It's not scaremongering to highlight that, preparedness at the moment is all we have against covid, unlike flu and pneumonia.

Some are complacent Kizzy but not all of us,I know we need to be careful and do what we are asked,but I for one will listen to well reasoned debate about it calmly and thoughtfully,but imo,Piers has been hysterical at times and just shouts and rants,so i dont think that helps with debate at all, he shouts over everyone and does not let them explain anything,that is my problem with him,nothing to do with him slating the Tories,sometimes they make mistakes,but, can he not just calm down and talk and at least let others have their say.We do at some point have to try and get back to normality and live with this thing, as it will be a forever thing like the flu.Shouting the odds about it wont make it go away.

It was a tweet, he was making a valid statement online not challenging anyone in person . We do need to be vigilant to what is happening in the rest of Europe on relation to rises in Covid cases, that's a given.

Flu isn't a forever thing as such, there are differing strains of influenza during flu season and each has a vaccine, covid does not.

Yes that was a tweet but overall from what I have seen he just shouts everyone down, most of us know we have to be cautious, but even his own sons did not stick to the rules rigorously that to me makes him a hypocrite. fingers crossed there will be a vaccine at some point.

No disagreement from me in the slightest from me.
I'm just surprised a little that across the Country to some, such things still appear to need to be pointed out.

His son does something so that makes Piers a hypocrite?

Unbelievable isn't it.

So if I was advised to do something to keep safe which my Mother thought right.
Then I went against it.
That would make my Mother a hypocrite.

No, it makes ME wrong,

Sometimes you just couldn't make it up, honestly.

It's easier for me as I don't care for either Piers or Carol really
When he ripped into Labour or other MPs, such as SNP, aggressively he was a hero.
Not so now.

Yet all he's done is forcefully point out inconsistencies,incompetence and blatant deceit.

We're not discussing his interview techniques just this tweet. If he were not sticking to the rules then yes he would be a hypocrite, however he can't control what his family do or don't do. Like all parents once kids grow up all you can do is offer advice.
A vaccine can't come soon enough, every country is in a race to develop it so fingers crossed! That will be a fantastic day.

Ugh, I hate to say it but he's right about it not being over, until an effective vaccine is widely available, we're gonna have to keep Covid in mind and act accordingly. People who act like it's over will only cause more waves of it that will shut the country down more than it already is.

That said, he's a prissy bitch that throws out **** that he can't take in return and she's a moron who is crying project fear over a global pandemic.

Tom4784 23-08-2020 01:46 PM

Also someone else's actions doesn't make what he is saying hypocritical, I hate the bastard but that logic is plain dumb.

The only way he'd be hypocritical if he was saying what he was saying and then breaking lockdown protocols and such.

I get that about his son Kizzy,the thing is he didnt rant about that as he did for everyone else, for me that is the difference pull them all up even your family if they do wrong. and yes a vaccine will be great it will come.

Tom4784 23-08-2020 02:02 PM

How do we know that he didn't pull up his kids on it?
