      There are long queues outside Primark....

      People must be dressing up for their zoom calls.

        The people in the queues mostly look like they are in their teens and twenties, so why else would they be panic buying cheap clothes in a pandemic when you can't go out?

          There's feck all reason to stockpile in the first place, during the first lockdown there would've been no shortages if it wasn't for all the ******* buying tons of crap for no apparent reason. Seems like some Brits just can't grasp the idea that carrying on as normal means supermarkets restock as normal which means shopping is like normal.

          Has anyone see this level of imbecile'ism outside of the UK?

            Yes, idiots here too although this time it's not quite as bad as the first lockdown. The only thing I've seen less of on the shelves is bogroll, otherwise it seems pretty okay
            Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.
