coconut doug Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 1 hour ago, Enzo Chiefo said: Again, you jump in all guns blazing in defence of your beloved Scot Gov. If you want Scotland to be responsible for herself why do you obsess about England this, England that?? We are in Scotland and I am talking about Scottish decisions, whoever is making them. The point I was responding to was about the power of common sense, whether in Scotland or England. The examples I cite are all verifiable FACTS. The reason I deployed, "apparently", is because I was not on the ward to witness it. It was reported in the press at the time and there were a couple of Covid deaths subsequently. "Parts" of Scotland have death rates twice as high as other "parts" of England too. Not sure what your point is although, as with everything else, Nats are using Covid as a weapon to talk down England and praise Scotland. They all seem to be quiet on the shambolic EU vaccine programme though...you know, the one that blundering idiots like Mike Russell were claiming would be "idiotic" not to join. The SNP should be damned grateful it was Boris not Barnier that organised their vaccines for them. All guns not blazing, just a gentle riposte to your ravings. I am not beloved of Scotgov or any gov but i am reminded every daythat what we have in Scotland is better than that on offer in England. I often compare things between Scotland and England especially to do with Covid as Scotland comes out of it much,much better but that is not to say that mistakes have not been made. I want us to be independent because i believe it will be better for us. Pointing out their inadequacies is a good way to show that. The examples you stated are not verifiable facts especially since they appeared in the papers. You do not know how Covid was transmitted in the hospital (nobody does) and you do not know what contribution Covid made to those who died on the cancer ward. Your notion that this was criminal negligence is utterly stupid for the reasons above and because you are unable to tell us who you think is responsible. You have a pathological hatred (opposite of beloved) of the Scot Gov and blame them for eveything even when there is no government involvement like the WGH alleged incident or when it has been proved the government has no culpability as in the case of discharges to care homes. It may be that in the future some blame is attributed to government but as it stands there is no proven link between hospital discharge and Covid outbreaks in care homes. Many people are critical of England's Covid performance including you so why would you want to single out "nats" for doing the same? It's not nats that are talking down England's covid performance it's the statistics and the PM as shown by his pile em high comments. What's so shambolic about the EU's vaccine programme? They were more cautious than us and struggled to get the vaccines when they were approved. The vaccine story isn't finished yet. Common sense has no power.

Can I ask you, where do you think Covid is more likely to spread and cause illness or death: care homes and hospitals OR in hospitality venue??

The Grampian outbreak was caused by one individual, an oil rig worker who had tested positive, deciding to go on a pub crawl. The Scottish Hospitality Group reported, from their track and trace, a handful of cases from more than 1 million visits. The SG produced stats to try to prove schools were not a source of spread, in order to justify their decision making. They are not transparent about the extent of the spread in hospitals or care homes...not politically convenient. Full context and transparency would require far more detail about spread in buses, supermarkets etc but, like the decision to close hospitality, it's all political Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boris and his medical advisers got one thing correct with the vaccine purchase and 125,000 + wrong... The roll out success is due in the main to the NHS staff. As for using Covid to talk down England, bollocks. That's like me saying you and the unionist cohort were gleeful at Scotlands "slower" vaccine roll out at the start, slower as we were following agreed rules, which Westminster chucked. What else, Covid related, is reserved, other than border control? The SG have full control of all NHS matters, care homes etc. Many thousands of those deaths were of people who died WITH rather than OF Covid? You certainly can't pin those deaths on the PM. Or do you blame Sturgeon for 10k deaths?? All leaders made mistakes, who knows how many deaths were caused by each decision. How many deaths would have occurred anyway, from any respiratory virus?? How many deaths were caused by lockdown, both directly or indirectly through missed diagnoses, ops etc?? Or by poor NHS infection control measures?

When everyone was looking after the pennies due to lose of earnings, this prick is wondering where to get extra money to do up a temporary flat, because 30 grand wasn't good enough. £850 per roll of wallpaper from the designer they used. The ******* made so many folk go to the wall because they did their duty to the population with lockdown and this fat prick, who I did not criticise during the lockdown, because it was a difficult situation. But know! we know what he's been doing and saying, what else has he been doin and saying. Twice he waited too long to go to lockdown, and that may or may not have cost the UK 100 000+ lives. Anyway, you really need to be some sort of psychopath to want bodies to pile up, especially if you were close to being one of those bodies. It really is a pity he didn't offer to sort the taxes of the nurses(who saved him) bus drivers and all the other workers who were doing their bit during lockdown, the same way he bent over backwards to sort Dyson's taxes.

The Scottish Hospitality Group and PHE figures based on infections within hospitality prove that. Only 3% of transmissions occurred in those settings, according to PHE figures, and any pub outbreak was headline news, as we saw in Grampian. I think there were a handful of pubs in Edinburgh who closed for a day or so after an isolated case. That was from 1000s upon 1000s of visits. Graphs can be made to show anything you want but the ones you quote were showing "exposure to possible transmission ". I.e anytime you were anywhere.

The hypocrisy of one politician calling another a liar is hilarious. Every single one is in it for themselves. All lying greedy scum with no interest other than self interest. Pay every politician £40 grand a year with no expenses other than travel (public). See how many are still interested then. Absolutely spot on imo. One side does something, it's within the rules nothing to see here, when the other side do the same/similar, scandal, sleaze, corruption, we demand an inquiry.....resign, resign, resign. A lot of politicians say they got into politics so that they can make a difference, to serve the public and other shite like that, ok, very noble, of course it helps when you get over £80k +expenses a year. Like you say, pay them £40k a year and lets see how many are so keen to serve the public and make a difference then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
