    @missnikkip88 @AndyBurnhamGM Not true. Wuhan got 24 case last week & locked down everything. Target 11 million tests in a week. They have a good working TTTI & a coherent stategy, clear messaging & effective leaders. We have a buffoon leading an inept circus. Source: friend living in city new year skype.

    @The_Night_Moon Yeah older people (over 70) should not be visited bc too risky. Visiting parents here is noo problem. Up to five persons could meet each other here. We were four sooo its ok. Yeah Skype is a good solution too.

  • AllianceHarrow HA2 Residents Association (@AllianceHarrow) reported

    @Nice_Georgia_x I was on skype yesterday with a old schoolfriend who now lives in Wuhan. He told me about their systems. They had just had 24 cases & locked down the whole city. Mandatory & effective phone app. No app, no shopping. They plan to conduct 11 million tests over the next week.

  • purple_dragon25 kelly (@purple_dragon25) reported

    Issues with @SkypeSupport yet again. Every SINGLE time I log on and load skype up, I get "logged out for my security". Pathetic, they can't even sort out issues that have been ongoing for MONTHS. There are NO security issues with my laptop. None.

    @AshleyB65871813 No, you seem to be forgetting. The constant messing me around on Skype, not speaking to me for hours, name-calling, putting me down, the lying. LOOK, we are EXES, okay? That's how it is. This isn't normal, you know I blocked your accounts do you follow me on a new one? Just STOP.

    @AndyGra71826480 @GuendouziFan @Nigel_Farage That will generally involve higher costs for UK consumers, less employment opportunities which both work to impact people’s cash flow - then there’s the issues around travelling to EU countries & even our access to things like Skype abroad etc. all reducing our standard of living
