Billy Jean King Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 I assume that there will still be the free tests for specific sectors?That was already confirmed when the UKG initially made the announcement . Hospitals, care homes the elderly and the clinically vulnerable were the exceptions then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Not seeing the SG talk much about a 'Four Nations' approach any more, now that they're increasingly the odd ones out in clinging onto mandatory safety theatre. It's almost as if they weren't concerned about the disparity in decision-making at all! 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was always clear what "four nations approach" meant tbf - it's always been "as tight and OTT as we want" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to guess that for places that will likely still demand them (such as care homes for visits) your going to have to pay borris' mates out your own pocket rather than from your taxes for the privalidge 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elixir Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Was Sturgeon not meant to be making her wee weekly speech today? How long are they planning on dragging the utter arse out of the remaining pantomime? Another day of being the only country in Northern Europe that either hasn't already scrapped the nonsense, or has announced when it will be going. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still in recess this week I'm sure she wouldn't impose restrictions on us during recess, though.

Enjoy paying for your LFTs. Reveal hidden contents I don't pay for my LFTs, I don't live in the UK. Nonetheless, you've already paid the Government's pals for about 1000 tests for every man, woman and child in the country, and folks who are conscientious enough to want to take one if they're going into a higher risk environment are going to have to do so again. I realise that won't be you because you're scared of wee bits of cloth and have been using this thread to scream about how much Sturgeon hurts your fee-fees to a willing circlejerk of similarly sociopathic snowflakes for months, but if you did want to flex the last remaining bits of grey matter, the more pertinent point should be that folks who possibly can't afford to pay for LFT's, because they're trying to pay for gas or food, may spread more Covid about, and then nasty wee Jimmy Krankie will have to threaten you some more. That's probably what you want tho, isn't it? -13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do we still need all this performance for hospitals, GP surgeries, dentists, etc.? Just think of all the extra appointments which could be offered without all this malarkey. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
