Left Back Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 1 hour ago, Elixir said: Good to see a lot of criticism and pushback of the travel testing farce across the BBC today. But also this: Aye, fully vaccinated people not wearing masks on the tube will lead to another lockdown. If the numbers wearing masks are the same what is the point of making it law? If the police had better things to do than enforce it previously they have better things to do now. By his own admission removing the legal requirement has made no difference to “compliance” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 (edited) Grant Schnapps saying that 90% of UK holiday makers in Spain take a PCR test instead of the required antigen test before flying home, ie 100 odd euros instead of 30 odd euros. I would suggest that's a bared face lie Mr Schnapps, and do you happen to have a relative flogging travel pack PCR tests you can take with you from home?

Caught a bit of the evening news and a guy from TUI (I think) basically said bullshit, the packages people buy from us are LFT’s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Calder asked the Department of Transport for the data to back it up, and they said they don't have any. It's such a ridiculous lie, like pretending that putting France on the quarantine list and delaying putting India on red was data driven rather than purely political.

For someone who had a go at me yesterday for repeating my point about masks, you've got quite a cheek there Marshy boy.

My Australian partner reckons it’s because by keeping them in the country, it’s technically another Australian they’ve ‘repatriated home’ and boosts the stats. Makes sense. Well, it’s mental, but it’s an explanation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Left Back Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 After deciding the other day to cancel our holiday in September Mrs. Back has been unable to get through on the phone lines (cancel is the wrong word, we have to re-arrange which TUI only let you do by phone). We weren’t overly concerned as we still have a couple of weeks to sort it and be outside the 28 day departure date. Unexpectedly got an email from TUI tonight that they were cancelling our holiday which meant we got back the 20% bonus voucher offer if we rebook rather than take the cash refund. Now rebooked for Dubrovnik next June which is where we’d planned to go last June. Glad she couldn’t get through now as it means we’ve not had to pay £200 more to get the original holiday we had booked, Surely this travel madness will be over by then and the testing nonsense will be in the bin. In my experience the holiday companies have been extremely good at dealing with this pish. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sentiment may be correct but in principle I’d have far more faith in numbers being reported correctly in the developed world. Not defending the actions here but trying to dig beyond the sensationalism. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a series of knots to tie yourself in to avoid just ditching masks altogether. Edited August 5, 2021 by Todd_is_God 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
