Cutting sick pay knowing that sounds like a lovely thing to do. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If mandatory vaccinations are a public health neccessity then why are you throwing about theoretical examptions where you think it might be politically unpopular to force the issue? Its either needed or it's not. You and everyone else trumpeting the need for this policy are too cowardly to stand behind it, because there isn't actually any basis for its implementation. It's discriminatory, and there is no basis in medical need, or pandemic mitigation to enforce it. That means it shouldn't be enforced, rather than more cherry picking bullshit masquerading as caring about minorities. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise you'd be white knighting for ten different folk each day. 2) The presence of previous mental health issues does not count as a free pass to make objectively terrible posts and not to get called on it, in any poster. 3) The actual and very straightforward solution to the issue raised has already been clearly set out. If you don't like reading a topic and don't want to contribute, then don't fucking click on it. In the exact same way that I've never had the slightest desire to read 90% of the threads on this or any other forum. I don't wade into them and demand that they talk about something else instead. b) And if that doesn't work, then there's always the big 'sign out' function to get back to the 'real life' that you're convinced only exists for certain posters. That you and many others believe that there is a 'gang' operating against you on a Scottish football forum suggests that you should follow that advice yourself immediately. You don't get to tell anyone what is or not their business, nor do you get to pass off your opinion as fact. In my opinion (see how it works?) the "actual and straightforward solution" is quite simply to stop being a cúnt and resorting to cheap jibes in order to gain your wee coterie of sycophants' approval. Or, to put it even more simply, occasionally make the choice of not being a cúnt - because it is a choice. You'll no doubt have a wee folder next to the one full of amusing pictures where you keep the posts where I say there is a gang operating against me. Oh, no, wait.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To the point you called me right wing. I'm curious to know your thoughts on a hardcore SNP fan celebrating a large company choosing which employees will get sick pay based on their normal earnings and those getting papped with woefully inadequate SSP based on their medical status. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
