Worth noting that for all the frothing , the rage and the total meltdowns about our children getting seriously sick and potentially using them as guinea pigs to let it run rampage, this is the total number of hospital cases in children in Scotland since the start of the pandemic. This is where the current rage and 'terror' is being directed.

And the total number of deaths in Scotland since the start of the pandemic.

 

This is the hill these zero covid nutters choose to die on.

2.3% of all hospital cases.

0.00038% of all deaths.

Such people need genuine help.

It’s just another social media pathetic left vs right tribal thing. It started with trump being so anti COVID restrictions so folk on Twitter felt compelled to show anti trump and caring they are. 

The folk who protest any covid restrictions regardless of circumstances are equally as bad. 

Remember when the 'progressives' were calling Trump xenophobic and unhinged for shutting the borders?

I can't quite remember when the 180-flip came.

People trying to look and sound serious whilst using the phrase “Variant Factory” all over the TV this morning 

This is just the latest in the chain that started with “we may never have a vaccine”

People who thinks 'vArIaNtZ' have a greater chance of occurring in a highly vaxxed population, are cretins.

Is there a bigger weed in British politics than Jonathan Ashworth, btw?

You can only catch the Lambada variant if you're dancing anyway. All ballet teachers and u18 disco djs to be furloughed forthwith.

If I remember my high school physics...

Lambda = VL

[welshbairn]

What happened to the Epsilon variant anyway, too many syllables?

Some of the responses to the announcement about easing that I've seen on social media are completely crazed.  This isn't just the attention seeking types that usually get posted in this thread - it's people I know, who seem to essentially think that Boris Johnson wants everyone to die.  Quite a bit of it is the misery-guts misanthropic leftist phenomenon that is pretty common on social media and a lot of it is also independence supporters who hate the Tories - I can only assume that Scotland following the lead on reopening a couple of weeks after England won't be seen as evidence of genocide.

It's insanity, I'd say the vast majority of my pals who I talk politics with are that way minded - regularly quoting Devi, Deepti etc.

Inevitably, it involves playing down the vaccines and feeding all sorts of antivax narratives. 

It's hidden under a guise of caring and being "left wing" but ultimately it's about ego and virtue signalling.

Wish to f**k government would find a vaccine for woke and cancel culture, or simply make them a crime with a 10 year min jail term. 

Sadly those self serving c***s are also the ones who engender this shit to create division and polarise society for political ends. 

Now, I hope all those self entitled lazy basrds on the pretend WFH are preparing to get their lazy bone arses back to the office on July 19 or face the sack! 

Ah but the school holidays...! 

Through the worst of Covid we many a brave health worker and many others putting their life on the line to save others, yet these self entitled wankers now giving it, ah but we can still WFH. Couldn't mark their neck with a fucking blow torch. 

Can see many tribunals over the next few years, as the LB self entitled mob remain in denial. Ah but.... 

With the backlog due to Covid should be two years without any dosh and get f**k all at the end of it. Hell mend the dodgers.

Another c**t to add to the ignore list.

All the talk on here is about what’s happening in a country whose rules don’t apply to us on public health.

When do we hear from our great leader?

My work are expected to announce this afternoon that WFH will now become the default position post pandemic, and expect to sell a couple of floors in both Glasgow and London back to the landlord, keeping only one floor in each location for meetings, interviews etc…

Delicious.

Boris is still a dopey twat.

Nicola is still a dithering twat

Devi is a pivoting twat

Deepti is the new public enemy number one.

I'm writing a 1984 but for Cancel Culture, a clapback against wokeism, which will be so hated that I will be forced to enter witness protection and relocate to Belize.

It's over. The vac #scenes have won. Still some pockets of bed wetting resistance.
