This insanity is endless...

Latest brainwave from the Cabal of Cretins is to lockdown and enforce stay at home for all of us over 50's.

Fecking good luck with that...

Just too good not to share.

"If they think us northerners fall for threats and fear they had better think again. Raves are being planned to give Blow Job a massive "V" sign. Masks my arse!"

Indeed Bt, and not just in Bolton,

"I’m in one of the areas recently “locked down” (BD20). We're actually nowhere near the city of Bradford, but presumably the Government couldn’t be bothered to plot accurate maps so just lazily locked down the whole council tax area.

Some good news. Matt Hancock’s plea for household distancing has gone down like a bucket of cold sick! Everyone I know – and I mean everyone – intends to take no notice of the new rules. Crucially, unlike in March, even the previous lockdown zealots are now jumping ship. I visited my mother-in-law's today with three generations of my family and it was totally different to March. No “sneaking around" needed. Gardens were full and people were happy to park cars outside and mingle freely as if nothing had been said. I think the penny is finally dropping. This will be forever if people go along with it this time.
The same can’t be said for local businesses, unfortunately, who have one again been thrown under a bus by these measures."

The bad news is .....£100 fines for people breaking coronavirus lockdown rules in North to come into law TODAY. Which will force people in the new targeted areas in Greater Manchester, parts of Lancashire and West Yorkshire not to visit other people's homes.


The good news is ......All these Palestinians are looking for a job tunnelling from house to house, proven experts and very cheap!

BT must be in the market to employ a few of these ----mustn't he?

[Balanbam00]

Not sure if BT has deserted them completely? News around here in the north. I can hear this drone in the sky but fail to spot it . The Iron Dome defence unit was not far from here out in the fields. I heard aircraft flying over last night and we hit Syria again. Hezbollah have been trying to infiltrate on the border in the north.......although I did see a sign:
''When things get hot here ,BT is never near?''

Councils can demolish contaminated buildings under new powers to stop second coronavirus wave

Care homes, factories, offices and even private homes could be bulldozed as last resort if virus starts to run out of control




Local authorities will be able to order the demolition of buildings at the centre of coronavirus outbreaks under draconian powers to contain a potential second wave.

Cars, buses, trains and aeroplanes could also be destroyed subject to the approval of magistrates.

Boris Johnson remains determined to avoid a second nationwide lockdown and has given a broad range of powers to local councils to contain outbreaks as soon as they are detected.

Councils will be able to draw on six separate Acts of Parliament to impose lightning closures of public buildings, order mass testing, ban events or shut down whole sectors of the economy.

They will also be able to limit school openings to set year groups and restrict travel to key workers only.

The power to demolish buildings, however, is perhaps the most striking inclusion in the Government's Covid-19 Contain Framework.

The document, published by the Department of Health and Social Care, advises councils that, under the Public Health (Control of Disease) Act 1984, they can apply to a magistrate "to impose restrictions or requirements to close contaminated premises; close public spaces in the area of the local authority; detain a conveyance or movable structure; disinfect or decontaminate premises; or order that a building, conveyance or structure be destroyed".

It raises the possibility that care homes, factories, offices or even private homes could be bulldozed as a last resort if the virus starts to run out of control, although such measures have not been considered necessary during the outbreak.

Downing Street regards local or regional lockdowns as the way forward in containing coronavirus.

Councils have been given a list of all the laws they can use to restrict people's movement and behaviour, including the Coronavirus Act 2020.

Among the range of powers set out in the Government's advice to councils is the ability to "close certain businesses and venues (for example shops, cafes, gyms, recreation centres, offices, labs, warehouses); close outdoor public areas (for example parks, playgrounds, beaches, esplanades, outdoor swimming pools) and order deep-cleans of buildings or vehicles linked to outbreaks".

Obviously I'm not privy to the workings of every individual council in the UK but if Bolton Council are the yardstick, then may God fecking help us.

They can't even organise the filling of potholes in our roads, never mind tackle a virus.

"Councils can demolish contaminated buildings under new powers to stop second coronavirus wave"

Westminster Council could order the destruction of the Palace of Westminster, preferably including it's occupants as well, that would help for starters.
