    If you ever wanted the question the accuracy of a story then consider this one. Brackley’s local general hospital is 11 miles away in Banbury. Northampton General Hospital is approx 23 miles away, with John Radcliffe 23.5 miles. If there was a surge of admissions then they wouldn’t be going to...

    Using absolute values without context is meaningless - populations size and proportion fully vaccinated should be considered. For context - in SA where this variant supposedly originated they have only 26% fully vaccinated from a population of 60m we have 70% of a 68m population.

    Although I didn’t think it would actually happen anyway, but not addressing one of the prime drivers of infection rates in a population that is likely to be less vaccinated (kids) makes the other restrictions a little pointless.

    It says sick - not isolating. It could be a combination of the two to be fair.

    This was in Northampton. As well as not being able to send an ambulance for that long the police had to take him to Kettering which is about another 12 miles away.

    But it won’t be the unvaccinated that die because they can’t get an ambulance after a car accident or a collapse at home. 3 weeks ago at our Vets football match a player collapsed at the side of the pitch - the ambulance said they couldn’t come for 2 hours. The only reason he survived was...

    It’s not terrible for Starmer really, but it should give him food for thought as to future strategy in seats like this. The people making the ‘only Labour can win here’ posters need to do one though.

    The interesting thing will be at the next GE, assuming Johnson is gone. Will the Tories be able to entice voters back with a promise of a new regime, will the alliance here hold with an increased turnout.

    I’m well aware - however there are better strikers that played in the top flight over the years prior to the creation of the PL hence the differentiation.

    Totally unacceptable

    For the top ones - players/coaches should be banned permanently IMO… only way it becomes a proper deterrent.
