not all NHS coverage is equal, that is well known, the further north one gets, the less funding. England is a southern-centric state as the industry migrated globally.
"More students in the North ?"
Have you never heard of the "Golden triangle".. look it up.
"More heavy drinkers ? possibly."
Perhaps, the South is much more well known for their love of drugs, however, actual alcohol consumption is debatable based on stats concerning deaths due to addiction.

You assume the "Northern Tribes" don't wash their hands?
You assume mask wearing is less important in the North when we have seen plenty of cases in London of protestors not adhering to the "Rules"
You assume social distancing is hard for the "Northern Tribes", even though they are less demographically packed in?
Let me give you a couple of actual facts.
Cases are rocketing up due to testing not hospital admissions.
The largest positive tests come from 10-25 year olds, those who are the least threat from it.
Mostly due to mandatory testing in educational centres.
The test used to determine if someone is positive for CV-19 is the PRC check.
The designer of the PRC check has publicly stated it should not be used as a diagnostic tool.
He also stated that any result over 35 cycles should be discounted as detecting dead cells, This was proved in University studies done a few months ago.
PRC check is run cyclically to see viral load, if you test positive on the first cycle, you have a high viral load, less so on the second, even less on the third, to negligible well before 35 cycles.
Standard NHS PRC test is 40-45 cycles.
Hope that allays your thoughts on the Northern Tribes and their ignorance

Another bunch of uni kids (Supported by Momentum no doubt) who think their opinion is all that matters. They forget that we recently had an election which the Tories won by a landslide.

The number of people in hospitals with covid is higher than it was when we went into lockdown in March.
The mistake was made to bring the whole country out of lockdown together then quickly open up everything, the North was not ready for this with a higher number of cases than other areas. This now shows with the number of cases. The majority of us use hands face space but there are a lot of other factors to take into account like everywhere people have become complacent etnic groups, deprivation and so on.

The day after that landslide victory for the Tories, the very next day! they were out in central London protesting with their banners and slogans. One banner read 'Get the Tories out' I just thought wtf? we've just had a general election! What are these people on?!
