Well, it's the last day of April and I am drained. What can we rant about today.

So, in America there is two headlines circulating, the first been that Amazon sites outside the US are being placed on the notorious business list and the second is Trump says China wants him to loose the election. 

Well for the first, it seems that Amazon sites everywhere else except in the US sells fake goods online which may be true for some, but may or may not be true world wide. It is purely because items in other countries are cheaper than in the US, so shoppers buy those items instead and Trump doesn't like that even though he has businesses outside the US making his family richer. Also it is said Trump did it because he hates the Amazon founder and states Amazon doesn't pay enough taxes, which in part is true, but Amazon does at least show their tax returns where Trump still hasn't allowed his tax returns to be viewed even though he should have before been elected as president, so again Trump holds himself above everyone else on the planet.

So, secondly Trump believes China wants him to lose his re election race because of his trade wars with them and the coronavirus, but what he doesn't understand is that it's not just China who wants rid of him, it's the whole F****** planet, maybe with the exception of Russia and North Korea who are benefiting from having this idiotic narcissist in office.

So how about back in dear old Blighty, well the papers are going with two different headlines. The first is how thee UK is on course to have the highest number of coronavirus deaths in Europe and the second is about the birth of Johnson's baby boy. In my opinion the first should take precedence over the second as its Johnson's governments handling of the pandemic which has caused such a high death count by cost cutting and not stockpiling or buying the right PPE in the first place, but instead trying to breakaway from Europe which is totally stupid. Also I couldn't give a flying F*** about Johnson's illegitimate b******, let alone need to hear or see it in the news, how is that really newsworthy even if we weren't in the middle of a pandemic where it is said, a third of people admitted to hospital with the virus will die. That is just heartbreaking!!!

Anyway for some better news, Captain Tom turns one hundred today, happy birthday Sir Tom Moore. He has raised thirty million pounds (£30,000,000), been made an honorary colonel in the army, Been presented with a replacement Second World War Defence Medal ahead of next week's VE Day celebrations and has received a flypast of a Spitfire and Hurricane from the RAF Battle of Britain Memorial Flight, based at RAF Coningsby, which made three passes of his house to mark the occasion. That is how you honour a hero Mr Johnson and Mr Trump.

Rant you tomorrow!
