Still reckon we'll get 9pm so she's seen as being a bit stricter. This added to the furlough stuff will see thousands out of a job and a fair percentage of pubs/restaurants and hotels closing permanently. Complete fucking madness. Not a single life will be saved. Closing at 10 won't do much if you can still go out at midday. Link to comment

Imagine he will cause a few deaths as a result of spreading it around like he has. And closing pubs early would've stopped him doing that would it? Link to comment

Exactly my issue with this. You punish the rule abiders even more to offset the folk who don't follow the rules anyway. If someone breaks rules now, stricter rules aren't going to stop them.

Making my local close at 10pm would've stopped a guy in Bolton spreading it? Not convinced. Link to comment

Rules or no rules, if you are the sort of person who does not give a fuck about anyone other than yourself (and let's be honest we see that type of selfish behaviour day in day out throughout society, COVID-19 related or not) then it does not matter what the rules are.

Exactly my point,and Fosters above. The people who are ignoring them will ignore the new ones and the ones following the rules will be punished more. Link to comment

That's the myth that's being peddled. You're protecting others by adhering to our baseless rules and restrictions. Helps to maintain a divide between adherers and those capable of thinking for themselves. There was an article on the guardian yesterday about the vaccine and countries all signing a deal. 'For the benefit of all' said the statement. Has the establishment suddenly developed extreme empathy in the last few months? Benefit of all. Fuck clean off, it's for profit and you damn well know it. Theyve never looked out for your interests, why suddenly believe that they are now. 1 3 Link to comment

Imagine he will cause a few deaths as a result of spreading it around like he has. I think there would be far more chance of catching HIV, or any other STD, from the boy in Bolton you are referring to rather than contracting Coronavirus. Does anyone know anyone that's tested positive for this "incurable" disease and, if so, what symptoms they have and how they genuinely caught it? Sturgeon, Johnson, Hancock, Freeman Harries, Vallance and Whitty have been so quick to deliver perennial negative, unhelpful, and, frankly, contradictory rhetoric daily since 23/03/20 but have conveniently omitted any bona fide proof of how it is actually transmitted, how it is spread and how symptoms develop via biological evidence. Surely in this day and age, they could produce a video of a town/city centre showing how the virus is spread via the use of genuine infrared technology? Link to comment
For Fecks Sake Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Don't get me wrong I am not exactly happy with that's going on at the moment but some people need to give themselves a shake at their selfish attitudes. And aye the establishment don't give a fuck about anything else other than Money and a vaccine will be a licence to print just that. 1 Link to comment

Poodler Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 No but I'm saying is it really selfish to just not do as you're told by a government who continually lies and abuses you? It can't be proven that the 'spread' is not caused by people with poor mask and hand hygiene efficacy even if they're trying their best. So you can't just blame people who want to get on with their lives. And why should I care about some random in Inverbervie or Slough? You don't have to care about anyone, it's ok to be like that. It sounds unpleasant but it's ok. Link to comment

No, it's not. However your post seems to imply that anyone who's adhering to any of the guidelines is doing so solely because they're told to. When that is not the case either. 4 minutes ago, Poodler said: It can't be proven that the 'spread' is not caused by people with poor mask and hand hygiene efficacy even if they're trying their best There's a plenty things in life that can't be proven.

DelMonte Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 You can care about your fellow citizens in another way though. A lot of people think there is more danger from the consequences of lockdown rather than the virus itself. Its a perfectly reasonable argument. Link to comment

It's to stop the germs from SPREADING. It's simple physics. The mask is simply a way to stop the virus from spraying out when people are talking / breathing. Nobody has ever said that it's 100% effective, but it's about reducing the risk. 2 Link to comment
