So another day, not another pound or dollar depending on which side of the pond your on. So let's see what there's to rant about today.

Well the big news out of America is Trump has put a halt to the funding of the world health organisation saying "I am directing my administration to halt funding while a review is conducted to assess the World Health Organisation's role in severely mismanaging and covering up the spread of the coronavirus", so once again it's not his fault, it's somebody else's, 'WOW!', can this guy stoop any lower. Well yes he can because he has also put a delay on stimulus payments, so his name can be added to the paper cheques as if he is personally paying the public himself, what a F****** ego this guy has.

Speaker Pelosi publicly blamed Trump for dismantling the specific infrastructure set up by the previous administrations which was meant to plan for and overcome a pandemic. You got wonder what or which Americans actually voted this idiot in to the Whitehouse in the first place which in my opinion is a F***** up system when a person who has no experience of working in a government position can skip to the front of the line and put themselves forward to run a country just because they have more money. It should be put in to the constitution that you can only run for president if you have first been a senator followed by a governor of a state like any proper employment or military body, you work your way up the chain at least to become primeminister in Britain you have to start in local council, moving up to minister within one of the parties.

So back in dear old Blighty, talking of the primeminister at least he has kept out of the news for another day, but the issue's with care homes is worsening and as the death toll rises the government have finally accepted it's time to test staff and residents who show symptoms, but that's like closing the stable after the horse has bolted because yet another care home has reported fifteen deaths which is just unacceptable. This virus is killing off a generation of people who were the backbone of the country during and after the second world war and they deserve better than to be left to die. Has society really dropped so low that it's everybody for themselves, well thankfully it isn't.

Because speaking of backbone, in happier news it has been reported that ninety nine year old war veteran Tom Moore has raised four million pounds in aid of NHS charities by doing laps of his garden with his stroller and vows to keep going, good on you Tom, showing the spirit that won the war, so lacking at the moment putting the money hungry politicians to shame because their still getting paid for doing nothing. On that note that's me done for today.

Rant you tomorrow!
