Dagger Is Back Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 1 minute ago, Jambo 4 Ever said: Ummm people are retraining in different things all the time. It’s happened before and it will happen again I'm very aware of that. I've done it myself and as you say, it will be an increasing feature and aspect of our working lives, especially with retirement age being extended as has happened today. I don't like his stance and response though. There are a number of sectors which truly enrich peoples lives and things like the arts, music and sport are major players in the mental well being of a population. Maybe my response is simply because I don't see us doing enough to support these important sectors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tott Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 Pubs have rallied round. It maybe not that great to go to the pub just now,no jukebox ,no sound on the Tv. But 90% of them are sticking to strict guidelines. doing the best they can under extreme circumstances. So really pisses me off ,when they interview thick people on the streets of the weeg/Edinburgh (with arms full of bags from various high street stores) That say the pubs should shut. etc its terrible that there open Are Tesco,Asda,Next etc doing track and trace..are they feck Apart from the Aberdeen outbreak..which is greedy niteclubs. Pubs are pretty safe tbh. just as safe or probably more so than yer local tesco's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The leak about this circuit breaker shite was a while ago so she’s planned this for a long time. I honestly think she’s not going to shut as much as she’d like due to the public outcry Why all the waffle from her this week instead of just making the announcement? She knows everyone is talking about this announcement now and she’s been building up to this all week and will be loving it come this afternoon standing up there in front of cameras It’s just another nail in the coffin of the hospitality industry Edited October 7, 2020 by theshed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CavySlaveJambo Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 If the overdispersion theory is true none of the measures put in place to control the spread are going to work. And then measures to control that need to be put in place. I am not sure why it is household spread here but elsewhere it has been via superspreading events (overdispersion) and plenty of the science journals are reporting to that effect.

DETTY29 Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Ruth Davidson's reaction today will be most pertinent. The opposition leaders will be given first sight of her speech before made public at Holyrood. It will then be sent by Davidson's people to Central Office to gauge in what they are thinking for England. This isn't or definitely shouldn't be a time for political capital one minute, followed by hypocrisy the next, hoping others have forgotten what was said in the distant past.

Outside of the household rules, the nuances between SG and WM are marginal, but on whole same approach is being taken across industry, albeit at a slower pace relaxing restrictions in Scotland.
