Elixir Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 So: Denmark getting banged on the red list, then? Or is it just African countries? Nothing at all racist or discriminatory about all this. Just for the good of 'public health' - apparently. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 4 hours ago, Les Cabbage said: Really hacked off with the pantwetting travel restrictions that came to force yesterday. For a trip to Cyprus in January instead of the previous £17 it would have cost for a Lateral Flow on arrival I now need to book another 2 tests, one on arrival in Cyprus and one before flying home coming to a minimum of £75. Fed up of this shite. To 'protect' against a beyond shan variant that they reckon will be the dominant strain in the entire country by then. Another exercise in joined-up thinking. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 4 hours ago, Lyle Lanley said: Nicola Sturgeon confirms that there are no immediate changes to current restrictions but no preventions will be lifted at this time amid the rapidly developing Omicron situation. Additional protections will be placed under daily review she confirms. Why only daily? She could waltz about the place with a spiky virus shaped 'football' containing lockdown codes. She'd still be winning the 'cares more' battle while doing f**k all difference to the progress of an endemic, glorified cold. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So how often did you wear a face covering and refused to enter an indoor space without being vaccinated during every bog-standard winter flu season before 2020? I'll be looking for a precise list of years in which you respected the needs of the same, tiny handful of clinically vulnerable people that you're so concerned about now. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No_Problemo Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 29 minutes ago, Dawson Park Boy said: It was referred to on Politics Live today. There actually was a visit paid to Arthur’s house but, many visits are done by Zoom. No one contradicted the assertion. In fact the Labour MP was a former social worker. I work with social work, and have never done a visit by zoom in the entirety of the pandemic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No_Problemo Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 1 minute ago, Left Back said: Could the guidance be different between England and Scotland? It easily could be, but it would be pretty wild. The first month or two when no one had any idea what this was, there was essential visits only so people may have caught up with less at risk children online but things were back to normal visits pretty quickly! Obviously, any at risk child only being seen over zoom would be disgraceful. Social workers should have been working as key workers alongside everyone else. It isn’t exactly a job you can do at home. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sturgeon will be gagging for Downing Street to bring things back in. Rubbing her hands thinking of the possibilities to screw with our lives just in case hospitals get a wee bit busier. Meanwhile, yet another treatment on the cards for this shanner of a virus. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

101 Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 To lie about not having a party rather than just apologies and pay the £10k fine, instead throwing the entire cabinet under a bus seems incredibly clumsy to say the least. How could they hope the joking about the party wouldn't become known. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
