I have clearly said ALL govenmnents have made some mistakes but they're all working their asses off and doing their very best for the people of their countries. What i have done is condemn those who have tried to use this virus as a stick to beat their political enemies or promote their ideology and all I'm seeing is left leaning people doing this. David Lammy using an interview to promote his book Others saying Brexit should be stopped. Even today some commie bitch in the Guardian using non white health workers in the UK as a reason why the insane levels of immigration should continue. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NikkiCFC 5,758 Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 I understand that all countries who take quarantine is more to help social workers and hospitals. To slow down virus a little bit. Because imagine all at once, no health system in the world would be able to handle that. So if Sweden think they can handle situation in their one way nothing wrong with that I think.

Vesper 21,825 Posted April 6, 2020 Author Share Posted April 6, 2020 In English: King Carl XVI Gustaf's address to the nation https://www.thelocal.se/20200405/in-english-king-carl-xvi-gustafs-address-to-the-nation King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden spoke about the coronavirus crisis and the road ahead in a televised address to the nation. The speech was broadcast by public broadcaster SVT at 7.20pm on April 5th. Watch it here or read the Swedish transcript here. Read the official English version, translated by the Royal Court, below. The week leading up to Easter is commonly called Holy Week. Today, Palm Sunday, marks the beginning of this solemn week. And in many places the mood is more solemn than ever. Covid-19 has Sweden and the world in its grip. Streets and squares are empty and quiet. The pandemic has dealt a major blow to our businesses, workers and the Swedish economy – to Swedish society as a whole. At the same time, in other parts of our society, the week ahead will be all but quiet. Civic mobilisation is taking place. I am thinking in particular of the health care sector. There, employees and volunteers are now working – together – to save as many lives as they can. This is a huge task. It requires courage. And it will require endurance. To all of you involved in this vital work, I offer my heartfelt thanks. Let us turn our thoughts to everyone who is working to ensure that the rest of Sweden continues to function – despite the constraints of the situation and despite the risks to their own health. And to those of you making sure that older people receive the care they need, that we can buy food, that public transport continues to operate, and everything else we so easily take for granted – my warmest thanks to you all. As I mentioned, Holy Week leads us to Easter. For me, and for many people in our country, this is an important celebration and one we look forward to. It is a time when we are keen to travel and perhaps spend time with family and friends. Many go to church. But, this Easter, some of this will not be possible. We have to accept this. We have to rethink, prepare ourselves for staying home. We might feel sad about this. But there will be more Easter holidays. After all, for most us, this will require relatively minor sacrifices – especially if we compare this to falling seriously ill or losing a friend or member of our family. Today, I am thinking especially of all the children in our country who are now at risk of losing grandparents. Of missing out on the security and wisdom they can offer. For their sake, we must act responsibly and selflessly. Everyone in our country has this obligation. Each and every one of us. There is still a great deal of uncertainty. But one thing is certain: we will remember these times and look back on them. Did I think about other people? Or did I put myself first? We will have to live with the choices we make today, for a long time to come. They will impact many. Easter will soon be here. And whether or not we celebrate it, I believe that we can embrace its message: The journey is long and arduous. But in the end, light triumphs over darkness, and we will be able to feel hope again. In a few weeks' time, I will be 74. That's quite an age. But this also means that I have experienced many of the crises that our country has endured. I have seen how crises help us to re-evaluate, to distinguish between important and unimportant. How fear turns into an understanding of the seriousness of the problem and how it can be solved. And one thing I have learned is this: however deep or protracted a crisis becomes, it will ultimately come to an end. And when this one does, we will all benefit from the consideration and strength that the Swedish people are now demonstrating. This strength will be an asset to our country – in the future that we are longing for. It remains for me now to wish you and everyone in Sweden an enjoyable Easter – in spite of everything. And though it might be hard, remember: You are not alone. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fulham Broadway 14,637 Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 ”As the virus spread into Europe in mid- February, an alert prime minister would have taken immediate charge, turbocharging preparations, aware that a possible pandemic posed a grave danger to Britain. Instead, Johnson vanished from public view for 12 days, most of it spent on a private holiday with his pregnant fiancée at a palatial country house“ – NEW YORK TIMES, 23 MARCH 2020 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
