These people are power mad.
Have to learn to live with no COVID ....no **** Sherlock .....
Wonder if protest march in Glasgow had an effect.
There's surely nowhere left for the politicians of doom and mad scientists to hide.
Learn to live ain't good enough for me though ....never again should be the mantra
But she won't lift restrictions for football crowds.

She is playing with fire if she does not lift the restrictions for football crowds especially as Nippy did not have the common sense to speak to the bosses of the SPFL and SFA before bringing in the pointless restriction of a maximum 500 people attending a football match in Scotland. If the large crowd restrictions are not lifted the football supporters will never forget and hopefully extract their revenge at the forthcoming local authority elections this May by not voting for the SNP candidates. At least the Scottish Rugby bosses have the right idea by threatening to move the Scotland rugby matches from Murrayfield to St James’s Park in Newcastle.
What happened to the NHS Scotland vaccine passports which Nippy said everyone needed to attend sports events with over 10,000 spectators plus people attending nightclubs was the way to defeat the virus.
No doubt they have been quietly forgotten about as they are not working.
Ridiculous rules continue.
If only someone had warned us restrictions forevermore.😁
As far as I am aware the useless vaccine passports will only have to be shown for attendances over 10,000.
Apart from the Derby against the Dabs on 1st February there will be no other attendances this season at Dens Park over 10k.
In my opinion it is doubtful if there will be 10k spectators at the match against the Dabs as it is likely that a number of people supporting both clubs who had returned to stay in the Dundee area for New Year can now no longer attend next month’s rearranged match.
They might return their ticket to receive a refund which could reduce the number of seats sold for the game to below the ‘magic’ 10k figure to avoid 50% of the spectators at the game having to a show a vaccine passport prior to entry.

Papers are reporting that the new rules relate to all events attracting over 1,000 people not 10,000. If we actually do have to challenge half the crowd to prove vaccination (three doses as well) or negative Lateral Flow Test then they'll better open the gates fine and early and folk will have to turn up early to get in. In the real world though I expect we will do the best we can re testing and check as many as we can. Then of course there is the fact that LFTs are virtually meaningless as a weapon in identifying whether a body has Covid when all you have to do is report a negative test whether it is positive, negative or whether you even bothered to do the darn test in the first place. More virtue signalling and a pointless exercise.
