Passengers on Diamond Princess liner ‘disillusioned’ with government over lack of action

Pressure is growing on the British government to airlift citizens stranded on a cruise ship stricken by coronavirus, after a Chinese tourist in France became the first person to die from the disease in Europe.

I misread this sentence as 'chicken strip.'

The Diamond Princess should leave Japan and head to UK.

This is UK ship. Princess Cruise allowed 470 Wuhan Chinese who have Hong Kong passports to board. Diamond Princess held onboard parties even after it was found that the passenger was infected. Passengers had been walking freely. Obviously this is the cause

I am glad to see pressure grow. I have tried to do my part in getting the Brits off the ship.

Leave them there. It's better we leave them and pay them a bit of compensation when they come back, than risk infecting the population.

Wild dogs kill 16 animals at UK safari park after escaping through damaged gateStaff at West Midland Safari Park left ‘extremely saddened’ by loss of six deer and 10 sheep Mmm. African hunting dogs (or painted dogs) get a bad enough press as it is. Glad they weren't destroyed for doing what they do :( You are wrong. Dogs don't kill anything. They hunt. Killing is an activity only 'humans' do. Only doing what is natural for them. I hope they enjoyed their supper.
