Can’t give a straight answer to a simple question. Starmer was the same on Marr yesterday.

Not far away.

UK arrivals are "sub human" that's a bizarre take. Seems you are quoting me with a response to a totally different issue ! Sorry. Im just letting off steam about the whole situation. Complete nonsense.

Time to bin the lot and just treat this like a normal respiratory disease. I read somewhere that’s what Norway has done. Fed up seeing people going about looking subhuman.

Have the buses all stopped running in your area? Where I live there are far too many.

There’s a lot in what you say but we’ve constantly changed the Chairma,BOD and CEO’s over the last few years and it’s not really got us anywhere. Remember Doug Henderson, Margaret Lang, Lex, Colin Liddell, Andy Thomson, Martin Ritchie ? Probably more but I’ve forgotten. Oh yes - Craig Campbell, the tent man and Kieran. Big turnover. We’ve got to stop somewhere.

Maybe I’ve got you wrong but if you believe in free speech, why then would you object to what she said? No problem with me. Words never did any harm. Dont like her at all but she can say what she likes.

Not being critical or anything, but I keep hearing of people constantly doing tests. Some even 2 or 3 times a week. Why is this? You just said you didn’t have Covid symptoms. All very strange?

As someone who’s watched Falkirk longer than most on here, I’ve not commented much recently as I really just don’t know what should happen. Im no expert on the intricacies of football tactics, coaching, etc. but I do love going to games and watching us do reasonably well within the constraints of our fan base, resources, etc. We’re never going to set the heather on fire but it is galling to see the likes of Livingston, Hamilton, st. Johnstone et al doing so much better. The last few years under Hartley, McKinnon and M &M were turgid affairs with little enjoyment being served up. With Sheerin, I have actually loved watching the new playing style but maybe that’s because what preceded was just so awful. After the initial hopeful spell we have gone backwards with no end result for all the fine play. To that extent I can see where both camps of opinion are coming from. What to do? I think Sheerin, who comes over as a decent sort, needs to be given more time- probably end of October. I totally agree that his failure to adapt his formation and team selections is baffling and I would hope that Grainger would try to influence some of his decisions. However, if he is rigid in his philosophy and the results don’t improve, then the Board will need to act before it is too late. Unlike previous seasons, I don’t think it would take all that much to turn things around. Im probably a ‘sitter on the fence’ but hey- ho, I’m no expert.

Yes, that’s correct and I don’t think there is much difference between a 15year old and a 16 year old. Far too impressionable and easily influenced. 21 seems about right to me.

And yet Scotland gives the vote to 16 year olds?

Are you short of petrol, energy and food?

Good game to watch. Must get Keena on.

Still to be worked out. Shortage of LFT!s with private providers. BTW - did you get your fuel today?

A plus, however, is that you no longer need a visa to holiday in Turkey. I think it was around £20 in 2019.

Maybe you could influence them?

Well done though. Your prediction was correct.

If you had read what I said, I was asking participants on here to report their findings of shortages with a view to finding out just how significant the problem is. So far I have not experienced shortages of fuel or food. Not my outlook on life at all.

So not a single gap on your local supermarket shelves ? I've been waiting over 4 months now for work to start on a new kitchen. Was meant to be June then August now put back to October all due to building supply shortages. It's rife everywhere, to say you haven't noticed a single shortage is utter bullshit, a blatant lie. Yes, you’re correct about building materials. Absolutely. I was really referring specifically to the petrol situation. Mrs DPB isn’t reporting any supermarket problems so far. Still experiencing fabulous meals.

Well, all I can say is that I haven’t experienced any problem.

We are a 1 petrol station town. Despite said petrol station being a supermarket station and the supermarkets saying categorically they don't anticipate any issues with fuel supply, at 9.45am this morning the queue was so long the police were there trying to stop folk blocking other streets. What an uber clusterfuck. Not really down to a shortage, then, but rather due to the media hyping things up.

You’re calling for Andrew Neil?

I think you should maybe be thinking of emigration. BTW, it would be interesting if folks could report their experiences of shortages. To date, I have experienced none.

You were promising us a statement from SG regarding returning testing rules by today. Are you confident it’s coming ?

Interesting, when did they start their training exactly ? Given current backlogs they must have some foresight to have started retraining long before this crisis hit. What did these people do before their career change just out of interest ? I know a local farmer whose 2 boys have the basic HGV for rigids. They have started the ball running to upgrade to allow them to drive the biggest lorries - CatC and E, I think. The plan is to boost up their earnings from the farm by doing contract driving during the quiet times. Dont know the details regarding training, etc.
