You don't have to take multiple screen shots.


I will be wearing a mask in shops (and limiting my trips). I’m not sure how being considerate to others for the common good is now being mocked by some who are calling it “living in fear”, but it needs to stop... When I wear a mask over my nose and mouth at work, in public and in the stores/supermarkets/pharmacies/offices - I want you to know the following: I'm educated enough to know that I could be asymptomatic and still give you the virus. No, I don't "live in fear" of the virus; I just want to be part of the solution, not the problem. I don't feel like the "government controls me". I feel like I'm an adult contributing to the security in our society and I want to teach others the same. If we could all live with the consideration of others in mind, the whole world would be a much better place. Wearing a mask doesn't make me weak, scared, stupid or even "controlled". It makes me caring and responsible. When you think about your appearance, discomfort, or other people's opinion of you, imagine a loved one - a child, father, mother, grandparent, aunt, uncle or even a stranger - placed on a ventilator, alone without you or any family member allowed at their bedside...Ask yourself if you could have helped them a little by wearing a mask. I copied and posted...Who else will follow me?.

And I’ll add to that mate, if you don’t like wearing a face mask YOURE GONNA HATE A VENTILATOR RAMMED DOWN YOUR THROAT.
ignorant morons.
 
Of course test and trace has been outsourced. Where else is the manpower going to come from?

Of course the people answering the phones are going to be untrained. We haven't had anything of this scale for 100 years and all the trained people are needed to do other things.

How does outsourcing directly benefit anyone in the Conservative party? It doesn't.

Covid isn't some Tory conspiracy. Its a virus that no one has ever had to deal with before. Of course they're getting things wrong. Of course they could have handled some things better, but that would be the same no matter who was running it.

Be sensible. Stay safe. Don't put yourself or anyone else at unnecessary risk. That's all anyone can do. If that means using the NHS app, I'm quite happy to do it.
These ridiculous conspiracy theories are dangerous.

Bang on.

The app will take a while to have an effect but when it does it will be a massive tool in helping us through this.

It’s also created tens of thousands of temporary jobs with short training and immediate starts at a time when many folk have lost their income.

It’s not a government win as we should have had it 6 months ago, but better late than never and however it’s ran is far less important than the fact it’s now up and running.

They are ****s giving friends and family all these other lucrative contracts mind, that sentiment is accurate.

You mean that Owen Paterson stuff? Its not right, but you can see why companies want to take these people on as consultants- gives them a boost in situations like this. The companies are just as much in the wrong as the MPs in my opinion. And its not just limited to the Tories. There are prominent Labour people who act as consultants for private companies too.

Oh aye mate this want a Tory dig, it’s gone on for all eternity regardless of who is in power.

That said, I suppose it’s no different to me giving a pal a job, just that I don’t work for a company paying with public money.
