I don't know either. Why the hell we continue to call it a lockdown when this kind of thing is going on.

No you asked me if l lived on the isle of wight in a sarcastic way. I pointed out you have already replied to a post that linked yo the story.Give it a fucking break David, do you get a buzz out of pissing people off?
Are you confident they will actually achieve that? Remember Hancock promising to “test 100,000 people per day” by the end of April? Here's the figures for May:
Still not close to the 100,000 a day let alone the 200,000 a day Johnson promised by the end of May.
He gives the impression he is making it up as he goes along, giving any answer that will take the pressure off him. Today he has promised huge pay rises to NHS staff despite the Treasury talking about public sector pay freezes, which one do we believe?
Hmmm. What it also shows is we need a properly thought through system. We can't go through the next few months re-opening places, only to slam them shut every other week because somebody's got it - that'll end up more chaos then keeping everything shut!As they’ve all been in ‘contact‘ with the person infected they all have been told to self-isolate.. staff and students (and I guess their families too)
We haven’t been told the details but makes you wonder who contracted from who. If it was a staff member did they get from a child of a key worker? Or did child get from a staff member... or child to child....
What we need is some way to track the movement of the virus...
No, have you seen the daily briefings with public questions.Even better once a month with the PM facing questions from the public.
They can't yet due to social distancing.He was a bit better than last week but still got owned.
If they let it go back to the braying mob it'll be a travesty and show it's got nothing to do with accountability. I'd be quite happy for there to just be a weekly televised meeting between the PM and opposition leader with no-one else present. Then PMQ's can be used for all the fluff and constituency stuff.

As the speaker said the chamber was at capacity so they can't safely get anymore people in.

I'd be ok with that as well as the PM v Opposition. Public don't necessarily have access to the same info and some just don't get it. Johnson would probably do quite well in that sort of scenario - gets to play his bumbling buffoon character.
Plus you'd get those that support the party going on to ask "does the PM agree with me that he's a top bloke" while those opposed could just become ranty and abusive and undo any credibility of holding to account.
Going to be a whileI meant once restrictions are removed.
This was my point early. He is making Boris defeat himselfJust read this thread on Starmers use of PMQs which makes some good points:

Completely coincidentally after another week where the lack of a baying crowd has exposed Johnson the remote option is being removed and MPs have to return to the chamber.I meant once restrictions are removed.
Can you not see the issue? It was only lunchtime today we had this:Give it a fucking break David, do you get a buzz out of pissing people off?
We've had weeks of being told how this app was vital. Any criticism of us going it alone and using a different app to the rest of the world was brushed aside with a vague 'stop being negative'. Now it turns out our state of the art system will be to do it all by hand. It's embarrassing.A smartphone app for tracking people who have been in contact with Covid-19 patients will not be ready for 1 June, when the next stage of the government’s relaxation of lockdown is due to begin, Downing Street has confirmed.
Junior health minister Lord Bethell indicated that the government was no longer trying to get the app - currently being trialled on the Isle of Wight - into action at the same time as the tracing teams.
Speaking late on Tuesday in the House of Lords, the peer said: “We have therefore changed the emphasis of our communications and plans to put human-contact tracing at the beginning of our plans and to regard the app as something that will come later in support.”
That just means less mps can speak at debates. At PMQs they are still limited by social distancing.Completely coincidentally after another week where the lack of a baying crowd has exposed Johnson the remote option is being removed and MPs have to return to the chamber.
Also, is this really the right time for a recess?

I was just pointing out to the Geoffrey that he had actually already replied to a post saying thisCan you not see the issue? It was only lunchtime today we had this:
Literally within a couple of hours we had this:

177k tests done and still only 2.4k new cases! The end is in sight.... also deaths down substantially from last Wednesday
Is that just for one day? The figures weren't available yesterday due to a 'technical issue with the data collection systems'.177k tests done
Yes it’s a high number but if we follow the trends in 2 weeks it Hopefully be right down, I rekon by June we might be having single digits or even no deathsStill 360 and far too high-not being negative just a realist

You are all a bnuch of cnuts
Just read this thread on Starmers use of PMQs which makes some good points:
Don't hold back
Better than being a lefty righty labour loving toryYou are all a bnuch of cnuts
Not you. You’re all right. One of the good ones.
There were not 177k tests done.177k tests done and still only 2.4k new cases! The end is in sight.... also deaths down substantially from last Wednesday
He was Danish, Cnut is the correct spelling.I like it when someone uses Wiki and tries to sound clever especially when quoting an alternate spelling from wiki to sound amazingly intelligent - still spelling my name wrong and not understanding that all he’s doing is an anagram competition to describe himself
Get the point he's making but pushing the PM, or whoever is standing in for him, to commit to specifics is of no use if nothing happens when they fail. We all know they very clearly said they'd be testing 100K people a day, every day, by the start of May. That still isn't happening and is hardly mentioned.Just read this thread on Starmers use of PMQs which makes some good points:
That can’t be true. Honest Boris said no British PM would or should accept that deal at a DUP conference.In Brexit news, just announced that indeed there will now be checks on goods coming to GB from NI, starting January
Department of Health have now released their figures and its 60,744 people tested.There were not 177k tests done.
It includes tests posted again
That Boris disappeared as soon as the headline became wrapping for chips.Horrific mate, I watched this video earlier and it has made me feel physically sick to think how we treat good people who are putting themselves in the line of fire
