So they’re screwing us over by 3 fucking days. Thanks a fucking bunch Boris, at least you got your own blatantly unrestricted wedding on the sly

Covid: Lockdown easing in England to be delayed by four weeks

Most current Covid rules will remain for four more weeks after 21 June, government sources say.

Mate

I'm starting to lose patience

Especially when you see the G7 leaders sharing wives and licking eachothers faces enjoying a good old jolly .

Let's take bets now

A double delta turbo RX variant will come about and we keep this bollocks going into autumn and then ofcourse autumn will see more cases start to happen and the old "learn to live with it " never really happens at all in 2021

22,500 can go to Wembley
Thousands can go to Test matches for 5 days
Boris can have a mega BBQ on the beach with no distancing

But I can’t have 40 vaccinated people at a wedding

And when they are out of people to vaccinate , i fully expect pets to start being blamed .

And we won't come out until all gerbils, dogs , cats and lizards have been vaccinated .

Meanwhile in INDIA itself where the variant came from and caused huge problems in an unvaccinated country .

Now at 20,000 new cases a day
From a population of over a billion

Sharp rise and sharp fall over a month and a half

What are we expecting to happen here in a heavily vaccinated population of less than 70 million

They're starting to pull our plonkers

India also seen a seriously sharp fall in cases despite only 3.5% of the population being fully vaccinated and many of its people living in less space than us here in the UK , unless you live in Manor farm

What's happened there then ?

A few papers (most notably the FT) are suggesting they may relax wedding numbers later

What I don't understand is all the restriction inconsistencies. I was at a cremation in Rugby on Friday & 40 people were allowed to go to the service and another 20 to the wake afterwards at a pub. Nobody had to show proof of vaccine/negative test and we weren't all part of a mega bubble as not all of us live in Rugby. Why the different rules for a funeral and a wedding?

I guess they would say the behaviour is likely to be different which could affect transmission. But Scotland has been allowing 50 at weddings this whole time so I really do not see why we are being put on parity with nightclubs as the absolute last to reopen.

The missus has given me a heads up she will probably be a mess this evening. Was pretty much the main thing keeping her going through lockdown and if Boris takes it away it’ll be a bridge too far

Like I said, it will be 2 weeks. Then more, then more.

Then there will be something else, then something more.

Excellent, I can get my second dose of vaccine without being put at needless risk. Excellent!

That has helped my mental health immensely... unlike a load of you lot!

Hopefully I do understand what Nick is saying. Very very few deaths even with the large uptick in infections is a massive positive

Seems half of you lot want to hug me and breathe in my face before I've had two vaccines.

Anyway, I'm not going to let myself get ill (again) because of stupid morons who decide they know better than the medics and the science and, more importantly, don't accept there are many issues all over the place. This ain't about me, ain't about you - it's about society. I'll leave you with this, and you can go swivel if you disagree.

Can't we just agree on the following?!?

If the medical advice, unfiltered, from Whitty and co. is that masks, distancing, and whatever measures are no longer needed come June 21st then we go with it, because they are the experts with ability to interpret, and also have more access to data than the rest of us. This is with the proviso and understanding that there will be outliers who are not safe yet, and others where psychologically, the challenge will be to assimilate.

This is with the proviso and understanding that there will be outliers who suffer medically because of that, and others where psychologically, the challenge will be to continue.

Just what is wrong with that?!?

You don't have to go out though so how is it putting you at risk?

This is the issue, people are "stupid morons" because they want to get on with their lives?
