Might be worth asking for a heads up on the next one so we're all prepared.The amount of people who think the vote is a vote to extend the lockdown rather than a vote to extend the lockdown laws is off the scale. Granted, some are naively falling for it in good faith but it's also brought all the tin foil hat wearing fuckwits out of the woodwork again who are busy spreading their lies and misinformation. I'm going to take great delight in ramming their shitty conspiracies back down their throats in the summer when we're all back out on the piss again. Sure, foreign holidays will probably be off the agenda for now which makes sense for both the UK and our European friends until they get up to speed on vaccinations, but the UK will be back to relative normality and it'll be interesting to see what new shite the conspiracy theorists will come out with then.
all i've seen on social media are the same people more interested in jetting off for a summer holiday moaning about being banned from leaving the UK.
These can and should be very beneficial for those of us in the UK. Health and business wise.
Sunday I had mine. Woke up yesterday feeling a bit fatigued, but by 4pm I was flat out on the sofa. Not asleep, but completely zoned out. Ached to walk around and my arm felt like it had been battered. All fine today.Just had my first Jab, ran like clockwork so well done to all volunteers and professionals concerned.
I don't think we should normalise making people craving a very normal thing (a holiday) as the villains. It's nonsense. They've get every right to be upset. We're all missing living. It doesn't make them selfish.
I wasn't calling them selfish.
I was supposed to go Amsterdam last year with a friend, and had it deferred until June this year,
No point in going over if were just going to keep going back to square one every 5/6 months.
The ones on social media (mine in particular) are the ones who have been out all through lockdown partying at peoples houses, going abroad last summer catching covid, continuing with what they want again after being ok.
If we have the weather like we did last year during lockdown 1, UK holidays will become so much more appealing
AZ again under fire for the manner in which they've presented their data, this time on their announcement yesterday morning.
Tempted not to take the Twitter post seriously, looking at who posted it.
People are not selfish for wanting to do things. Doing them - when in contravention of the rules - is selfish however.I don't think we should normalise making people craving a very normal thing (a holiday) as the villains. It's nonsense.

in today's cases, there were 1,914 LFD tests positive reported from Sunday 21st in England, by far the largest amount from that source yet. Which means there'll either be a bit of a cases increase this week or the PCR positives are going to crash and the line stay flat. I think the former. fair warning folks, probably a case increase by specimen date (which we wont know until next week probably!!).

I was merely jesting about his rather unfortunate name.He's been consistently one of the most measured and balanced voices throughout this whole thing.
Do you ever agree with what anyone saysHe's been consistently one of the most measured and balanced voices throughout this whole thing.

The implication seemed pretty clear to me, but fair enough if you didn't mean it that way. The UK is great, but a glorious getaway it is not. I'm sick of this place right now. Last place I want to be is in the UK. I won't go abroad cos its not worth the hassle, but I certainly understand why many are craving it. I get your point re the square one stuff, but as always, two contrasting things can be right at the same time. They've got every right to moan about if they want, cos they're not wrong are they?

We are all making huge sacrifices so that as a whole, we can get out of this mess sooner rather than later and with the minimum numbers of deaths. People who ignore the rules and who therefore by their actions, increase levels of infection, prolong how long we all have to put up with restrictions, and also who contribute to higher numbers of deaths? If that is not selfish, I do not know what is.
No exactly they can moan.
But i suppose if the plan is set out more clearly than we may have less moaning about it.
We are giving up something atm.
I know you may not like UK for holidaying but there are so many places we can visit here that are beautiful
