Clownshoes was the same on PM just after 5 on Radio 4. I was actually surprised, he was saying there was very little difference in measures between Scotland and England and more that unites our approaches. I'm not sure Sturgeon would have approved. He did mention future variants though as he scrambled for relevance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incidental admissions. As much as 60% of the hospital numbers are not being treated for covid; it is merely an artefact of everyone going in for whatever reason being tested. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody is choosing the last four weeks of a gubbins mandate as a hill to die on - then everyone should be freed of this nonsense once and for all. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scosha Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 Dunno if it was just a coincidence or not but was in Nando’s this evening in Glasgow and not a mask to be seen amongst any customers coming and going. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hard Graft Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 Had to laugh when Sturgeon mentioned that people involved in "Track and Trace" would be losing their jobs. Pity she did not show the same compassion to those in the hospitality industry when she repeatedly shafted them. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottsdad Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 BBC Scotland this morning interviewed two folk from the shielding community. I wasn't expecting quite so much anger, but the two who were on were furious. As far as they see it, removing these "protections" is discriminating against the disabled. It's a human rights violation. I think the point really needs to be made - nobody is forcing people to take off masks. If you feel safe with one on, keep it on. If you feel safer not going to the shops, don't go to the shops. If you don't feel safe at a concert/football match/meeting, then don't go. Just because the narrative is about ending the legal requirements for these things doesn't mean they are banned. Masks will carry on for many. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure many want the restrictions to stay so that they can stay at home and live off the state. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry for anyone with any underlying health problems which might put them at greater risk should they catch Covid but why is there a proportion of these people who feel that those who are fit and healthy should continue to have their lives restricted to "protect" them? It's never been the way of things before and it shouldn't be now.People from all walks of life need to take responsibility for themselves. If you feel safe doing something, go for it. If you don't then give it a miss. It really is that simple - things are starting to move on whether some like it or not. Those who don't will just be left behind. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suspect Device Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 15 hours ago, Elixir said: Good. Is that not just some Tory boy that set up his own 'hospitality group' to have pot-shots at the SNP? Just because I agree with him doesn't mean I don't question his motives. Too often this fight against restrictions has been political from both sides. I voted SNP (until about December) but I was never in the camp who seem to accept everything that the SNP do or be against everything that the Tories down south. Why can't folk look at this apolitically and just in terms of common sense. Masks are a fucking waste of time and from what I can see have had very little success in preventing the spread. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
