Fixing your errors doesn't bring people back unfortunately and when it comes to something like this, no amount of course correcting can turn bad performance into a good performance.

People have been doing what they want for the past month at least. The reason Scotland has a lot less contagion and deaths has a lot to do with being less populated and a degree of luck. Nothing to do with what Sturgeon is doing. She is only doing the same as England but 2 weeks later. Going by her tone today, I think she is beginning to believe her own hype Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comparing ‘Scotland’ with other similar sized countries isn’t a flawed comparison tbh, it can really only be compared with the rest of the UK. Austria, Denmark, Hungary, Slovakia etc all have ‘total’ control over their borders and national decisions - Scotland doesn’t. While most of Europe took the decision to shut down completely their borders Scotland doing so with e.g England was never(and still isn’t) a realistic option.

The UK has complete control over its borders, yet they kept them open. In the same way that looks to have been a bad move for England, it was a bad move for Scotland and Wales too. The UK made a bad decision, Scotland remains part of the UK. The mistakes the UK have made have resulted in poor outcomes for its constituent nations resulting in those nations having done badly in comparison to the rest of the world. Some of the decisions the constituent nations took that they do have independent control over have also been poor, care home settings being the main one. That Scotland has done less badly from England doesn't mean they have done well. I'm not finger pointing who's fault it is or x,y,z as I don't really care, I'm simply basing it on the outcomes experienced in those countries to determine whether they've done well or not.

Cade Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Allegations of serious shenanigans in Leicester have come to light. Hundreds of small factories have allegedly been operating as normal, forcing staff to come in even if they were sick and no kind of ppe or distancing measure put in place. Not producing pay slips so the bosses could claim more Furlough money from the government, paying staff well under the min wage, as little as £3 an hour. Threatening staff with being reported to immigration if they complain, the usual shitehouse behaviour. This has come to light after Public Health England sent a team to the city last week to find out why the infection rate was so high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

main Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 I would imagine possibly the biggest factor as to why the British countries have been worst affected as opposed to other European countries is a culture of unhealthy living that millions of people fall into. High rates of obesity and the conditions that follow, diabetes and chest and heart conditions. Also, the lousy weather up until May/June and the detriments that brings. This all in addition to our higher level of drinking and smoking. There's a reason the Germans call us the apes from the island. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
