    Just when you think we are coming out the other side up pops another variant this time from India,how the phuck did over 70 cases of that one end up in the UK?.
    I still expect the CEO of Edinburgh airport on the radio this week saying we should all be allowed to pack the airports out and fly all over the world cause its dead safe.
    The Indian variant is under investigation to see if it can bypass the vaccine's and lead to a third wave.I doubt if we will get anywhere near normality until we stop importing new types of Covid.

    The story below only broke during the Stranraer v Hibs match but it confirms my worst fears from the post above.

    Totally agree with her just get everyone coming in checked and isolated just common sense.Even if someone coming in from new zealand etc does not mean they have not been to africa brazil or india or come into contact with someone who has been.If boris not going to agree with her then stop travel again from england to scotland until it is sorted or people traveling isolate.

    Yes mate here is the big problem with Boris and his traffic light system and this is FACT.


    Lets say that Greece is on green so safe as phuck,Westminster will say you can all go to Greece this summer and do not have to isolate when you return.
    The problem is there maybe other tourists from another 100 countries there at the same time and are carrying the virus possibly a new variant without even knowing it.
    They will be dancing,sh@gging,drinking etc etc with them for a fortnight and we will all be back in lockdown by the autumn,i do not think i'm being melodramatic here that's exactly what i think will happen if new variants can escape the vaccine's.
    We all know that a party supported by big business needs to return the favour and that is my worst fear,if only Labour had got its act together in England eh?.

    Bud, far from melodramatic as that is so close to what actually happened last year! Boris let everyone travel, dont travel, travel in the same sentence which led to people on a flight at Stansted having to get off because of positive test notification, country after country dropping off the safe list after being invaded by the British with hot spots all over England that eventually re-seeded the virus up here!

    I really dont want to see our external borders being opened up, i dont even want people to criss-cross our land border until everyone in the UK has has their second dose. However, as most variants have been proved to have been imported, barring the Kent yin, i would be happy locking the borders and helping the UK economy from within.

    100% right anyone who has to go abroad this year to any country should have to Isolate that would not make boris popular though so he is f..king about with his it's ok to go here or there nonsense.Wee nic should make a stand and shut border like it is now if he will not use common sense and tell everyone up here that if they must go abroad for holiday they must isolate problem is might not make her too popular.

    Although this has been my stance throughout this damn pandemic, i think we need to start emerging from this, control the external borders and start building the UK economy from within our own borders. With the vaccine programme doing so well, the whole UK on the same page with virus prevalence, i think the time is now to start rebuilding.

    Edit to say that looking at the up to date figures from the NHS, with only 3 highest local authority areas being in the 50s, i think Nic should have the balls to put the whole country into Tier 2 next week. That has to be followed up by fast and decisive action if any area shows an increase!

    Im actually sick of saying it, but we really should have quarantined all travellers coming into the country with obvious exceptions like aff shore. Apparently this Indian mutation has 2 spikes of concern that are prevalent in other variants, but i expect the current vaccines will prove their worth. I do though hope that the identified cases have been isolated and there is no further transmission.
