This was a Live debate
on Politics Live, BBC2HD the last 7mins.
Given covid is going nowhere, this would be the case this month or if they delayed easing restrictions to six months time?

if there is no central funding for tests in england, it wont be given to scotland. If she wants free testing she will have to take the money from something else. She knows this

As Scotland isn't ending restrictions, Scotland/England will serve as a litmus test for the world on Covid restrictions.

If the numbers start to rise (the important one; deaths) without a corresponding rise in Scotland, or if after a few months there's no difference in the numbers (scaled for population size), then we'll have our answer I guess.

Cineworld is doing tickets for 3 pounds on Saturday.
Got a ticket for Uncharted. Will be wearing my mask, as it looks like it will be crowded.

Vanessa that sounds like a nightmare if it's crowded though , i imagine it will be.
But it's nice to get to the cinema once in a while, i saw James bond movie last Autumn despite it being fairly busy.

Yuck, cinema on a Saturday. Weekday early afternoon is the best time for a cinema trip, it's basically empty .

We went to the kid's morning special thing on Sunday, all 4 of us for £10, Encanto. Wasn't too busy. Kids have seen it already on Disney+ of course but I have to say, it was definitely much better in the cinema.

where his opinions fall down is that he says things and then doesn't do it himself. For example, weeks ago he said the best thing he could do was go out and get omicron while his immunity is high .. and now in this video weeks later he is saying the same thing. Obviously he is not exposing himself to the virus himself.

After that, you have to take everything he says with a large pinch of salt

what do you mean - what you have said above is that he said something a few weeks ago and he said it again as his opinion has not changed?

I think they're banking on it not happening to be honest, watch "infection rates" plummet when everyone stops testing.

And everytime I watch the sky sports centre soccer scores programme on a saturday and midweek, there is always a game held up due to an emergency in the crowd.


Tonight's game was at sunderland, with ab48 minute delay to the start of the game.
