Bairnardo Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 What's that wee p***k gonna do about it if I do?Are you good at something? That's the first thing hel want to know? Because killing your gran would be fine if you were, for example, also an expert in trade. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a member of the Tory government, that's technically his job. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm surprised there isn't a league table on this to see where we are in comparison percentage wise given this country's current form of forcing travelers who come back from certain countries to go into self-isolation. Here you go. The choice of countries for quarantine can be based on a local cluster, like a Greek island or a Portuguese town, so doesn't make much sense to me. Most other European countries aren't doing it. https://www.ecdc.europa.eu/en/cases-2019-ncov-eueea 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does seem very different from outdoor to indoor type transmission and cases cant be blamed on more testing anymore. It seems like people are split between denial and acceptance. Really cant see anything other than everything rising in the next few months. Todd and others denied there being any risks if we opened back up. I admit to being on the cautious side but only a few months ago we had hundreds of people dying per day so I'd rather not return to that. Also remember getting told to shut up when pubs were filled up on the last few days before lockdown. Not sure what the happy medium is, the main problem is people who will do what they want whatever the consequences. Its pointless having guidelines that cant be enforced. Three weeks, admissions through the roof again. So far I still don't see any. If the vast vast majority of people aren't getting sick then what's the problem? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked Todd’s balanced question of do you want to pretty much ignore everything that’s happened or do you want to hide in your house and die lonely and with no money, though. Sensible approach imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The differences between a government that wants to try and get back to as close to normal as they can versus one which is absolutely scared to are becoming more obvious with each announcement. There is little value now in looking at either's decisions through the lens of "the science" and trying to find and apply logic to them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
