Seven Covid deaths

[thegen65]

Some excellent posts on this thread gents, really enjoyed reading them and hearing all points of views and differing opinions.

[QUOTE=Returnofrros;39935263]The proof is there bcram, it's always been there ....from the South African experience, to the low hospitalisations, to the flat lining death rate, to the 4 times as many tests to get less than a 50% increase in cases like for like against last year.

The evidence is there.

This country is in the process of a revolution.

People have to stop testing, stop complying and start to ridicule the people making the decisions......or they will continue, every winter, effecting more and more lives.....they cannot believe they are getting away with this.

Leeds fans, darts fans and dare I say Ant and ****ing Dec have a far bigger effect than they think.....politicians don't like ridicule.

I remember the anti Thatcher chants at the cup final sometime in the 80s a bit of brutalist industrialised chanting about sturgeon at the football would make her wince.....did she even ever come back to Scotland.

Keep politics out of sport and football I can hear you say but she has imposed herself on sport and into our lives, she deserves the Johnson treatment but I know Scots just don't seem to have the stomach for the fight.
And it's not even politics, it's her, she now believes it is her right to impose these restrictions, there must be plenty in the SNP who think she's as mad as a dab whose just his boiler suit shrunk in the wash.....but none will step forward.[/QUOTE
Don't agree we are in the process of a revolution. Do agree that ridicule can be a good weapon to use against politicians.

Watching Nicola today and over the past few days it always seems she looks cheerier when giving us 'bad news'. She certainly did not look too glum telling us about the increase in restrictions and, in her opinion, hellish outlook for the future with Covid. Ach it's maybe my imagination but what I'm pretty sure of she looked right pissed off having to say that the Omicron variant might be less of a threat to health, quickly moving on to the effect the "vast increase in cases" will have on the NHS.

Oh and why is everything difficult, not easy with her; the number of times she says that in speeches is incredible. Oh and of course everything is 'important'. If anyone played that daft drinking game, where you have a drink when a commentator or pundit says one of their pet phrases, with wee Nic saying the word important they would end up in hospital with alcoholic poisoning

Agree with all of that she's loving it.

And I'm not letting weak Johnson off but she has more impact than him on our lives.

Sturgeon, the Welsh nutter, the NZ freak and the guy in charge of Victoria (I think) the worst of the worst.

The only good thing out of all of this is it's giving everyone a taster of what an independent Scotland may look and feel like.if the SNP were in power and maybe what we would get looking at the Welsh prat if labour were in power in an independent Scotland.

Donald Dewar, John Smith even Gordon Brown would never have acted in this cavalier manner.with people's lives.

Hibs and Don's fans chanting about sturgeon last night.....good.

Oh and Mr Hitches suggesting Blair maybe away to go for the labour leadership again.

God help us.

Blair is peeved that he can no longer become President of the EU.

45% less likely to attend A and E, 70% less likely to be hospitalised.

Tsunami.

A disgrace.

Night clubs told to close now unless they can comply with ridiculous restrictions. No furlough so businesses and jobs gone.

And before someone posts but we have more cases, we have 50% more cases cause we have tested 400% more

As I said before 1000 cases where nobody's actually ill is are no worse than 100 cases where nobody's actually ill.
