    I think the aim of it is to make people work at least 55% of the time in reality, they have just misrepresented it for a headline. The reality is that the government is really willing to pay a subsidy of 22% subject to an employer paying 55%. Shite.

    They make soundbite statements like that because Tory voters are mostly content free. See for example "more tests = more infections"

    It sounds an overly complex scheme that will end up impacting the poorest the most, do virtually nothing to protect employment and lead to widespread destitution.

    Yeah I've been a few of those defeats, they've tended to coincide with the game being midweek funnily enough! Went for one of Mowbray's first games which was shit as was the following season, really depressing performances both times.

    Aye, that's why the app isn't the only solution. Traditional T&T + an app. Same with any other health tech.

    Wasps downward spiral...

    Just like covid presents the UK government with a veil under which to hide economic problems independent of covid, the case is the same for Wasps. There might be some movement very soon to split the club from the stadium / group structure, possibly off the back of a bond default?

    That's a bit of a myth, we've not won a league game at Oakwell for years. We were one of the not many teams to lose there in the Premier League too. In fact, we've drew 1 and lost 4 of our last 5 league games there.

    I don't really think pertaining risk profiles to individual postcodes in densely population cities makes all that much sense. I'd suggest it should have two levels, Coventry is a high risk place due to having some high risk areas. CV3 is a medium risk in itself but people must exercise caution...

    They were already losing nearly £1m per month anyway. Hope any government bailout isn't just used to pay off bondholders

    But really H playing 'well' yet losing heavily really is a bad sign. As confidence diminishes so will performances. If they're being beaten without scoring playing well than God knows what they'll be like in a downturn in confidence.

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

    No, it's going worse than I could ever have imagined. I had my misgivings back in 2016 which are in this thread.

    It shifts liability from the manufacturer if anything goes wrong. I think liability potentially shifts to the MHRA but not sure completely.
