COVID-19 — Coronavirus

[cleavers]

You know what exactly what is being said by the Government unless you are being deliberately obtuse

Yes I do, but it's still stupid, I can go sit in a park with someone from another household (uncontrolled), but not a beer garden (should be controlled), or my own garden. It's an economic measure, not a health measure, you can go and spend in pubs, but not have your neighbour over for a BBQ, and you can go sit at the next table to your neighbour inside a pub.

If you think that is "easy to understand" then I disagree, I'm relatively intelligent, lots of people aren't, and these are confusing signals, if you give confusing signals, then people will ignore them, it's that simple.

As I said earlier, I'm visiting the areas early next week to see my parents, and son and GF, luckily I'm staying outside GM by about 2 miles, had planned to meet our son on Tuesday, and had booked a restaurant, which I now have to cancel, but he can jump on the train, and come and have a meal where we are staying, which defeats the object completely.

It’s lockdown , but not if you are spending money, then there is an exemption.

Because the pub should be enforcing social distancing measures so those households are not coming into contact with each other.

I don't understand the rules it's very confusing.
Can I go to the pub?

Mother in law woke up this morning and set off to go swimming, got half way there and turned on the radio only to hear the news and turn around.

This is what happens when there’s zero notice.

With pals on a golf trip?

To be fair there’s only 2 out of 8 going, including me, that’s Greater Manc.

One’s Saddleworth and I’m outside of Stockport so hardly a major risk.

It’s also a week away still so things may change.

Let me be absolutely clear....he's a cock.

I think he was trying to say go where you want but stay outdoors but, to be honest if he doesn't know how the fuck can we?

I’ve just had a flashback to where he inanely laughed all the way through the interview. Asked questions about the death rate and he chuckled away. Now he’s reverted to the death-stare.

So you can’t pop round and see your family or meet your mates at the pub, but you can do both if the setting is a wedding.....

I’ve refused to criticise the government during the last four months as I was under the impression they were doing as good as anyone else would in “unprecedented times” but they can get fucked now. Incompetent twats.

I have been watching Merica closely over the last while and the over riding aim was always to talk down the threat and get the economy back.

Warning after warning that they were going too fast, too soon, were ignored, especially in red states, where those in charge were more interested in keeping their heads firmly wedged up Trumps rancid arsehole was priority number one.

Today we see where that has led them. The body bag count is set to at least double. The economy will suffer even greater strain and for what? Because a moron who claimed it was a hoax is in charge.

Switch to us, and particularly England, where it's the worst in Europe but the reduction in restrictions was set loose too soon. Again with an eye on the economy, as if the virus gave a single fuck about that. People go mad. Caution is hurled to the wind and today a region with twice the population of my wee place, is on the verge of another lockdown. If anybody thinks it will he the last, they probably think Santa is busy getting in stuff they love.

Even here, bams in pubs have caused a flare up, its relatively small for now, but we are waiting a minimum.if another three weeks to go to the level Engkand are at just now.

Around the world people facing outbreaks are being told to wear face masks at all times when out. That's coming here too. You can take that to the bank. If it's still open, which wont be fir king if we dint get a handle on this.

The Tories, seem to say something that can ge interpretated in many ways, causing confusion. They have been that way from the start and the biggest mistake we made up here was to take these useless cunts lead. Thats gone now. And has been fir months as we could see how Boris is incapable of handling it. They are a fucking joke.

I heard him try to spin that they had done fantastically well. It was just another example of putting a useless lying bastard in power and facing the consequences of that decision.

Who knows where we are headed. But, it doesn't look good and those leading your battle are not worth a single fuck.

Trump and Boris what a team. I hope they manage to contain it where you lot are. I have my doubts and until we all treat this bastard virus with the respect it deserves we will see our death toll double too. Keep safe, wear a mask at all times and avoid people you cant be sure are free of it. Oh, and dont trust Boris. Ever.
