    Agree, I don't see how isn't. I will brake it down and say the Asian community.

    The government know this but just not directly saying it. Can't tell me Leicester Asian community don't have links this the other countries on the watchlist.

    They were basically saying it in the commons at the start of the week and suggestions like doing messages in different languages etc.

    Boris at PMQs listed Leciester, Kirklees, Weston Super Mare and he said Bradford as places where spikes have been identified.

    Did he mean to say Bradford? Now we hear Bradford is on a possible watch list, the map shared yesterday.

    I'm not sure about the rest of you but there is definitely an issue that is being kept quiet.

    The demographic of the slip of the tongue centre of Keighley is similar to that of Bradford and Leicester.

    This appears to be an expansion on yesterdays map.
    Leicester was said to be 3x the nearest but that now appears to be 2x with Bradford second on the list.

    Yeah, the reason i said interesting and included those areas is the pubs etc are due to open on 4 july and folk can bugger off to visit others and stay over.
    This weekend is going to be "busy".
    Dropped my eldest lad off to work today and driving through Keighley, why there is a big weatherspoons pub.
    Cant see Tim keeping his pubs shut before they have even opened up, can you?

    I've just been told that apparently the council had a meeting today and is preparing Bradford for lock down again.

    If they have postcode data, maybe they could share it with us so we can tackle the cause of the problem, not lock the entire council area down.
    Why should school in areas where there is low rates close because 4 miles across the City there is an actual requirement to do so.

    20 people queueing for the testing centre outside City Hall at 1pm (opened at 2pm).
    Evidently you can get a test if you have symptoms, about 2 had masks on!
    Good old Bradford.

    The government haven't told people to wear masks only on public transport. Another mistake by the government.

    Really..Leicester was 3 times ahead of any other place on Monday said Hancock. Now could be twice.. It's no where need the levels of Leicester.

    Why should someone say in Queensbury or Bingley have to go in lockdown if it's Bradford centre for example that has more cases? Just think the it will kill businesses off unless the government has true data. Can't just say Bradford needs to go in lockdow making all businesses and people suffer.

    I'm just passing on what I heard, but it does sort of tie up with the testing centre that's gone up in Centenary Square.

    Problem is the data is wrong. The Data on the Leicester situation has only just become public. The data the government have been feeding us shows an improving picture but when you see the pillar2 on top it is clear that infections have been on the rise since May.
    If this data reflects in other areas then the government have done as many suspected, and unlocked prematurely.
    Even more worrying is Johnson’s barefaced lies about this data being shared. Rotherham and Burnham have both gone on record saying they can’t get the pillar 2 for their areas, and the Mayor of Leicester’s account flatly contradicts Johnson’s response in the house. Remember when misleading the house was a serious offence? No longer the case.

    Hope Bradford Council are really digging in to the data. Having a testing centre at Centenary Square means nothing but I like the idea of it.

    I understand the data is a week old and the updated data will be availible tomorrow. See if Bradford goes up or down from 69.4.

    If it goes up I get a feeling lockdown will be extended.
