    Complete rubbish. Throughout the pandemic Labour flip flopped and got just about every decision wrong. It was bad under the Tories but would have been a disaster under a Labour government.

    You are not talking sense...Labour could not make any decisions..THEY WERE NOT IN CONTROL.

    They had no say in this... The Conservatives made ALL THE DECISIONS..some they got right some they got wrong

    Which is why I said I could not support my argument, that they would have done better and you cannot support the argument that they would have done worse.

    Everything that happened was the responsibility of the government GOOD and BAD

    I’d love you to have a go at explaining your logic behind this one, Jeff.

    YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE IN POWER TO SAY WHAT YOU WOULD DO. EVERYTHING THEY SAID THEY WOULD DO WAS WRONG….Do you get it?

    Like close the borders in early March 2020

    Like set up a trace and track systems that were already in place using the contagious diseases system, that was overriden by Serco.

    By not accepting the covid test system bought in by SERCO from China in April 2020, when proved by SAGE to be ineffective .costing tens of millions of pounds..that were just burnt

    By not allowing people back into Care Homes who were covid positive.


    Yes you can say anything you like in opposition...but the government makes the decisions.

    The government got a lot wrong early on..
    this was NOTHING to do with labour...who had no ability to change any decisions.

    Getting back to the Queen… it makes you think that she has been sheltered from this ( which the royal correspondent said) yet she gets it. Someone has obviously messed up.

    What a strange old arguement about who would have done better or worse!

    Sounds like covid is soon to be a thing of the past! Obviously we will still catch it, spread it, get badly with it and some will die with it. We just dont want to ****ing know any numbers, so please dont test and please dont isolate.

    Cheers Col, genuine laugh out loud at that!

    Hope you are feeling better. I’m not sure about this ‘don’t bother to isolate’ stuff.

    Beth I understand that you don’t like the government… you have made this clear numerous times but you need to listen to what the opposition is saying. They have been wrong countless times.
    Remember they wanted us signed up to that EU scheme which would have been a disaster. God knows how many times they flip flopped over restrictions. That really nice comment from a Labour MP “a good crisis” (nice). That idiot Johnathan Ashworth playing politics at every opportunity.
    Plenty of mistakes all round
    As for your comments that Labour had ‘no ability to change any decisions’… what do you think the vote in the house is for?

    I know that mate.

    I'm better than I was, but definitely worse than most of the others in our little 'control group'.
    Worst sore throat I can ever remember has eased. Still a little sore and voice wiped out (MD may have to put contingencies in place for our show which opens in 17 days!).
    Headeaches have eased and not much coughing, apart from clearing phlegm.
    Strange tiredness though for no apparent reason and a real inability to concentrate, which is a really weird feeling.

    Pretty pissed off tbh.

    Amazingly, Mrs Rangercol hasn't succumbed which is quite an achievement I guess.

    Blimey mate.
    I haven’t said anything until now but I tested positive 3 weeks ago. I had a negative PCR on the Tuesday and I saw a faint line on my LFT on Thursday. On the Friday it was confirmed. I had to test 3 times a week for work. Luckily, because I wouldn’t have known I had it. All I had on the Saturday was a sniff and clear by Sunday. I had to wait 5 days to get a clear reading. TBH the psychological side of things was the worst part. I kept thinking of all those poor sods in hospital. I am all good now and happy I had to do LFT otherwise I would have been walking around positive.
    I won’t get into the politics but I can understand why people think the easing of restrictions might cause a problem.

    You wont have to do anythjng soon Ellers by the looks of it. Which then opens a can of worms. What if some employers demand lft tests? Will it be against the law to do so etc etc
