'Non-vaccinated travellers arriving from Spain, Portugal, Cyprus, the Netherlands and Greece must present upon boarding a negative PCR or antigenic test taken less than 24 hours before departure.'

Those are the rules for the first border crossing I did yesterday. It wasn't enforced.

Doesn’t that come into force this Sunday?
Ahh think it was the decree published last night?

Are you vaccinated?

No.

From 5th July the rules applied to non vaccinated. (Remember vaccination rates on the continent are largely lower than the UK). From this weekend there are new rules regarding a wider scope of countries, but they don't make any difference to me or where I've travelled from.

No I'm not yet.

Perhaps you should have done a bit more research before you started making sarcastic comments.

Just stay safe, it sounds like a disaster area over there, and looking forward to further updates from behind enemy lines

Thank you. Appreciated.

For EU travel here they consider those with a first dose to be considered vaccinated - I have a 'green pass' with only one vaccine.
A lot of countries are now over 40% fully vaccinated, BTW.
Have you not had any vaccination at all? Fair enough if you don't want to answer.

 

[Sick Boy]

Even if he has been, they may not recognise it, the same way the UK doesn't with the EU ones....which is incredible.

No it's fine. I'm going to have it but I've just been out of the UK for the last month, so it isn't really fair for me to make an appointment when I can't commit.

I don't know how many young people in France and Spain have had it, but I assume it is less than the UK.

Chris Whitty,that bundle of joy who‘s not even been elected by anybody,coming out & saying England to be locked down again potentially in 5 weeks - why? Death rates are flatlined…wouldn’t surprise me at all if Boris u-turns before Monday….View attachment 21003

Chief Medical Officer in talking about medical matters shocker!

Am I the last to see that Sajid Javid tested positive

It's almost like he isn't qualified for the job.

 

[skybluetony176]

That seems to be the first qualification required to be in this government.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Con + 10 starmer would be worse

 

[COV]

On the contrary, this kind of stupidity makes him perfectly suited to a government position

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Man of the people. Most of us aren't sure what we're supposed to do either given the messaging has been so unclear.

 

[baldy]

Course he's not elected you fucking roaster. He's doing his job.

So why’s he not mentioning the death rates flatlining then?

 

[Skybluefaz]

So why’s he not mentioning the death rates flatlining then?

He has mentioned the effect of the vaccine and I haven't even seen much of the news lately. Wtf was the not even elected shit about? Been listening to Farage too much.

 

[COV]

So why’s he not mentioning the death rates flatlining then?

Banging on about things flatlining might have been a bit insensitive m8

 

[skybluetony176]

So why’s he not mentioning the death rates flatlining then?

Does it have anything to do with them not flatlining?

Brown-lidded bin collections update - 13 July

Due to the high number of our crews required to isolate, we have taken the difficult decision to suspend garden waste collection from Wednesday 14 July with a review in two weeks' time. This will mean we have enough crews to collect scheduled household and recycling bins. Thanks for your patience.

Yet again,something’s happened on a Saturday to one of our government members so that all of the news tomorrow will be focussed on Sajid & his coming down with the corona & taking the attention away from ‘freedom day’ Monday…hmmm
There does seem to be a pattern of Saturday events such as Handcock getting caught out & Boriss wedding - well played MSM

 

[baldy]

Yes they actually are…look on the ONS website,it’s not me trying to make things up,it’s actual fact

Make sure you’ve got your tinfoil hat to hand.
The Hancock news broke on a week day as well.

Anyone that refers to it as the “MSM” as if it’s an offshoot of the Illuminati is usually jam packed full of conspiracy nonsense

The 7 day average at the beginning of the month was 17, it’s now running at 49. In what world is that a flatline?

I suppose compared to 2000 it is

Got my neighbour loudly playing an anti vax podcast in his garden just now. ‘The one thing we can control is where we get our information’, it says…

 

[LastGarrison]

Is Monday and for the next few weeks just the equivalent to Pox parties?

Everyone else batten down the hatches and just let it rip around the ones who are least likely to die from this in order to get to the Holy Grail of herd immunity?

 

[robbiekeane]

It doesn't matter what I do or do not expect. It's funny that people are trying to lecture me on travel. I speak 5 languages, have lived in 3 different countries, and travel regularly. I just made the point that it is easy to break the rules on the continent if you wanted to.

hahahahahaha STOP LAUGHING AT ME I SPEAK FIVE LANGUAGES

Seems train companies can waive Scottish guidance on social distance too...

Funny how train companies are still keen to soak their trains and stations in disinfectant

COVID-19 rarely spreads through surfaces. So why are we still deep cleaning?

The coronavirus behind the pandemic can linger on doorknobs and other surfaces, but these aren’t a major source of infection.

Covid: PM and chancellor not isolating after Javid test

Labour questions the "VIP testing" regime allowing them to work after Sajid Javid tested positive.
