Bairnardo Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Going to be some scenes when the UK and the Scottish policies on lockdown and other measures diverge, as seems like an absolute stonewaller. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandarilla Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Jean claude van manI was quite impressed with him, actually. Seemed to be both genuine, and on top of the detail. Are you kidding? Hancock couldn't persuade me to get out of a burning car. He's on now and you can see the fear in his eyes, totally out of his depth. He should stick to helping unload the vans like last week, but he'd probably just get in the road.He's unbelievable bad. It's a fucking disgrace that c**t has so much influence right now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savage Henry Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Going to be some scenes when the UK and the Scottish policies on lockdown and other measures diverge, as seems like an absolute stonewaller. Does it? They’re going from precisely the same medical advice. As far as I can tell, it would be only having London that would make any difference in policy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure they did though, sources for it aren't entirely reliable. What seems for sure though is that it doesn't follow a pretty and smooth bell chart. I don't blame China, would you trust any of these b*****ds? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Western countries are pretty much on the same curve. Did reply to one of my sons saying England would be around 10000 next Saturday, we could be on 1000. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTJohnboy Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 (edited) Just watching clips from Boris, Hancock and Nicola.... Is blowing your own trumpet some kind of an English characteristic? From what I saw of Nicola she did appear to demonstrating more of a sense of humility than the other two, with her statement.

As far as I can tell, it would be only having London that would make any difference in policy. Have to allow me some speculation on here surely? I think the UK Govt will seek to abandon some measures before Nicola is ready to do likewise. Her dismissal of the peak speculation seems to me like an early indicator that she is ready to do more and go further. Of course, like every bit of speculation on here, only time will tell. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Kincardine Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 3 hours ago, Forest_Fifer said: From wikipedia ( yeah, I know, bite me) Although procedures vary from one field of inquiry to another, they are frequently the same from one to another. The process of the scientific method involves making conjectures (hypotheses), deriving predictions from them as logical consequences, and then carrying out experiments or empirical observations based on those predictions.[5][6] A hypothesis is a conjecture, based on knowledge obtained while seeking answers to the question. The hypothesis might be very specific, or it might be broad. Scientists then test hypotheses by conducting experiments or studies. A scientific hypothesis must be falsifiable, implying that it is possible to identify a possible outcome of an experiment or observation that conflicts with predictions deduced from the hypothesis; otherwise, the hypothesis cannot be meaningfully tested.[7] Make conjecture Derive PREDICTIONS from the conjecture Test predictions. That's the key. No reproducibility means that predictions have to be treated with caution. I'm not saying ignore the scientists but we have to acknowledge that they got it dramatically wrong with bird flu, swine flu, SARS and BSE. They were also wildly wrong in the 1970s when they predicted a mini ice age. So politicians should listen to what they say and also be a bit sceptical because their track record is shite. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 1690 you would have been burnt for suggesting the Earth went around the Sun. Spoiler Maybe not historically accurate but I have a right to my own opinion sheeple!
