bendan Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Sturgeon is quoted as saying "There is a strong emphasis in the first phase on outdoor activity because one of the things we are learning about this virus is the risk of transmission outdoors - although not zero - is nevertheless lower than the risk indoors" Hasn't this been well known for a long time now? I wish they would share more information on where (they think) infections are taking place and how. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly before the start of lockdown in uk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's mental to think they'll do anything other than brass neck this out until everyone's got other things to talk about. Anyone been watching this lot for the past few years.... at all? Yep, Cummings basically is the government. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergeant Wilson Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Are people less judgemental these days and is it a good or bad thing? If I'd met Cummings at any time in my, or his, life I'd have picked him out as a complete roaster, best avoided. Just by looking at him, before he uttered a sound, yet he has worked his way through society and made a career that allows him influence. Why, how? It seems more prevalent these days. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of them will say a thing about Cummings and a largely compliant media will undoubtedly neglect to ask them for their comments either. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Cort's Hamstring Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 I did used to think that some of the criticism she got was way over the top, but Jesus Christ. I'd also be interested to know if they managed to drive 250 miles with a 4 year old in the car and not have to stop at a services at any point. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you'd better be careful before throwing around defamatory allegations like "sociopathic moron" and "genius" on a Scottish football forum about the likes of Peter Mandelson. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteRoseKillie Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Now that we have an antibody test, I would just like to see Johnson, Hancock, Cummings and any other of this crew (Dorries, for example)who claims to have had the virus tested live at the result briefing, and the results shared with the nation. Johnson in particular went through the whole thing suspiciously quickly it for me, and I'm not convinced anyone's first thought when symptomatic would be to drive the length of England. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like Cummings at all but he doesn't seem to try to hide who he really is in the way people in those positions usually do. We seem more tolerant of that than before. He's an example of the downside. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O'Kelly Isley III Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 In a sense it will be better for those of us who detest this Tory Government if Cummings and the rest of them brazen it out, as he will become the political equivalent of a piece of dogshit stuck to your shoe and a constant reminder of this shoddy episode.The alternative of him 'resigning' would be symbolic anyway as I'm sure he'd continue to pull Johnson's strings from the shadows, whilst fully maintaining his dialogue with Kuenssberg and the rest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
