Just typical Labour! 😉

I am now adrift from any political party. Started out as Labour then drifted to SNP and now free to any decent party. Trouble is there are none. :

I was Labour too, now SNP. Vote up for grabs if we achieve indy.

It's a shame this thread will never be viewed by anybody except about 20 self absorbed wafflers that are totally obsessed with outdoing each other for absolutely no particular reason.

 

The undercurrent of mass murder & violence while attempting to stick to the rules makes it fantastic reading.

 

Embarrassingly hilarious.

Life's all about opinions and forums are just that. Not to be taken too seriously. The real world is different!

So you are a self confessed self absorbed waffler. Your self awareness and honesty are admirable.

My memory isn't fantastic, how vocal was Ian McMenemy when the leagues were being called in March 2020?

It might surprise everyone to see that Stenhousemuir are at the arse end of League 2

So not only are you one of the 20 self absorbed  who you say are all who view the thread you view it so assiduously  that you respond barely half an hour after my post. 

Case dismissed!

Quite.  But football fans are only now being let down , "badly". 

And that article is a travesty of journalism & false equivalence.

Disgraceful watching a full Kempton park on the TV and then an empty Tynecastle park because health is devolved to a wee backwater administration.

Hacked off doesn't cover it

superb article.  It’s a farce in my opinion that football has once again been targeted.  It’s hard to see any light under the SNP regime, we will likely be hung out to dry for months. Get jagged they said, get boosters. Of course looking back they think the virus comes out after 8pm, and the biggest laugh was their claim that it comes out if you ordered an alcoholic drink with a meal so they said soft drinks only. The list goes on and on. It really is time to just live with this now before irreparable damage is done to peoples mental health and finances.

Football will always be her target.

Your lucky my Canucks hockey is postponed, supposed to have been a game tomorrow but its gone now also. I fit come back it will be to 50%m crowds, and its strange even watching on TV the lowered crowd noise has an  affect. Last year the games were restricted to Canadian teams playing each other no American teams, no crowd, no pleasure. Without a doubt one or many ways and another this has been the worst two years in my whole life,not just an expression thats a living fact.

It does get to you.

It really difficult to feel upbeat about anything that is really special to you and your family and friends.

We were talking about this yesterday at Christmas dinner. Sometimes, it’s easy to overemphasise the now and forget the bigger picture. 
 

Omicron, has, arguably, been the biggest scunner of 21 but you know what, we are still so for ahead of way we were. 
 

I heard some talk about COVID in 6 month chunks and suggesting there will be peaks and trough in those 6month, but each 6month would be overall better than the previous. 
 

It’s a view I prescribe to, things are getting better despite setbacks. If nothing else, and I’m sure you will, you can get pissed in you local. 👍

 

Progress can be a slow process but at least we are progressing. 
 

We will get there😃. (I maybe a little bit tipsy and I’m higher than a giraffe hat) 

 

 

Fair comment.

Targeting football is a disgrace. Up there with her wisdom to ban travel to Manchester last year. I sense more people are waking up to this nonsence now, finally.

Well this is rather interesting.  It may well eventually form part of the future at some point.  A transition towards scientists beginning to trust the entirety of the immune system instead of counting antibodies?

 

Maybe but there is no money to be made in trusting the body so I doubt it!

The Europeans might have shot themselves in the foot by playing politics and tarnishing the AZ vaccine at the start of the year.

things are often only new / a transition depending on what scientists people have been listening to

New doom and gloom scientist wheeled out on Sky just now……another one I’ve never seen before, pant wetting about no data being collected over the last two days because of Christmas and, we should prepare for more stringent rules in the days ahead……..no doubt we won’t see her again as Sky will be looking for their next new expert for tomorrow………just GTF.

 

It would have been interesting (ok maybe not 😉), if someone kept  a tab on the amount of daily doom and gloomers that are wheeled out….honestly, it’s something I’m not able to ignore now.  Next time you watch the news try and clock the face/name of each gloomer, doctor/professor X with their earphones in broadcasting live from their garden shed….it’s likely someone you haven’t seen before and won’t see again………again GTF.

It's looking like Boris won't be bringing in any more restrictions before New Year, but maybe just some guidance.

It was nothing to do with politics and it had nothing to do with "tarnishing" anything either. 

The EMEA always maintained it was safe for use. The majority simply paused while awaiting clarification on the question of blood clots.

Sky has a few regulars they roll out, one being Dr. Deepti Gurdasani, now she has been in favour of ever more restrictions constantly, even when things are good it wouldn't surprise me if she still wanted everything locked down, anyway she's another whose been wrong with every single prediction.  100+k cases after 19th July, hospitals overwhelmed within 2 weeks etc, 1000 deaths a day, then when that didn't happen it was millions and millions of long covid cases if restrictions weren't brought back, then next was we have to lockdown because of the flu, everytime she's on Sky it's the same MO everytime from her, end of the world if we (England) doesn't bring back restrictions, type of doom and gloom from her.

 

I'll bet she's a real hoot at parties, probably sits next to an open window with a hazmat suit on, then again she probably hides behind her couch instead.

If England don't bring in any restrictions and get through this omicron wave unscathed, then the devolved governments should be made to pay back the extra funding to the Treasury from other budgets.

That way they won't be so quick to piss taxpayers money up the wall

Again only because he'd need to recall parliament and he'd be out of a job fairly shortly afterwards. 

It's not because he's a great guy or has any insight different to anyone else.

If England do bring in new restrictions will you apologise for all the shite you've posted?

I'm not saying that England won't bring in restrictions. I'm talking hypothetically. 

 

Anyway, watch for Westminster passing a new law through parliament, taking back control of all health matters in the event of further pandemics and health emergencies
