And there’s me thinking it’s all caused by ‘illegal raves”.......Same where I live in the latest available data, most infections were in 10-14 year olds, second most in 40-44 year olds.
The EU Countries are doing what many of wanted the U.K. Government to do at the start of the pandemic. I can’t remember anyone saying that was for political reasons when it would have been in our interest to close our borders. We’ve got a terrible strain of the virus that the rest of the World doesn’t want.The part you are missing out, and that thwarts your very simple (and effective plan) is that in under 10 days we will no longer be in the EU, or governed by their rules. This has all come at a very bad time and I think some of the European countries imposing bans, are doing so not just for health reasons, but also lots politician ones too.
And yet they still let people travel yesterday, if it’s that bad you literally close the doors immediately. No one in or out.The EU Countries are doing what many of wanted the U.K. Government to do at the start of the pandemic.

Keep up the Positive thoughts mate,Thanks for your kind message - have to dig deep for a while more I guess and then hopefully see family when it's possible to do so. I will be with my mrs so not alone at least but this will be the first time in my life I never got to see my family at Christmas. I'm aware this could be worse.

The doors were closed last night. That’s a fairly swift reaction given the emerging news about the new strain. We didn’t have the balls to do that before Covid reached the U.K. (in the first wave).And yet they still let people travel yesterday, if it’s that bad you literally close the doors immediately. No one in or out.
Looks like we’re the scabs of Europe mate, locked us out , good job we didn’t feel the same panic in 1949 .Fuck me just watched a bit of CNN, we are properly being talked about like some plague Island or leper colony no one wants to go near.
Apparently South Africa has a similar new strain similar to the UK that is showing a very high infection rate.
Sorry 1939 Monday morning rant...Looks like we’re the scabs of Europe mate, locked us out , good job we didn’t feel the same panic in 1949 .
Sorry for the rant and probably the wrong thread but .. blimey hour of need and they’ve gone .
Special dispensation mate,A bigger worry is that our only vaccine is currently being manufactured in Belgium, the other side of the channel, so it's not clear they can get it through either if France stops goods coming this way, Eurotunnel has closed tonight.
We shouldn’t have run things down to the fucking wire then, should we?

What do you expect? We’ve fucked them off. And 1939 was over 80 years ago.Looks like we’re the scabs of Europe mate, locked us out , good job we didn’t feel the same panic in 1949 .

“Most vaccine doesn’t come via what is called ‘Ro-Ro’, roll-on, roll-off, which is what we are talking about here.
In other words, it’s not usually accompanied by a driver, by a haulier. It comes on those containers.
To put this into context, there are about 6,000 vehicles we would expect, just under in Dover today, probably 4,000 would have gone across from Dover, just under about 2,000 on the Eurotunnel.
But there is probably something like 32,000 units that would have been the daily total, so the vast majority - including virtually all the vaccine - actually comes via container and there are good supplies in the meantime.
So this won’t have an impact on the vaccination programme.
Please don’t forget that loads of Bluemooners have an ambition to be deep sea fishermen.We shouldn’t have run things down to the fucking wire then, should we? Live by the sword...
Gov should be having a word with themBunch of wankers Sky News also pushing food shortages, just what we need fucking panic buying from all the sheep.
This government hasn't got a fucking clue what it's doing. It needs to act tough on this latest strain and announce another national lock down. Fuck all this tier bollocks that just confuses everyone and has been proven to not work. National lock down, get as many people as possible vaccinated before it mutates again and makes the vaccine worthless.
A mate txt me lastnight,hes a porter at a private hospital,Spoke to my eldest son today, the wicked witch (his mother and my ex) who is public facing in people's homes and pretty high up in the NHS is having him, his Sister (not my child) his sister's boyfriend who are both from London & her mother in her house for a week, added to that she's holding an extended family buffet & party on Boxing Day.
There's little hope when a NHS employee does this sort of shit....and dead right I've emailed the authorities.
