Really good news that proper UK scientists and experts look to now be confirming what those amateurs in SA said...

 

Hopefully will mean no additional restrictions to come now from the UK government, and fair play to them if so for not over egging the pudding in panic. 

 

 

On radio 4 today program this morning the 'expert scientists' were still saying that we need a few more weeks of data and that we should be hiding under our beds in the meantime to protect the NHS.

 

In my naivety I thought we paid a colossal amount in tax so that the NHS could serve us and not the other way around.

I can’t see anything online about Scottish nightclubs ? 


They are getting closed via the back door. Nightclubs can’t really operated under the new restrictions so they are having to close the doors or face a loss making 3 weeks.

Everyone has a right to be disappointed over the health performance and the handling of the pandemic. Not sure why thats unique to unionists or why they would be angry about it🤷🏻‍♂️ I would have thought a unionist primary concern would be the union., whilst they have whilst nationalist is independence which they don’t have.  Though I’ll blow to your superior psychic ability to know who angry by, you telling them they are😂

 

Best to agree to disagree I suspect. The constant yes/no pish on this thread is tedious as for the vast majority of non fanatics. My comments were genuinely in attempt to raise the quality of debate here. 👍

 

Anyway quick question downloading games for the boys Christmas. Is it worth getting the ultimate addition of latest COD or am I being suckered by my boy. Also any quest two recomendations appreciated👍


Ultimate edition. 👍 But yeah you are being suckered. 😂

Usual blind froth.

 

These kinds of measures are always to introduce a level of suppression in order to contribute to the overall situation.  Nobody ever says or thinks that introducing measures is some kind of complete solution.  

 

It's 3 weeks ffs.  Nightclubs are easily profiled and limited in number.  The financial support is there.  They even have the option of converting to a table service bar if they choose to do so.

 

 

 

 

Come on Vic, you are smarter than that.

A lot of the conditions differ from previous times.  Very confident that these measures are temporary as stated.

Yeah sure.  Come back at the end of the time of these measures and we'll revisit.  ;)

 

 

 

Even if it is 3 weeks which I highly doubt, it will just be temporary till the next one.

 

Remember the '2 weeks circuit' breaker that lasted 5 months?

When people start getting bored/wiser to the Omicron bollocks they will just start giving another variant column inches rinse and repeat ad nauseum.

Yes well it’s nearly 4 weeks since the Tusnami  prediction which ofcourse you supported whole heartedly .  However I think there will be a teal

backlash if Elsie keeps the restrictions going after the 3 weeks so she may relent . Still appalling and unnecessary.

Absurd yes, funny no.

 

If someone had come from the future and told me about this madness a few years ago I would never in a billion years have believed it.  Everyday we get trolled that little bit more.  Governments now know just how far they can go with people nodding their heads hook line and sinker.  It is game over.

 

I am utterly embarrassed for anyone who still believes in all this.  Moronic Orbits!

It's merely a paper exercise. You don't have to wear them on beaches, out exercising, with you're own family, with strangers more than 1.5m away from you.

Same as before

The vast majority havE bent over backwards for the small minority . That’s it now . They have been triple vaccinated and can shield if they wish . Let the vast majority get on with life . I’m immune suppressed and “ at risk “ but want us all to just get on with things . Most people do apart from the fervent Elsie zealots .

What is clear as the vaccination rollout was pointless.  I had both mine but not to save the world, I wanted to go on holiday.  We are no further forward - we really aren't. 

 

Why, when 95% are double dosed and people are getting boosters at staggering rates are we still so helpless?

 

If people wish to wfh, live in fear, stay indoors that is up to them but why are these ***** less liberating with those that wish to live freely? What the **** has it got to do with them?

 

I have nothing but hatred now for the followers.

And the patronising post of the week award goes to you.  Thanks for helping us understand why things might be shut, after 18 months we had missed it.

 

The point you have missed is firstly why wasn’t this announced the other day in line with other restrictions and secondly why do it on the day that reports are to confirm Omicron isn’t as severe as first thought.  
 

I am sure all those young people looking forward to their Hogmanay night out will be reassured by your tabled cafe idea.  
 

Also, where do you think all those young people will go now.  Stay home or to each other’s houses with no rules, controls or vaccine passports.  It makes absolutely no sense.

 

More politics and nothing more.

A "tsunami of infections" is what was predicted. It's right here already.

It's just what I said.  Another contributing measure to flatten the peak on hospitalisations.  One measure among others to slow down the wave.  Nothing is a solution in isolation.  

 

**** all to do with politics.

The tsunami stuff is quite interesting, after a discussion last night I went off and read about them.

 

Until now you could feasibly argue that the graph of Omicron does look like that of a Tsunami. Fast and little in build up to a big crescendo. The question now is of course how long that wave lasts before disappearing of its own volition, and then how long until the next peak.

**** all to do with politics. It is just a coincidence that the Sturgeon die hards support her every action throughout and those 'for' all this madness seem to be mainly on the left.

 

Absolutely EVERYTHING is political nowadays.

Only because you are making it political.  It's the default position of the hysterical seethers.  The myopic seethe of first and last resort for people already pre-disposed to making everything political.  Tedious stuff.
