    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Yeah, loads of guesswork around this. Is natural immunity from previous wave (of maybe a closer variant) better than more vaccine immunity that we’ve got as a country ?! As we keep saying, only time will tell. I think we are underestimating how much natural immunity we have in the country in...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I agree. It just feels/looks a bit weird at the football. Think they should be venting their anger at their team and manager after recent performances. Arsenal could’ve had a shedload yesterday

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Ive just reread the article and while it mentions that Northamptonshire was one of the first areas where there was a spike/spread in omicron it’s not clear when this started so agree it’s probably a bit early but fingers crossed

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Could be very good news. Let’s just hope this is repeated across the country. My main concern about the article is that it mentions Northampton has above average vaccination/booster rates which may well have contributed to reduced hospitalisations. Will some of the major cities with poor...

    That’s what I’m saying though. Why jump ship because of it ? Doesnt make sense

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Either way he’s attached to it as he negotiated it, so jumping ship doesn’t make a blind bit of difference. If anything you’d want to minimise negative impacts from current negotiations and not allow someone new to come in and blame you for the mess. Will probably become clear in coming weeks...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I’ve not heard too much from Wes streeting before but caught some of him on LBC and thought he came across pretty well. As did Tobias Elwood shortly after. Whether they’re decent or not it’s hard to tell but always slightly reassuring when you can hear at least some sensible, logical and not...

    Agreed. Silverwood and Root just don’t trust our spinners 🤷‍♂️. This pitch would’ve maybe helped Leach or Bess restore some of their confidence at this level. Shame rashid isnt fit enough to play test cricket.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    I think it means you need two weeks after jab for vaccine to fully kick in It’s saying you are more likely to catch Omicron than delta even with booster/vaccination. The benefit of booster appears not to stop transmission/contagion but to keep immunity levels to the point that you’re extremely...

    Had personal experience of this, assuming symptoms don’t kick in now. Tested positive after getting pinged on Tuesday and testing Wednesday morning but still no symptoms...hopefully it’s stays that way ! Anecdotal but also heard of other people with similar/same situation Edit - as I mentioned...

    Parker v chisora

    Parker couldn’t miss with that uppercut. Entertaining fight but worried if Chisora continues much longer he’s taking so many clean shots. Unbelievable how he kept coming back

    Parker v chisora

    Yeah, should be entertaining. Not sure how much Chisoras got left at the higher levels but he’s always game

    My beautiful wife RIP,

    Ive got no advice on grief other than deal with it in your own way. Life is just very cruel sometimes but remember all the good times together, they can never be taken away. My condolences to you and your son. Stay strong for one another

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    As I mention above there is a sensible discussion to be had around length of self isolation though to minimise periods where a person is isolating but isn’t contagious. There is also a theory that if you are able to safely reduce the period you’ll get a higher rate of compliance. It would need...

    Yeah, I’m not talking for good, especially for Pope. However he’s almost the most disappointing as by all accounts he’s a quality player at county level that everyone raves about but something not right at the moment. Flatters for device but plenty of time for him.Hoping he’s not another Hick ...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    There’s a lot of talk about reducing the 10 days isolation. I read somewhere that 98% of transmission would happen in first five days and this might be even less with Omicron. They should consider moving to second test after say 5 or 6 but not sure if PCRs are too sensitive so they might still...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Yeah, bizarrely and not sure how but he managed to successfully distance himself from previous governments and suggested reversing decisions and actions those governments took. He won’t be able to do it again...but a new leader might try !
