    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Same with offices. Way more people in than last time. There's an article on the BBC site about this today. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-55843506

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    This is from twitter so no guarantees to its accuracy but it seems this comes under Belgian law and they have a thing called inspanningsverplichting which says best efforts shall not constitute an obligation or guarantee commitment and there is no liability.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    That was going to be my question. Obviously I'm not a lawyer but I can't see where that says they can jump the queue ahead of those who ordered months before them.

    From a legal standpoint how would best effort but the EU at the head of the queue when demand worldwide far outstrips supply? You would assume everyone else who placed orders, in some cases many months before the EU did, didn't sign up to be pushed down the queue if the EU finally got round to...

    You would imagine if they did that then supplies from non-EU production that were intended for the EU won't be delivered and will be diverted elsewhere. Assume EU produced vaccine should be delivered around the world not just to the UK. That's a lot of countries that will be very unhappy with...

    Looks like hospital admissions is now starting to drop, behind the drop in new cases as would be expected. Lets hope the death figure starts to drop as well. Of course they're still all very high so a long way to go but at least its going in the right direction.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    I think I must be reading a different forum as I'm seeing people on here criticising the EU over their vaccine stance.

    Wasps downward spiral...

    I think the lease was on the basis of the hotel being built. Presumably if they don't build the hotel the lease stays with the council and they've found an alternative use for it. Would actually be a good move from the council if this is something that is realistically going to happen. There's...

    Article on town centre development

    For me the problem is so much was built at the same time, for obvious reasons, which results in a lot of buildings of the same age and style. Add in poor upkeep and its a recipe for disaster. That doesn't mean you need to knock everything down and start again, that's just repeating the same...

    Telegraph reporting today that there is going to be an airport for flying cars (I checked and its not April 1st) in Coventry. The location is the Ricoh car park, so guess that means the hotel isn't happening.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Or maybe not. From what I can make out they've ordered 600 million doses of the Pfizer, half of their total expected output and 400 million doses of the Astra among an order of 2.3 billion doses, for a population of 450 million. We've ordered 30 million of the Pfizer and 100 million of the...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Exactly, remember the discussion on the covid thread that if they turned out to be useless we'd wasted a fortune as we had commited to pay. Even if the EU did also commit in advance they did it months after other countries, I can't see any reason they should now be at the front of the queue.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    I understand they're annoyed if they throught they were getting doses and now aren't but surely the same applies to everyone around the world and other countries seem to be accepting it and waiting their turn. “We reject the logic of first come, first served” is a hell of a quote. Are they...
