Lol you make me laugh times, but you believe the whole media hype behind the corona virus ... the very man yous are talking about put the whole country on lockdown because of his FAILED COMPUTER MODULE.. 

 

I believe in 40,000 dead people if you call that hype ?

Point is, where’s the same noise about all the other myriad piles of shit ?......Rotherham ?.......The National debt (prior to Covid) ?.......councils pissing about on the stock market with a billion in borrowed money ? (You know, the same councillors who were road sweepers and shop keepers and minor managers down the local block factory !!) ........The black Crime wave......Muslims who hate us?......

Small f***ing potatoes is all I’m saying mate

We all have our options on this     like I have said   if it is just the once and for the kids sake     I don't think many will moan   but if it turns out to be more than once and nipping out to beauty spots   to me it's giving  a big middle finger    you can't preach what we should all do then please your self   

 

 

Off to my bed as on night shift  enjoys your Monday  bank holiday   looks like it's going to be a cracking day

Personally, I don't give a fig (I know I should), and I was bored with this 2 days ago!!!!!!

What on earth is the fuss about, it must be a slow news day, if he is guilty he should face the appropriate penalty, and in his position it would seem appropriate to resign as well, (embarrassing to say the least for Boris now), if he isn't then this is a non-story!!!!

Those with the knifes out for Cummings are saying it's one rule for him, another rule for everyone else.

Fair enough; if they want him sacked for breaking the rules, do they REALY want EVERYONE who breaks the rules to be sacked ?

If the RULES are the same for everyone; surely the PUNISHMENT should be the same for everyone ?

Or is it just party political and self interest hypocrisy ?

Cheers.

It's like this, I'm near enough certain that most people have already broken the guidelines at some point. 

I did on the first day when I took the dog out more than once. 

[chartpolski 23,809]

There's an "expert" from the SAGE Committee on tv now talking about "interpreting" the rules.

I'm not sure what the rules are ! 

It was my mothers 89th birthday yesterday, she lives 10 mile away and I didn't visit her as I thought I'd be breaking the "rules". I phoned her, she said she misses the fresh eggs I give her, and aren't I allowed to deliver food to her ?

Could I make a 20 mile round trip every morning with two fresh eggs for her breakfast, or do I run the risk of some curtain twitching neighbor reporting me to the police ?

By the way, I'm not neglecting my aged mother; other family members live very near and take good care of her .

Cheers.

It's interesting you said that as we're seeing something similar play out this side of the pond. Covid-19 is now a political opinion. One side mandates a lockdown. The other insists on nothing shorter than business as usual. Fines and bollockings vary depending on location.

I'm anti-lockdown, purely because it's mandatory. If you believe that coronavirus is serious risk to public health, and I do, I'll take the recommended steps. I'm already voluntarily complying with the rules but then I always have because I choose to live my life this way, anyway.

If you don't believe that the coronavirus is a serious risk to public health, or maybe even think it's a complete hoax like some of the complete head cases doing the rounds at the moment then no matter whether you're told to quarantine or not you won't comply with the restrictions to begin with.

I understand the risk of that stance as well because a public health crisis has now become an economic one. This is really going to hurt and we're all taking this ride whether we like it or not. I truly believe the only way out of both of these circumstances is to let the market run and innovate. We can't do that under martial law.

Lucky you if you’ve managed to avoid the story of Dominic Cummings, advisor to the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, who is being pilloried by the press for daring to drive to his parents house during Britain’s antediluvian, “lockdown” measures.

In short, Cummings drove some way across the country while the public was being told to effectively shelter in place for weeks. He says he was just visiting his parents hoping to get some childcare out of them as he and his partner were both incapacitated with symptoms of the coronavirus. The media vehemently disagrees.

50 days ago I PREDICTED w/ absence of Boris Johnson and Dominic Cummings, UK bureaucrats would try and delay Brexit again.

Indeed while they were away, that's what Mark Sedwill (chief bureaucrat in Britain) did.

The whole furore now is bcoz Cummings STOPPED it when he returned.

But in the grand scheme of things the story is small. So why are hordes of reporters camped outside Cummings’s house, non-socially distanced, demanding he resign?

Brexit, of course.

The Telegraph‘s Jeremy Warner gave us an insighton May 12th, well before the hysteria about a man driving a car to his parents house kicked in. I’ve added emphasis for your convenience:

Engulfed by the pandemic, there are rather bigger fish for everyone to fry than Britain’s future relationship with the EU. Under prior instructions from their political masters, negotiators on both sides of the fence exist in a bubble all of their own, seemingly oblivious to the storm raging outside – yesterday’s battles being fought against the backdrop of a world in transformation.

Past obsessions have been rendered virtually irrelevant by the Covid-19 threat, yet they persist unperturbed amid the confusion of Zoom calls; it is the curse of David Frost and Michel Barnier, the British and EU chief negotiators respectively, to carry on regardless.

A deal to extend the transition in light of the crisis had been all but agreed at official level. The EU was to have spared the UK’s blushes by proposing it, rather than the other way around. This would have allowed the UK government to present the concession as a favour to the EU, rather than a climbdown.

But then Dominic Cummings, the Prime Minister’s chief adviser, returned and the plan, concocted by underlings while he and Boris Johnson were laid out on their sick beds, was scuppered.

You see, while Boris Johnson was out with the coronavirus and Dominic Cummings was quarantined with symptoms, the British Civil Service attempted a power grab over the Brexit process and more.

There was an intended delay to the whole thing, facilitated by the British establishment, which would have caused the UK no end of complications in terms of fully extricating itself from the failing Union.

And then, Cummings was back. Something had to be done. And here we are.

The media unknowingly gave us a heads up on the plan, with the Guardian live blogging about the power vacuum at 10 Downing Street early on during Boris Johnson’s hospitalization.

The New Statesman – a leading left-wing publication – fawned over Sir Mark Sedwill, Britain’s chief bureaucrat, who happens to be virulently anti-Brexit.

Profiles appeared in Buzzfeed, Business Insider, and Sedwill’s influence was noted in the New York Times.

In short, the hysteria in Britain’s press is little to do with a man driving across the country to see his parents, or soliciting childcare from them.

It is, once again, about the political establishment with the media in tow attempting to scupper the largest democratic vote in Britain’s history: the vote to leave the European Union.

So as much as I'd like to let numpties get on with it the compulsory lockdown is to protect health and work forces as opposed to the gen pop. If lockdown bothers anyone then just break it and face the consequences.....

Absolutely, mate! I understand why they did it but I also knew the fall out that would come with it too. I think one of the largest failings of the publicity is that we were all blindsided by it and the information is still changing on an almost hourly basis.

It's exposed the weaknesses of the current system and a lockdown was implemented to reduce the strain on the healthcare system. Now we've had the time to catch our breath we have to work towards fundamentally changing the way we conduct social interaction on a daily basis, or else the damage done will cause more harm than the virus, long term. This isn't going away. The narrative has switched from 'protect frontline workers' to 'erradicate virus.' The first one was always going to be opportunity to catch our breath. The second will never happen. It's one more risk we have to live with and the only way we can mitigate that risk is through applying the advise we were given at the beginning. IMHO of course!
