Stellaboz Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Just now, Dawson Park Boy said: Probably correct. The sooner the better and then we can all move on. Whats your problem? It was the manner of the report, in that this variant is deadly etc. It's a mild fucking cold at worst for the vast, vast majority of people. Agreed, the sooner it shifts through all of us and becomes a laughable, seaside league virus the better (if it isn't already). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Covid in Scotland: Nightclubs still waiting on Covid funding support - BBC News This is the reality of NS's "caring more" optics stunt. They put restrictions on these sector's before having any money to support them, gambling that WM would do the same a few days later and thus provide funding. Then they threaten them with less support if they dare to repurpose and trade as a bar in the interim period. Then just don't support them at all. It makes yesterday's decision to keep them closed an extra week even more disgraceful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron Aldo Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 I think it’s going to be hard to wean people off the fear from Covid Lots of people still unwilling to socialise “just in case” despite being fully vaccinated I've never been scared of getting Covid and that's even more of the case now with Omicron.I think the "fear" for a lot of people is getting it and having to isolate for what, in essence, appears to be a cold.I got married a few weeks ago and in the run up to it my (now) wife, myself and a lot of guests were giving most social occasions a miss to avoid catching Covid and having to miss the wedding. Like that, I'm due to go on honeymoon next week and have been lying low until then. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume people struggling to pay the heating bills or keep the kids fed can feel warmth and full of Nicola’s care? I hope the industry takes these tossers to court and wins big. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, jetting off next week myself and have to do a pre flight test to get into the USA, the only thing im worried about with Omicron is not getting away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got it days after my booster and had no symptoms, so had no idea that I had it. Only did a test as my wife tested positive, having suffered a bad reaction to her booster and still.not feeling 100%. Didn't have any specific plans over Christmas, but that was ten days in the house which is far from ideal. Bring something like a holiday into the equation and the problems multiply where you have a preflight test - the whole holiday is cancelled or you get stuck in another country for ten days, and what is work going to think about that? It's a nightmare. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Jean King Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Boris deserves a hammering and he should clearly resign, but there is something I don't particularly like about this "here is a story about a random constituent who died". There's been one of those at virtually every PMQs / FMQs since this all started. Today was never going to be any different. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detournement Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Looking back at the initial lockdown on my phone one of my friends had a party in their garden the first Saturday in June (a week after the Boris party) with about 20 people and it didn't seem like we were doing anything particularly abnormal. Loads of people were having BBQs and big outdoor meet ups during that really warm spell. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievably bad luck for us to be laboured with the worst possible Prime Minister at this time. It's like he's actually trying to get sacked. Hopefully whoever replaces him enacts some laws that makes them accountable rather than relying on honour. Until they stop sending public money into donors pockets I think he will be able to hold on. As always never trust a Tory. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like he's actually trying to get sacked. He's not trying to get sacked. He's under pressure because he didn't introduce extra restrictions and he has shown the farcical restrictions in Scotland, France, Germany etc to be completely pointless. When he was following the script the media done his bidding and ignored all these parties. -3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wouldn't surprise me if there was some sort of nonsense token legislation to hive off the sheer open sleaze of Boris's leadership while they continue pressing on with the insane ghoulish shite in this article: https://gal-dem.com/every-bill-the-tories-are-trying-to-pass-2022/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
