No medics don’t run the country
Most people support new lockdown rules | YouGov
A snap YouGov poll finds more than three quarters in favour of the new restrictionsyougov.co.uk
It's the medical advice that should lead anyway. Not me, or anybody else.
I’m not I’m saying it will still help and these problems will be sorted very quickly
Locking kids up in University Halls and not allowing them home is a fresh kind of hell.
Meanwhile Johnson's dad who is in the vulnerable age category can fuck off whenever he likes to pretty much wherever he likes.

The virus is being used a weapon to remove civil liberties of those not in privileged positions
But when you've got a deadly pandemic around they need to be allowed much louder voices. Certainly on a par with the usual economy driven rhetoric.
Businesses leaders are allowed opinions on how stuff like healthcare and education should be run.
He won’t though - because he knows and you probably deep down know that they aren’t safe in terms of stopping the spread of the virus (not the effect of the virus itself).I want him to put his money where his mouth is on ‘schools are safe’ and allow us to work unrestricted. If they are then I shouldn’t have to behave like a surgeon each time I enter a classroom

We’ve got cases soaring and would be a lot higher if there were sufficient testing facilities, and this is with these kind of measures we are having to work in.
For practical subjects like yours I totally agree, this arrangement is crap and you’ve been given no proper support from exam boards, Ofqual or other organisations that should be working overtime to find a way to mitigate for this.You also probably deep down know that teaching in the half way house is farcical and cheapens the idea that kids are getting a proper education in it. Let us teach normally and the masses of asymptomatic children will become asymptomatic off each other. Ignoring of course that flu and cold will make them more ill this winter. Unpopular to say but I will say it anyway
Neighbour turned up back at his house at about 10:20 last night, pissed out his head, with a couple of mates.
Thought he was back early, then realised it was because the pub had closed at 10. Just shows, it's a stupid compromise that pleases nobody. May as well leave the pubs open, if you're not prepared to close them and offer some aid to tide them over. This just hurts their business, and does nothing to stop transmission.
You either let it carry on, or close them. It's true that leaving them open will increase transmission, while it's also true that restricting their trade will hurt pubs financially. To manage to do both serves nobody.seeing pictures from all over country of impromptu gatherings post closing time.
Me and the wife decided to nip into the Aardvark early evening for a couple on Friday. Every guideline was adhered to, including wearing a mask when you leave your table. If people stick to that then it doesn't really matter what time it is.
I suppose there's a train of thought that as people drink more things start to slip but the staff there seemed to marshall it well and were on top of things.

I’m sorry I can’t agree about the mass immunity notion. We do not know if there are kids that have underlying issues that haven’t been discovered, who kids interact with in their family units that are at risk as well as the proportion of kids that themselves are high risk. Add to that no trace and track system and you have the potential for carnage.
Every child in the system should be given the seasonal flu vaccination this year to try and combat further illness.
Has anyone seen the coronavirus ad from the mad Sturgeon

Did it say, danger danger danger... Westminster, Scotland must decide
It’s obscene. Google it and watch
Yea just saw, slightly OTT.. Mind you that's her all over... OTT
I do agree on this point. I am finding it really difficult to offer any kind of meaningful feedback during a lesson because it have to stay in my ‘box’ at the front.It already happens Ian, lots of mixing within the year group and between them because of siblings-the only thing I’m asking is to let the teacher go over and help.

Coronavirus: NHS tracing app problem that left tens of thousands of tests unlogged has been fixed, government says
The issue had appeared to undermine the app, which warns people when they have come into contact with anyone who tests positive.news.sky.com
Cool now they need to find a way of adding the couple of 100k tests results that couldn't be entered.
While they are at it they can fix the issue that means you can't check out of a pub unless you check into a new one meaning lots of people could be advise to self isolate wrongly.
Pete you are smarter than this I hope, it's a half finished piece of shit that while do more harm than good.
It won’t let me change my postcode after I put in the wrong one by error
You need to select about the appIt won’t let me change my postcode after I put in the wrong one by error
Yep it's glitchy as fuck. You'd think a tracing app would make use of the geolocation features and work out where you are.
They haven't really fixed the app test results issue either as you then have to go and actually request a code.
Why have we released a half finished app that adds very little. Money would of been better spent on the local PH teams who are experience track and tracers.
You need to select about the app
And then manage my data and you can change the postcode
It’s about creating a perception of being seen to make progress. Like sending people back to school and uni, or stopping the briefings, or releasing half baked apps
True but it’s far from shit. My uni experts think it will make a big differenceCheers Pete wasn’t obvious
Loads of people complaining that they are unable to check in and all the the app people say is "you need to use an official NHS QR code" but people were. They can't check into places like Maccies etc.
