The amount of people telling her to quote the Magna Carta is frightening.

 

As Tony Hancock said: "Does Magna Carta mean nothing to you? Did she die in vain?"

This is an utter fucking farce.  9 months of absolute shite being wasted for a few days and undoubtedly at least a month of crap after as a result.
Also,  Who the f**k selected the dates?  The biggest part of the Xmas period is between Xmas and new year.  Especially with it being on a Friday this year how the f**k are 23rd/24th being included?   Those working on Xmas are being completely fucked here, suffering the consequences of this decision yet not being included in the benefits.

This is a bit OTT, the rules proposed for Christmas are not particularly different to what was allowed for a fair chunk of the summer before the second wave came along. The idea of it being 9 months wasted would imply that every single person saved by the initial lockdowns is now going to get ill.

I think you will find that OTT is the modus operandi of many contributors to this thread.

Have to agree with beccawoodsx that NHS workers are some of the worst offenders for not following the rules. I also like how Becca has styled herself as some sort of hero, saving people’s mental health in these testing times and putting herself at risk. Respect, pay Becca footballer’s wages.

Elgin City hoping to have fans back this weekend. They have a meeting with Moray Council on Thursday and details will be revealed thereafter.

That'll be nearly 4 weeks since they were placed in tier 1.

No wonder the whole thing is shambles - so you have the Scottish Government, the SFA, the JRG, the local authority and lastly the club itself all having its own wee say in what can and cannot be done.

Rightly or wrongly, you just know that when crowds go back in parts of England next week, they won't have to go through the same convoluted process with the long, drawn out end result being nothing more than pilot level numbers.

She also grasses herself as a super speared saying she has been in contact with loads of people and after they left her shop they had Covid :geek She's so dense light bends round her.

10 pages since the speccy Magna Carta hairdresser and not a single 'wid'.

Fucking disappointing.

In this thread it really needs to be a mid 50s dinner lady with hairy legs, pubes visible at belly button level and one of those rubber nurses uniforms still dripping with the photographer's yellowing spunk to achieve a wid fyi

I'm totally stunned that a Fiat 500 Twitter beautician who probably failed Nat 5 maths doesn't understand how global pandemics work.

New Year is shite who cares

No more or less shite than Christmas that governments are in thrall to at the moment. At least New Year is traditionally the more important Scottish holiday of the two.

The reality is that you could have fifteen households mixing over fifteen days and there wouldn't be too much of an impact - if you decided to first close down non-essential workplaces and the infection factory schools from December 11 and don't reopen them until the middle of January. It is the government's desire to keep the schools open 'as normal' that guarantees that the virus will be firing between households and then back onto the community by early January. A five day mixing window with literally no firebreak before or afterwards is yet again one of the worst possible decisions.

The only upside is that it provoked a frothing meltdown from Devi Sridhar on the news last night, who is now bemoaning why oh why people don't wait until April 2021 to celebrate anything when there is a <1% fatality virus pottering around and oh you'd better do everything outdoors again. She must have bunked off to South Africa or somewhere on the fly when Zoom took over from physical meetings. Funnily enough Sridhar and the gang still aren't willing to put their beloved schools policy in similar cold storage: if the vaccine is coming over the horizon after all then they can just catch up on their education over the summer of 2021 instead.
