Exactly. Advisors. Not experts. People who are there for political reasons, not the science.

Is a lot of people everyone, like you stated? No, it isn't. And is sending confirmed cases into closed environments of very vulnerable people shielding them? No, it isn't.

I wouldn't call it 'popular', as in people actively want to do it. It's more a begrudging acceptance that it's what's needed. Like me having fruit and veg everyday doesn't mean I like or enjoy it - I'd love to be able to eat junk all the time - but I accept it's far better for me if I do...

No. He argued for herd immunity against the scientific experts. Experts would've locked down sooner and probably harder and if they had it wouldn't have got as bad as it did and we'd have been able to open up more quickly. With no guarantee of immunity to reinfection, no vaccine forthcoming and...

The way infections are going to still be calling for this is nonsensical, no matter how much we'd all like to be back. If anything we should be looking at another temporary lockdown (or arguably have already begun it in hindsight)

For a person that harps on about WWII, Blitz spirit etc Johnson seems totally unaware of things like rationing. Does he think people were calling for that, or that is was popular? Of course it wasn't, but it was necessary. And people grudgingly accepted it because they knew it had to happen for...

The reason the economy to them is based around the wealthy is because of the metric used to assess 'success'. As long as the overall mean average growth improves then the economy has improved and getting a handful of billionnaires significant increases in wealth is far easier to achieve than...

We previously shielded everyone and that didn't work. That was your original quote. Maybe I'm mad but when we talk about everyone I assume that to include the people in care homes. Besides which we had the lockdown and the number of cases, deaths etc fell. We've opened stuff up and their...

As is the standard of us and Arsenal. It's all relative. People we're raving over here wouldn't even get a mention at other clubs like that.

Did we? Last time I checked sending positive cases into a largely closed environment of the most vulnerable people isn't shielding

Is it that they're too good for this level or that this is currently their level and the league is actually inferior to what it should be because so many young players are hoarded in big clubs development set-ups? One day they might be too good for this level, but right now this may well be...

OK, given the huge number of academy lads and U23's teams like Arsenal take on even getting into a squad of that nature is an achievement but lets be honest, that competition is the equivalent of the EFL cup or checkatrade for us. Nice to do well but frankly not high on the list of priorities...

Statistically you're more likely to be killed by an asteroid, because although the chances of it happening are very low the death count if it does will be billions. Also you can't catch cancer from being close to other people. There's plenty of things we could do to reduce cancer cases in terms...

But if he planted them for a laugh who's to say he didn't plant the Ten Commandments for the same reason?

Not necessarily. It could be considered poor performance and thus could be sanctioned. I think it should be allied to wage increases as well.

I think VAR wasn't used at this stage last time either, just in those last few games.

Whereas most people that can WFH are probably rubbing it out!

No it isn't ;)

I was doing my best to be civil. Compared to some others who have just resorted to calling people a brain dead c*** I felt it was reasonably restrained. I was trying to politely point out on the other thread why the likelihood of why that contractor was chosen over others with the argument of...

Well, they could just become special holidays a couple of times a year. Surely you'd still enjoy seeing the team play and visiting new establishments like Das Titz or El Boobies?
