Leo (guided by good advisors) has impressed.
The thousands of volunteers who have stepped up to support the HSE workers should be recognised too.
I was impressed by the staff in my local Tesco recently, making sure people were staying apart and keeping the discipline.
Totally agree about Greta, she had an opportunity to make a difference when she first came to prominence but she (or her parents) over stepped the mark and now she's just a figure of derision and internet memes.

"We who do not belong to a risk group have an enormous responsibility, our actions can be the difference between life and death for many others"
The above is a quote off Greta Thunbergs instagram...
She is a 17 year old girl who is showing more leadership than a fuck load of adults.
I personally find her a bit irritating but she is by no means a zero in this or any other area. |

What is it with adult who feel the need to lambast a 17 year old girl online. She's a child. An intelligent and well spoken child who is clearly passionate about what she believes in. But instead of supporting and nurturing that passion grown ass adults are giving her shit online. Grow the fuck up. |

Leo? Seriously? He's done nothing but listening to his advisers and doing some self pr. He's a compassionless idiot. It's unbelievable how quick peeps forget all the previous failures of this government and go over to applaud him/them for doing what he's told by his advisers and what every other country is doing.
The proper heroes are all frontline personnel that keep this country going. |

Sam Smith for posting his melt down after a week of social distancing in his 12 mill mansion.
Richard Branson who is worth 3.4 billion asking all virgin airline worker's to take 8 week's unpaid leave and applying for a taxpayer funded bailout.
The hero's are the Doctor's and nurses working tirelessly to help patient's. |

Heroes - NHS and other health workers, people in retail (they don't get the kudos, but where would we be without food on the shelves?), the employers who are doing the decent thing by their employees (including Tesco, Lidl and others).
Zeroes - Tim Martin, Mike Ashley, Richard Branson, Philip Green and the idiots out coughing in people's faces. |

The ordinary people who have donated to FeedTheHeros go fund me page.
Hero’s.
The face to face retail staff who keep us all fed.
Hero’s. |

If you're going to be prominently in the public eye then you've got to be prepared for the criticism.
Yes she is intelligent, she's passionate and she's benevolent but that doesn't mean I have to like her. |

Total zeros, but they always were, Boris Johnson and Donald Trump
Also those people who dismiss the fears and vulnerability of others with their "I'm all right Jack" attitude - no shortage of them here on fab as seen in the last couple of weeks, and worse, those who take advantage of the situation to exploit or terrorise others.
Other than that, I think most people are doing the best they can, I'm not a believer in heroes. |

Plenty of leaders don't listen to advisers or surround themselves with the wrong ones. I didn't vote FG and I'm still not likely to, but I'm fucking glad that they're the ones seeing us through this because in comparison to other countries, we're killing it right now. |

Definitely not. But there is something remarkably pathetic about adults who slag off children on the Internet. Especially considering the most they've accomplished in their own lives is unlikely to be anything of any significance. |

Absolutely nobody is saying you have to like her. You can dislike someone and still shut up about it.  |

I don't see where she has been slagged off on this thread? |

Hero's. The people working in front line that includes all the cleaners People in the kitchens and the people who need to go in and repair equipment etc .
The people who work in our shops who are on contact constantly with the public not knowing who had this virus.
The delivery drivers and suppliers who are keeping the country running still.
There are so many who need to be mentioned.
The zeros are the people who are still wandering about saying ack sure its just a flu people are over reacting. They are the ones spreading this and will be responsible for the deaths of people. And its a horrible death. They are the zeros this is not just a dose of the flu and they need to wake up before more people die. |
