Deaths are registered at the appropriate local authority by the family and are based on the death certificate issued by a doctor. This maybe a couple of days after the death . The daily total in any local Authority will include death from many causes some primary some secondary , My Mother's death certificate Identified two causes of Death and I think my fathers did as well.

It is easy to collate the death certificates issue in a Hospital -- those issued by various doctors in care homes etc wouldn't be collated until registered and analysised .

We're never going to get the true figure.

How many died of Covid but the reason was recorded as something else?
How many died of something else but with Covid?
How many died of something else because they stayed away from the doctor because of the current situation? I wonder if that happened to BJ Hogg who felt ill yesterday morning and died later on, but was not thought to have Covid. Maybe at another time he would have went straight to A&E?

Best guesstimate is probably the total deaths during the epidemic minus the average for a normal year.

The govt sets a testing target. The govt announces it has met its target. Who checks the claim? What verification is possible? Not much different from Trump or North Korea.

They met it the way they always do - by fiddling the figures. The total includes 40k tests that have been posted out but have neither been completed or returnedat this stage. It's akin to counting ballot papers as votes.

I set myself a target of walking round the living room of my house 2 million times by the end of April. I can now confirm that I have met and exceeded the target. :roll:

He has always been an absolute melt. Delighted he has been sacked.

The Katy Hopkins of rugby commentary. Knows exactly what he is saying all the time, in the knowledge it will gain clicks and revenue. His employers were happy to go along with it until he went to one of the untouchable topics, racism or sexism. Good riddance.

Can I assume from this that Marcus Smith belongs to an ethnic minority and isn't just a major consumer of tanning products?

He called Marcus Smith a racist name. Marcus was born in the Philippines.
I am delighted he was sacked.

A statement from Neil Francis said: “During a podcast for The Left Wing recorded on Wednesday the 14th of July I made comments about the Harlequins and England out-half Marcus Smith where I stated that he had ‘a David Beckham hair style and an Oompa Loompa tan’

Luke Fitz has gone very quiet. Hard to believe the podcast was deemed fit for publishing. Not just for being shyte.

The majority of complaints were from the Essex Boy and Oompah Loompah communities
