The wife has a colleague who was meant to come for dinner tomorrow but us now shiting it because NEWVARIANT. Apparently she's away to visit her elderly mother a week after and wants to reduce the risk. Just go f**k off then. We even just got a negative test result yesterday as we can get them free again here. But apparently its normal to get scared out your wits about something THAT WE DONT HAVE. I take it your wife’s colleague is tidy af. I’d be delighted they called it off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little is known about this variant at the moment and talking of the "need to go further" and "doing anything to keep the population safe" just sounds ridiculous until all the facts are known. That's pretty well her message if you take the interview as a whole. 45 minutes in. https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m00123k0/the-andrew-marr-show-28112021 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 I honestly thought we'd seen the end of the insufferable headless chickens and the shrieking panic merchants but they seem to have found their purpose again in the last week or so. I swear to god, they are absolutely loving this. This is their "world war 2" moment and they're not keen on letting it pass them by. They are absolutely fucking gagging for Omicron to be a disaster so they can say they told us all so. I see Deepti Gurdasani has already started with that particular tone and she's not alone. You do begin to wonder at which point things will ever get back to normal.Its always going to be about leaving these melts behind, not convincing them to move on.A variant scare turning out to bw not much really would actually be a big help in that regard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Precisely the sort of stuff that has people lashing out and becoming agitated. Hardly a surprise that the expectations of harsher restrictions are always there given the amount of time spent hinting of it. This is aided and abetted by the media, who seem permanently desperate for harsher restrictions. It's always on their mind. The lines of questions yesterday were as depressing as they were predictable - basically why hasn't the government gone harsher. Once again the messaging has been predictable and we're back to the usual hint hint nonsense. It's becoming more than tedious reading that a politician has said x but they are doing this so that the people do y in an effort to prevent them having to do x. It's time their remarks were taken at face value and questioned. To have Whitty out yesterday talking about possible immune escape and then Johnson wittering about expanding the booster roll out (who saw that coming!) was genuine head in the hands stuff as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTee Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Sweeper for first case of Omicron? in Scotland. Wednesday morning - Edinburgh. Anyway, hopefully it doesn't come to much and blows over without a fuss. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to have a reasonable conversation about things, you need to do a bit less talking and a bit more listening to what others are saying to you. It's crystal clear you're not bothering to listen to what I have to say, let alone actually engage in any thought. For that reason, I'll wish you well and leave you to it. Here's the thing, I think you are a dangerous charlatan and the next time you want to have a reasonable conversation about things, don't tell easily disprovable lies and don't place your dogshit opinions in a magic tower above those of others. I don't wish you well and I'll happily continue to go in two footed every time you spin some nonsense for attention and internet points as I believe what you are doing and the way you go about it has the potential to do harm. I hope that's crystal clear and will engage whatever you have by way of a conscience in thought and with any luck, silent refection. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TheScarf Posted November 28, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 28, 2021 Do you lads know we can still vote for an independent Scotland and still call out the fucking laughable and often misleading statements from the Scottish Government?

I've not reared my head on this thread for months because frankly, I've had more important things going on in my life and covid and the associated restrictions and wailings sort of melded into background noise but it's no surprise to see you are still one of the most ill-informed folk on the entire thread and continue to post with a level of self-confidence and certainty that is bordering on parody. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The virus is going to continue to mutate until the end of time. Cases are coming down UK wide and we have seen this reaction. The UK now has extremely high levels of immunity in the population, so what is going to be different this time next year or every year after? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe 'caring' Nicola wants to keep more Africans out? Does she only pretend to care about the folk coming here in dinghies because she suspects there's political capital to be made from that as well? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
