  1. Reminds me of David Bradley in Hot Fuzz
  2. When hes on the radio in the combine, haha.
  3. Fair enough bud, I think I'm just annoyed to **** with the whole situation, but its like a car crash when you cant help but look.
  4. Some good points in this about cases and SAGE predictions in this.
  5. Im glad someome isn't ignorant to the dangers of these policies.
  6. I think you missed his point entirely, your reply is facetious. The way this government is acting is exactly the slippery slope we need to avoid. The gov using behavioural scientist advisors to control and scare people to ensure compliance (minuted), millions and millions spent on propaganda that they have paid for into the next year or so, I dont watch TV but the radio adverts are absolutely atrocious. Its like something from the cold war, "its invisible, it could be lurking anywhere". Peter Hitchens has written plenty about it - "Modern China is a horrible place, cruel, ruthless and unembarrassed. But for some reason SAGE came to like Peking’s Covid strategy. Ferguson told The Times that ‘as the data accrued it became clear it was an effective policy’. I’d be interested to know how the SAGE geniuses evaluated data from this police state, which lacks a free press or independent universities. But there. Even so, they hesitated. As Ferguson says: ‘It’s a Communist one-party state, we said. We couldn’t get away with it in Europe, we thought.’ Aren’t those words ‘we couldn’t get away with it’ interesting? Is this the way in which public servants in a free country think of the normal limits on what they can do? I can only hope not. But Ferguson and his friends then saw what happened in Italy, where a formerly free country reached for the weapons of repression and mass house arrest. And the rule of fear was so great that they got away with it. So we were next. Or, as Ferguson puts it: ‘And then Italy did it. And we realised we could.’" Your view against compulsory vaccination and opinion on people not being able to participate in elements of society if electing not to be vaccinated kind of conflict, coercion on that level could easily lead to compulsion. A very dangerous path to go down.
  7. The decision to extend is a political decision, not a health one, they know people will die but they want to be seen to be doing the right thing by the majority of the pant ****ting public.
  8. Nice to see Boris bumbling through the questions again.
  9. The last time they had a big march in London I dont recall much trouble if any at all. Because when people get to that point of not thinking for themselves they wont question anything or stand up for anything, they'll go along with anything imposed on them.
  10. Wonder how many will turn out for the march on the 26th.
  11. Will he have the sizing details as I couldnt see them in the description?
  12. Infections that arent translating to large numbers of deaths and overwhelmed hospitals isnt justification.
  13. To justify extending restrictions to 19th July, which seems like its what hes going to do.
  14. What sort of mumbling excuses does everyone expect this evening? "Just a couple of more weeks to assess the data" "We must take a cautious approach" "Variants of concern" "In this together"
  15. The Alaskans seem to like them as they aren't very heavy and quick to cycle without operating a bolt. They also fire the big 430grain bullets with 3600ft/lb of muzzle energy, people drop 800lb bison with them, it'd give a good chance at least.
  16. Kaleb is good on camera and the dry stone waller's mullet gets better during lockdown. Haha.
  17. Im on ep4, I like it. Its like a Top Gear farming special with Jeremy trying a bit of Johnny Kingdom and River Cottage haha. Also his dry stone walling mate with the mullet is like something out of Hot Fuzz. Brilliant.
  18. Time to write an 18 words, they could have been 18 words saying what the officers should have done.
  19. The obsession with case numbers and tracing is odd, its peddled everyday and no doubt will be used on Monday to extend the end date of restrictions despite the lack of deaths. I hope there is uproar. Does anybody want to play Boris Bingo on Monday to see what phrases are used? Im going for these - "Just a couple of more weeks to assess the data" "We must take a cautious approach" "Variants of concern" "In this together"
  20. What I would say is that the 3 pubs shouldnt shut because of cases and we should carry on regardless.
  21. Wow, 4 cases of people that probably felt under the weather for two days but stayed home for another 8. Just to be safe we best stay locked down and ruin more businesses and restrict more liberties. Those outbreaks dont matter, they're not transforming into deaths and massive intensive care usage. Stop treating this like its Ebola, treat it like a common cold and crack on. What a joke.
