At least base your criticism in some form of reality You can say similar things about Matt Hancock and the vaccine rollout. The man was still fucking useless. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MP_MFC Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Humza in the media saying the case rates are now following the worst case from their models?Forgive me if im wrong, but thays just not true is it?And tbh, if it is, and thats important in any way, why did Scotgov not only allow thr most social part of the year to go ahead, but close off various avenues that only drove more folk into more time mixing in private households?Someone posted the graph earlier I’m sure and it is in the wide range of their worst case scenario but it’s probably in the lower half of this range and also I believe the model was only up until late December so we’re about 2 weeks further on than it and the levelling off has begun. Hospital rates are way below, deaths and ICU more so. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least base your criticism in some form of reality He only became Health minister in May and I'd assume that most of the groundwork had already been put in place prior to that. No doubt he'll take any plaudits going though. ps. Never trust anyone who changes his team. Noticed on wikipedia when I was looking him up.

It's worth it to be swole. Just back in from chest, shoulders, triceps. Not only am I feeling pumped but I'm considerably less anxious about the imminent dystopia. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yet, I told you where I stood on this matter quite explicitly when you asked for what I thought, just last week. Indeed, I listed what I thought on the wider debate and you welcomed it. Surely, you don't need to post stupid misrepresentations on here do you? I hadn't seen that as your style at all. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her boy must have told her this. When the school manager went to class to check she found that sure enough the lad in question didn't have a filter. However, when she went to the other classes to check masks she found the other son of the mother who called, who is in a younger class had no filter in his either! The worst part of it all for me is the scaremongering that has driven young people (especially early teenage girls) to literally hide behind Ffp2 masks. It's getting to the point where the mental health impact will be irreversible. *Just to say, it's a private school so the parents have to be humoured.

George Parr Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Having a healthy amount of scepticism towards government policy is one thing but earnestly maintaining that the wearing of face masks are 'just a means of government control'' is quite another.

scottsdad Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Just been in a meeting with a colleague who claims he went up to a group of 10 guys in their early 20s in a supermarket and challenged them to put masks on...and they did. Aye right. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I checked the scotgov website there and it says any new cases from 6th January. Absolutely ludicrous logic. I tested positive pre 6th January and cannot see any logical reason why I have to isolate for 4 days longer. That will be getting fired straight in the bin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Tennis Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 7 hours ago, alta-pete said: I think that’s exactly his point. SG came up with the 500 fans idea, no one likes it, they’ll drop it and move on. Unprincipled populism. That's not his point at all. Long time lurker said: "Ultimately the SNP have always been populists as well as nationalists. If the public mood has finally shifted towards rationality rather than visceral level panic they will coast whichever wave they think will take them to independence and the usual suspects on here will change their tune overnight to fall into line with it." in response to the idea that capacity crowds will soon return to football here. The last bit of his post surely implies that his "usual suspects" backed the rule allowing only 500 fans, but will now go along with the change. As is so often the case on this thread, it's a load of rubbish. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
