‘We will overcome it’: Queen Elizabeth invokes WWII spirit amid coronavirus outbreak BY MICHAEL HOLDEN REUTERS Updated April 6, 2020 8:29 am Queen Elizabeth told the British people on Sunday that they would overcome the coronavirus outbreak if they stayed resolute in the face of lockdown and self-isolation, invoking the spirit of the Second World War in an extremely rare broadcast to the nation.

Bloomberg preaches from on high while not paying those at the bottom Corrupt and Incompetent Presidential Campaigns Are Becoming the Norm by aletho By Tim Kirby | Strategic Culture Foundation | April 7, 2020 There is certain wisdom to the statement that “no one is truly qualified to be President”.

Although some leaders may come close, there are no such perfect people to vote for. Yes, no one is qualified to be the President, but when candidates can’t even manage their electoral campaigns which they directly control...

Citing concerns with “the alarming levels of spread and severity,” the WHO called for governments to take urgent and aggressive action to stop the spread of the virus. International human rights law guarantees everyone the right to the highest attainable standard of health and obligates governments to take steps to prevent threats to public health and to provide medical care to those who need it. Human rights law also recognizes that in the context of serious public health threats and public emergencies threatening the life of the nation, restrictions on some rights can be justified when they have a legal basis, are strictly necessary, based on scientific evidence and neither arbitrary nor discriminatory in application, of limited duration, respectful of human dignity, subject ...
