Question

What would happen if all UK residents just stopped in bed?

Answer 1

That would be fun

Answer 2

British industry maintains itself by having workers on a strict routine, like pubs and bars closing down after 11pm, so that emploees can rest.

Should that routine fail, the whole industrial sector will fall apart, at least for the time this failure occurs.

Answer 3

Stopped what in bed?  Stopped sleeping?  Do you mean 'stayed in bed?'  I bet your Northern aren't you?  If every one stayed in bed then not alot would happen!  people would get hungry and covered in their own waste products, but appart from that everything will be fine!

Answer 4

There is propaganda about people living on sickness benefits. Some junior Government Minister kicks off a media debate with a carefully crafted argument and newspapers like The Sun and The Daily Mirror make it seem like an epidemic.

Hitler didn't just attack Jews. He despised the old, sick, disabled, mentally deficient, g*y etc and we now live in a society that bullies the poor, sick, different and needy because it interferes with our collective greed.

We are becoming a less tolerant society generally and I for one think we should stay in bed.........not just for the sake of it though. Let it be on the day voting begins for the general election. That way they will get the message they are no longer leading us and they would have to change.
