Todd_is_God Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 That's just condescending waffle. The virus "doesn't like wrapping paper" - they seem to forget they are talking to adults. This cuddly dumbing down act is annoying. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 (edited) Given the Clownshoes' track record they'll no doubt uncover multiple super-spread outbreaks linked to wrapping paper in January. The sooner that gibbering imbecile is hauled in front of an enquiry and emptied from a position of public prominence, the better.

Todd_is_God Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 That doesn't work. Governments which consistently make poor decisions get deservedly criticised. You, on the other hand, are the political equivalent of a simp. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miguel Sanchez Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 1 hour ago, Snafu said: Jason Leitch sez - To ensure safety during gift wrapping and opening, Professor Leitch advised people to have hand sanitiser in the room where the Christmas gifts are. He added: “I would expect you to wash your hands before and after that activity.” I'm glad I don't watch the news or videos where this c**t is, I would have drowned the patronising shit in a barrel of hand sanitiser by now. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven W Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Noticed a few horse racing tracks' social media streams' in England have put up that, should they be placed in tiers that allow the return of spectators, then how to buy tickets will be on their website today. Meanwhile we've got Thurso FC still being told to play behind closed doors, 3 weeks after being allowed to have spectators return...... -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madwullie Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 (edited) Discussion in the previous couple of weeks about kids sending Xmas cards to each other at school, and the logistics of sending letters / bookbug books home to kids from school, and whether or not the school is risking parents and kids' health through spreading the virus on paper in this way. Apparently the school is quarantining everything for 72 hours before sending. Also, the school has written to parents and asked not to send presents in to teachers this year (fucking HATE this 'tradition' anyway) because of the risk of spreading the virus, and also because parents are more likely to be pratted this year so to save money for gifts for the kids. I presume the latest info about the virus not spreading as well on on paper/card will be extremely useful and comforting to the many parents who have been worried about this kind of thing. If only they were galaxy brains they'd have known this already and could get beelin about Dentist Leitch giving out this patronising info.

Wee Bully Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 That doesn't work. Governments which consistently make poor decisions get deservedly criticised. You, on the other hand, are the political equivalent of a simp.That’s nonsense and you know it. You are a contrarian who would criticise whatever happened. Unfortunately, not everyone in the country is as clearly intelligent as you think you are, so different messages need to be given to get through to different people. There is nothing wrong with this message - doesn’t resonate with me as we’ve made the decision that were not doing the traditional Christmas. But it will hit the mark with some. If that message, which will have taken 20 seconds to deliver, stops one person worrying about something they shouldn’t be worried about, or encourages one person to wash their hands killing the virus before it affects them, it was worth it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are getting a half day to have a "zoom party". This, as has been said, it is an absolute minter. However I may have something as bad. My work are offering people the chance to participate in a Teams Christmas sing a long. I don't think I've ever deleted an email so quickly in my life.

They're pretending taking a few days off from a global pandemic for Santa Clause is ok because a significant portion of the population have collectively stamped their feet about needing their Christmas. The public appears to be getting the level of respect it deserves. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Jean King Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Why are folk wanting the administration of a vaccine that currently doesn't exist and has not yet been approved for use handed to the army. Who has said the NHS are unable to handle this once it happens (I've clearly missed that part) ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
