PedroMoutinho Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 (edited) I just knew that the SG wouldn’t do the easy thing, shut up and get the f**k out of people’s lives. NS, Devi and Jason had to be seen to ‘care more’ and that has resulted in this continued bullshit bingo of pointless measures. Yet again individuals and businesses treated like an inconvenience with no details of how nightclubs are meant to open in 6 days’ time with masks in place, what ‘limited exceptions’ there are to crowd limits or if office staff can return to work if they wish. The SG did not have the guts to accept that we now have highly effective fucking vaccines and can get back to normal.

Dawson Park Boy Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 35 minutes ago, WATTOO said: My biggest issue with all this is that there doesn't appear to be any sort of end game ?? What are we trying to achieve ? (zero covid being impossible) How do we expect to achieve whatever it is ? When do we expect to achieve it ? The whole thing has now reached farcical levels and i do believe that the majority have now "had it" as it were (I certainly have). The vaccines were supposed to be "the holy grail" but they haven't really had any effect on the restrictions, so yet another lie. Getting the serious illness and deaths under control was supposed to be the main target and reason for the restrictions, so we've achieved that, so now what ?? Is this forever ? What is suddenly going to change which will allow us to go back to clubbing, concerts, football, foreign holidays ???? These are the questions which need answered NOW and is a prime example of how useless our so called journalists and so called opposition politicians are in this pathetic country as none of them seem to be interested in putting this to the Governments of either Scotland or the wider UK !!! The "hope" has virtually been drained away and when hope goes, there's nothing. You are correct but no one, politician or media person ever asks these questions? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thereisalight.. Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Within the English football leagues starting shortly has there been any word on their stadium criteria? Are they having to go begging to the councils for above 5k crowds? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well yes. As such they are welcome to vote for other Indy supporting parties and turn their back on the SNP. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unrestricted, except for any seats kept free to ensure distance between fans and players (but that’s a self-imposed rule rather than Government diktat). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparky88 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 The rhetoric in the media about the fall in cases is depressing . It suggests that it would be a bad thing if cases were to increase again,and then politicians would feel the need to introduce pointless restrictions again, even as government measures to to stop COVID19, rather than COVID19 itself, are becoming the biggest issue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Distant Doonhamer Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Well today's update was as underwhelming as it was utterly predictable. Not a single thing in it was a surprise. The pace of progress is very frustrating but I'm amazed that anyone would be heads gone about it. Not because there's no reason to be pissed off but because it was never going to be any different. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The vaccines have been a fucking miracle I think you misunderstood my point, I wasn't saying the vaccines weren't working, on the contrary, I was meaning that from the perspective of "returning to normal" that the vaccines were supposed to give us a return to pretty much normality rather than these continued restrictions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lichtie78 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Was planning on a day out to Ayr for the football this weekend - forgot Scotrail still have an alcohol ban in place. Can only assume these measures will have saved countless lives. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
