    Extended by a week as most probably know now for local lockdown.
    Makes no sense and clearly isn’t even working

    You can't help stupid.
    However hitting everyone with the same restrictions is also counter productive as tbh, I don't give a toss anymore. Why shouldn't I see my family as there are no cases where I live and no cases where they live and I bet many more are starting to feel the same when the see the same pattern on the postcode map week after week after week.

    I think everyone in Bradford knows it isn't working. Better pray that there isnt a further increase because they'll probably start shutting things and forcing everyones hand.

    Then there will be a proper meltdown!

    Looks like Dido Harding will be heading up the Goverments new Institute for Fcking Clueless Incompetence.
    Is there no end for rewarding failure?

    It’s definitely just a massive coincidence that she’s married to a sitting MP.

    In her position as member of the Jockey Club, she was also instrumental in allowing the Cheltenham festival to go ahead which created the Covid 19 spike around Cheltenham. That sounds like a good reason for her to be appointed to head up the new public health organisation!

    Rainy day here.
    Kids have set up a nightclub in their bedroom. Eldest is on the door with a bottle of hand sanitizer, the youngest is inside with a piece of paper asking for names and telephone numbers (presumably for contact tracing purposes:joy:).
    They are pissing themselves laughing.
    :mask: - strange kids.

    Its clear that people, at least in certain areas, don't give a shit anymore. If they ever did. My usual gym in idle is shut again - in the brief week it was open, everyone was maintaining distance and as best I could see, people were diligent in wiping down equipment before and after use.

    The chain I use has a gym that's open in thornbury so I used it yesterday. No distancing whatsoever. Groups of 5 and 6 working out together, lots of hugs, handshakes and backslaps, equipment littered everywhere, no one cleaning their stuff down.

    Do you think it's a case of people not giving a shit or people realising it's far less serious than is being made out?

    Did you know that the NHS has around 150,000 hospital beds. Care to guess how many of them are currently being taken up by patients with COVID?
