Government writing letters to stop large get-togethers?!

That same guy who **ebenzo **posted about with temporary blindness (which apparently he STILL has) tells me a boat party he has organized for 150 people may have to be canceled due to the swine flu pandemic. And apparently, the government sent him a letter saying there was a chance of cancellation.

Is that even possible?!

its not a pandemic its a hamdemic

If you receive leaflets warning about the consumption of tinned pork and how it might put you at risk of contracting swine flu - ignore them, it's just spam.

the government sent him a letter saying there was a chance of cancellation.

Yes, this is how it works.

dont get it? why arent any festivals cancelled? is it a regional thing?

Festivals are generally attended by young unwashed people. The Government doesn't really care about them.

the state would be quite happy for a few workshy soap dodgers to get ill and die.

oh swine flu again is it?

so this'll be taking the heat off Gordon Brown planning to alter laws so he can stay prime minister and appointing Mandleson as Minsiter for everything, Archbishop Of Canterbury and King of England following the fact that people would rather vote BNP than for his government.

good old swine flu, made people forget about the police killing innocent bystanders during protests, nearly helped the gov. get away with MP expense scandals but not quite..yes, deffo to bring out the pandemic again.

Wow RPM that's some splendid paranoia you got going there. It's not the British government that has declared a pandemic. Unless you think the WHO is secretly controlled by Gordon Brown? I mean, obviously, he killed Princess Diana and snatched little Maddie and I am fairly sure I caught the bastard virus I have had all week off him but not the WHO? Not the WHO?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
