I did seven hours in a car on my own for a 15 minute funeral service. Meh.

I understand and agree with the govt to get people out and about again. Surely the best way of doing this was to say you can see your friends and family? Two weeks of seeing friends and some family and people would start accepting the back to work tomorrow stuff easily without the same concerns. So...

Gospel

Seriously, where? And even if we did, why wouldn't be allowed to comment when you feel quite free to pile in on the french and other governments yourself? Stop being so precious. We're not doing any better than you if that makes you more comfortable. You called me obsessed for pointing out these co...

Why are Brits so confused about Boris? I still don’t see anything unclear on what he had said. Serious question The mostly remoaner press absolutely despise Boris's Brexit Government and the opposition have broken ranks since we've passed the first peak.

When are you ever critical of anything French?

Gospel

Well fück me who'd have thought Clement would rate Macron better than Boris :lol: Yeah that surprised me too. To be fair you're the one who seems obsessed by Macron. I am amused by the contradictions given you garlic munchers spend so much time piling into the UK Government whilst your own house is...

So Macron's slogan is "Save Lives, Remain Prudent" and it's been greeted without the mass media bed wetting "Stay Alert" has caused over here. Strange times we live in.

SaintK wrote:Must have seen a release of what Starmer is going to say

Given we have an adversarial system I rather suspect Starmer will stick the boot in regardless. He's sitting pretty in the cheap seats working on his public image.

Gospel

But people doing what's right for them is a bollocks statement. If that were true, you wouldn't need government guidelines. Even ones as simple to understand as these (according to you) which both you and government ministers have got incorrect this morning. I think he meant doing what they're able...

Lorthern Nights wrote:The government schemes other than furlough is basically allowing you to borrow money with government backing so yes it’s support but it’s support you have to pay back.

So are you agreeing or disagreeing?

Gospel

I thought Boris made perfect sense last night. Yeah you have to fill in the blanks but it's common sense. You've got people complaining this morning that they can't work from home and how does the government expect them to go to work if the company they work for is still closed :( I think the media...

Gospel

Heard from a givernment minister last week that they had screwed up the first message Stay Home, Save NHS, Save Lives as it was actually too effective and far more businesses shut up shop than they expected which put a bigger strain on the economy than they had forecast. It also has the problem tha...

Starting with reception , year one and year six ...... were stuck with them till September. Aye. My wife was wondering at what point year 2 would be going back and told her not to hold her breath. It's not a critical year. You’d still be fined if you took them on holiday of course. Just tell the fu...

Sandstorm wrote:Still no mention of everyone wearing masks.

Whilst the science is mixed I rather suspect that's more to do with the rather huge task of providing enough masks for the entire population.

Gospel

Part of the plan seems to be the government catching up with what we're already seeing happening on the streets. People have been congregating in greater numbers in public spaces and more and more people have gone back to work in construction and manufacturing. Even garden centres were started sell...

My grandfather was a sapper in WWII and was part of a unit that was one of the first into Belsen concentration camp. The shit that generation went through is just beyond my capacity to empathise with. We are so fortunate they had the fortitude to get it done.

I'm curious as to why, in your opinion, "Lefties" would try to defend Managers and those in senior positions?

The warning was because of the source.

It is about preserving the best interests of the EU. There's a fair amount of inequality in those interests.

I point you to countries such as Austria, Germany and others who did a much better job than the UK without apps. An app is part of it. Massive testing capacity is another - we could've been prepared but the government decided it wasn't a priority. They did know we weren't prepared, the test on pand...
