Yeah. I had two very scary experiences on New Years Eve and have taken against the false bonhomie very strongly.I'll certainly celebrate becoming a sovereign nation again (couldn't resist), but it will be at home.
I've never been a huge fan of the whole New Year's Eve pissed out of my mind thing anyway.
However, considering how vital it is for so many in this country to do just that, I reckon there'll be an awful lot of non compliance with regards to social distancing.
With no winding up intended I am genuinely curious as to what the guidance will be. The London fireworks have been cancelled, decent call, but no guarantee that big crowds won’t gather anyway. Other countries have issued ‘please don’t’ type statements already.
Merkel, a proper scientist (doctorate in quantum chemistry) was almost in tears in the German Parliament the other day as she pleaded with the nation to take this seriously.
She's been booted out of the SNP, but not had the dignity to resign - another ****
That pug faced “Scottish independence” freak also broke rules and tried to cover it up. Seems everyone has been at it?
Seems to be a pre-requisite for politicians all over - thought you weren't interested in politics these days?
Eer that’s not what I have said. I actually said the other thread became unsavoury. Sadly when some posters don’t have an answer they throw in the race card. I also said politics is in limbo, which it is.
However we are discussing Covid. I don’t recall you or many others complaining about the amount of posts on this thread about Cummings when he broke the rules? As soon as it’s one of your own, you don’t want to discuss it, or you call it politics?
Just had the flu jab. Interesting experience, looked like it was going to be horrendous as the queue snaked around the block, but it moved fast and I’d estimate maximum 4 minutes actually inside the practice to register and get the jab. I was done at my scheduled appointment time to my surprise. They were trying to get 500 done before 10.00 a.m. this morning, and were well on track. Staff were polite and efficient, though it must have been a shock to them to actually see patients on their premises. Everybody was masked up, including in the queue outside, but little effort to social distance.
Pretty obviously a dry run for mass covid vaccinations and not a bad one. However, it won’t work like this, as the Pfizer COVID vaccine requires a 15 minute observation period because of the allergic reactions those two nurses had, so it’s a much more time consuming process. Interesting that the MRHA has not yet given approval to the AZ/Oxford jab......this bizarre approach to trial design and in particular reporting might be a genuine issue. Hope not, as I have no doubt it’s safe and effective enough.

One of my own? Please expand upon your definition, as I certainly don't have any affiliation with any of these ****ers, North or South of the border....except Gove, as he supports QPR
Burley.
You have told me many times You don’t support SNP. We are discussing Covid.
How the **** is Burley one of my own? I've never watched Sky News, and wouldn't even know who she was if you didn't keep bleating on about the stupid bitch. Burn her and all her cronies for all I care - she broke the rules and deserves to be dragged through the streets naked and pelted with stones like the rest of the high profile ****s who flagrantly disregard the guidelines.
Well we have a new vaccine. Oxford one will get the go ahead in 10 days. Hancock's stock has gone up.
The reason we still have high numbers is because many people have not listened to the guidelines, acted irresposnsibly and we are paying the price. Kay Burley is a prime example of the way many act.
I'll tell you what SM. I bet you, that you have mentioned more about Cummings than the 5-6 posts I have on Burley?
PS you are lucky to have missed SkyNews.

Obviously...as that was months ago, and Burley is new news.....I'm sure if you counted the posts you've made about Sir Woodentop, Comrade Corbyn, or any other politician who is your anti-flavour of the month it'll surpass any amount of comments I've made about Cummings (who is yesterdays news anyway).
You do have a choice not to watch Sky News you know!
After all the crap I have given them... I have returned to BBC and sometimes watch a bit of EuroNews or French news. Sky are shocking and I have just cancelled my subscriptions from £90 to £25PM.Obviously...as that was months ago, and Burley is new news.....I'm sure if you counted the posts you've made about Sir Woodentop, Comrade Corbyn, or any other politician who is your anti-flavour of the month it'll surpass any amount of comments I've made about Cummings (who is yesterdays news anyway).

Hancock stock gone up? Are you kidding? Did you not see his fake crying the other day? Literally the most cringy thing I've seen. No way does he deserve credit for vaccine success.
Stop talking rubbish. We know you don't like the government. but he has come up trumps with the vaccine. Just celebrate the fact that people can now get protection rather than playing politics.
