Elixir Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 37 minutes ago, Burnieman said: 53 minutes ago, Elixir said: We are the only nation in Europe firing people into hotels. Well, that's if they don't just fly in from England or Ireland. Then there's the complete lack of support for the sector. Down south, they are all making preparations. Up here, there is nothing of the sort. Now, I agree that a lot of this is likely posturing in terms of when Scotland opens up compared to England, but I don't want our options being limited or forced to travel south of the border for certain flights. That just feeds into the whole 'too wee, too poor' nonsense. Tourism alone is 5% of Scottish GDP, let alone aviation and related supply chains. Without this being able to boom again in future, the economic argument for independence won't be won. Lessons should be learned from last time. There is currently no tourism, so the hotel quarantine issue is largely immaterial, unless you seriously think they'll retain it for flights from Malaga or Tenerife when travel/tourism resumes. It doesn't set a good precedent for a future bounce back, though, when there is clearly a lot of pent up demand. The mood music isn't exactly clear or positive for lifting quarantine either. Even if it's 'largely immaterial' on paper, it is terrible messaging for the industry. Imprisoning people who may have had to return home for say, compassionate reasons, is also absurd. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In light of this, you can currently book an EasyJet flight from Manchester to Palma a few days later. Guess where EasyJet have no scheduled flights from? That's right, Scotland. It's absolute head in the sand stuff to expect airlines not to react to the SG's dithering by shelving routes from Scottish airports, however temporary, which will have wider reaching consequences than "they might be back in a year or two" I'm sure people desperate to fly from Scotland to Palma with easyjet can wait a whole 12 days after the UK indicative date to fly out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If its SG uncertainty affecting route availability, why are those flights still operating pre and post 17th May?Head in the sand stuff? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone in our family has been vaccinated according to the JCVI list. You’ve always come across as an utter superior c**t on here, but this takes the biscuit. f**k you. Think you have misread the post. It looked like he was suggesting that carers should have been higher priority not accusing you or anyone of queue jumping. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeTillEhDeh Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Anyone booking holidays will need to bear in mind that under the SNP, men will not be allowed out the house after 6 pm. Make sure you book early flight times.I think you're confusing youself with the dictats of Priti Patelpine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnieman Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Domestic restrictions should not last a day beyond groups 1-9 being given both doses.I dont disagree, but worst case scenario as things stand is absolute normality comes 1st September, or at least it should do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeTillEhDeh Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Hopefully Sannox will chip in so we can get a proper Minter pun.Totally off topic but when one of my mates text me that Hagler was gone I soon came across YouTube footage of the Minter fight. It's utterly savage, brutal stuff. A total beating worse than anything you see in the likes of UFC today.What was better was the looks on the faces of the hordes of NF members supporting Minter that night.Luvvly jubbly!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidkennedyshand Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 I don't know, Braehead Primary has a dozen teachers plus some pupils with covid, Dalmilling Primary and Heathfield Primary are also closed. Braehead and Dalmilling are right next Whitletts and Heathfield is not even a mile away.Add St Johns too. At least 1 class been told not to go in tomorrow due to positive case. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
