Alex_14 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 My Aussie girlfriend has to fly home (for good) in a month. I’ve been applying for exemptions to the Australian travel restrictions for the last year in order to join her but continually get rejected (arseholes). Could be a long wait. Shite. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thereisalight.. Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 There was a freedom march in London earlier, opposing lockdown and vaccine passports. Thousand of people there yet there was no mention of it on the BBC news website. They were quick enough to have reports on those protesting the ESL, quick enough to show "covidiots" on beaches. Why not show people protesting these draconian measures? Oh that's right it doesnt fit the narrative 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Usually because these types of protests are thinly disguised far right rallies. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philpy Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 My wife had her first dose over a month ago, and has a couple of underlying health problems. I'm considering going down the "unpaid carer" route in order to get my first dose, but kind of feel a wee bit cheeky, like I'm jumping the queue. Should I just go for it??? -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aren't you the boy who's been shopping folk for having pals round? Outstanding That said, it's easy. There's no requirement to evidence that you are an unpaid carer for someone with a disability. You basically say yes or no in an online form then confirm it at your appointment. I went the same route and briefly felt guilty, then realised I am in fact an unpaid carer for my partner who has an ABI. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven W Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Getting really disheartening seeing sporting events with fans outside of Scotland. Just this weekend the snooker in Sheffield, and the WRC (World Rally Championships) in Croatia. I know we'll have 12k at Hampden in a couple of months, but you just know were it not for David Marshall's save we'd be joining Dublin in turning the games away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup. Protests questioning lockdown would be legit if it weren't for oddball anti-vaxx/Detournement types spoiling them. Also, they just give the Helen Lovejoy's the ammo for 'Omg such a slap in the face for our brave NHS heroes! ' rhetoric. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Thinly disguised right wing rally? Sounds right up the BBC's street tbh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
effeffsee_the2nd Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 I recon for football stenhousemuirs ochilview would be a great place to have a trail run at a sell out crowd with no masks or SD, youd need volunteers for it but it’s only a 3k capacity with one stand and one covered terrace, the turnstiles are the oldschool style wall back at the roadside, there are no indoor walkways or concourses ,the pie shop is a window outside and you’re only inside for the toilets themselves. Start of somewhere like that and work up the way? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On another point, I'm becoming a big fan of the complaint that we'd have given our games back to UEFA if we hadn't qualified. It's a true sign of things getting better when folk have to complain about shit that never happened. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
