The Moonster Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 53 minutes ago, welshbairn said: ONS says 93% of UK adults now have Covid antibodies, ether from vaccination, previous infection or both. If this is at all true and the SNP are aware of it, it makes this weeks absolute PR disaster all the more baffling. Just open the fucking gates and let folk keep themselves safe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheScarf Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Face masks should be optional everywhere. Hopefully most of them going in the nearest bin. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I understanding you correctly? Unsurprisingly no. Feel free to reread the thread though. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paco Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 The ‘common sense’ victory allowing you to stand and have a pint will now see you stand in the middle of a packed pub and put a bit of cloth over your face to go for a piss, or to take the four steps to the bar. But you can stand and chat away for hours maskless with every single person in the place. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjamin_Nevis Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Swinney is an utter buffoon, f**k he even looks like a buffoon. His only worthwhile contribution to political discourse is a head-meet-desk gif. Useless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

williemillersmoustache Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 35 minutes ago, Elixir said: I suppose we are fortunate that Covid-19 and HIV aren't only infectious to a single protected characteristic so we don't have to worry about the AUTHRITARIANESSENNPEEE rounding up bus-fare and hygiene-poor rangers fans living in Edinburgh and depositing them behind a razor wire pen on St Kilda. Although I would of course wholeheartedly support such a measure. I also see that folk are, again, getting exactly what they wanted regarding nightclubs but are somehow still absolutely raging. Fair fucks lads, that's some effort. -4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
effeffsee_the2nd Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Just remove hospitality from the mask mandate law and be fucking done with it. people can chose not to go to these places or they can chose to wear a mask if they want. keep them in the supermarkets if it makes people any happier, cause that's all we seem to care about now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's not really any difference between the "Green list" and the "Amber list" if double jagged. Both still require 2x tests whatever way they dress it up. Absolute bloody nonsense. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Vojáček Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 (edited) This whole mess is caused by the ScotGov wanting to introduce rules to show they 'care more' than the UKGov. But without thinking of any practicalities associated with said rules. It's great to see these being called out and forcing u-turns. Rules for the sake of rules. Stand with a pint, chat away all day to everyone in the boozer. But when you need a pee, get that mask on for the 12 steps* to and from the toilet. Good one lads. Today has been an absolute minter for all concerned. But nobody more than John Swinney. A guy who seems out of his depth in every role he's ever been in. Spoiler *Unless your boozer of choice is a Spoons. In which case the distance to the toilet will be approximately 3/4 of a mile.
