Remembering Kerry

This should have been announced earlier, however the procrastination has been the trademark of this PM and his government all through.
Relaxing 5 days at Christmas was always going to be a dangerous error. The measures are right but as ever from this inept PM, likely again too late. The simple fact is he and the Ministers HE'S chosen are NOT up to the task and have by dangerous action at times, plus their inaction too shown that all through. Now, perhaps no one else would have done any better. I doubt that myself, we needed clarity, truth and necessary at each needed time action. All we got and get is muddle, deceit and even lies and finally dangerous procrastination. Scandalous and a shambles. Last edited by joeysteele; 19-12-2020 at 05:38 PM. |

Why were the rules OK for the north but not SE? The levels there were rising way before the new strain was discovered. As I said months ago there is NOTHING that will stop this virus from engulfing the country bar a vaccine. Let's hope it's effective for this new strain.

They only got the data on the new variant on Friday so it was a very rapid reaction to that. I always said that the 5 day mixing over Christmas was a bad idea, but it was agreed by all the 4 nations at the time, so they take collective responsibility for the stupidity

Announcing this five days before Christmas is an absolute farce. Shambolic doesn’t even cut it anymore.

Well the health experts always expressed concern at the 5 day relaxation at Christmas.
Johnson has NOT always followed the health and science. Only when it suited him until forced by the dangerous delays to then eventually act. He's even disregarded health and science advice at times too. Last edited by joeysteele; 19-12-2020 at 07:16 PM. |

So most of us still get a Christmas of sorts.
Albeit shorter and less people allowed. Roll on Easter, hopefully we can all go crackers. |

You know what.. I'm beginning to thing this was all very much planned. I don't think it's been the **** show it first appears.
Yes people have died but in a very controlled way to avoid overloading NHS capacity. I'd say In MY OPINION that this was achieved by covertly adopting the herd immunity strategy. By this I mean that there has been a staggering of exposure by differing groups to maximise spread in different age groups and now geographical areas. First everything was locked down then slowly exposure was turned on an off in order, shops closed then restaurants opened, then gyms opened, then schools opened, people could meet indoors then shops closed again, restaurants closed again but gyms, shops and schools stayed open ... now it's no meeting again. It's like they are deliberately edging towards a tipping point then pulling back the reins.

Idiots, imagine these people arriving on your doorstep, they know they are potentially carrying a virus but heading off anyway

I was speaking about places all over the world not only Europe but like Dezzy said this could have been avoided if common sense was used yes rule breakers but that wasn’t the only issue. You can’t excuse entering lockdown too late, lockdown not being strict enough and keeping the schools open when that was one of the main reasons why the cases went up. How hard ls it to blame the leaders as well as rule breakers? No one can say the UK are doing great and the gov are doing great.
