Yes, I dislike booing of all the other countries national anthems. No need and disrespectful. I also would go as far as to say it's a cringe moment when it happens. As a balance tho', I've nothing against chants that are within the normal British sense of humour that are to be jokingly...
At the height of it all, I think (but stand to be corrected) that not all of the elderly were not being taken into hospital and were essentially in a "DNR" situation where they were "made comfortable" where they were. One thing I am sure of is that choices and decisions had to be made. Some will...
I can only tip my hat to you. Genius question and a bloody good stab at a reply.. well it's got me fooled that you know all about it Something tells me tho' that you have a very smart daughter who is way ahead of me !
On the care homes issue. I have a memory of when it happened and I thought it was odd. But then I also remember wondering what else can they could they do because they needed the beds for covid and it was almost a hobsons choice situation. However DC pointed the finger at Hancock by saying that...
I didn't really care but I remember there was a bit of bad blood between Brighton/Chelsea in the 80's and 90's so I thought it had to be City I would prefer as a Brighton fan. As an aside, have you seen the scenes in Croydon celebrating Chelsea's win. Palace fans will be pleased that their first...
This is something I like most about the Bloom era. The way he has used the Albion's regional status to build a first class football / sporting academy that is turning out professional footballers at all levels.If only Sussex CCC would link up and do something similar then we might have a half...
Trevor Phillips on Sunday is currently / just finished discussing the lack of disaster plans drawn up by the civil service which was revealed by the DC evidence. Exactly what you have turned your face from believing was in his evidence (for reasons I still find odd. I'm not even saying it's...
What do I think the disaster plan should look like? Why do you think I should have any view on that whatsoever? No nobody has proven anything to anyone by posting links of newspaper articles and the like. I watched it and DC clearly alleged that when the disaster plan was asked for, there wasn't...
No mate. Firstly its not my argument. Alll I have tried to say is thatDC evidence was that when the disaster plan was asked for, the civil service didnt have one. A disaster plan is something that is (well should be) in place permanently and updated regularly. DC accusation is that they didnt...
Yes thanks for posting. I have a policy of not clicking on links and I dont post them. The plan that was ditched was the disaster plan that every corporate has but the civil service had failed to deliver.
There was also evidence about Cummings sharing with a Cambridge expert (I think it was...
Im not a posting links person but expect if you google the evidence given by Cummings then you will find it. I watched / listened to it all day live when working at home. And I watched this bit. It was clear the PM was expecting to see the disaster recovery plan but when asked for it there wasnt...
I called for the civil service to take responsibility for not doing what they were asked to do. They were asked to produce a disaster plan (in the same way that every large corporate has one that is reviewed regularly). They didnt do it. Beyond belief.
I was commenting on the evidence given by Cummings. His evidence was that 1. The PM asked for the disaster plan 2. The head of the civil service was asked for it and 3. It was only at that point that the Civil Service realised that they didnt have one. That is what Cummings said. Shall we agree...
I wasnt no. It was the part of Cummings evidence where he explained that he was in a meeting with the PM. Then a "top official" (sorry I didnt make a note of her name) burst into the meeting in a state of distress and said "We are fkd, the disaster plan, well its not been done, we dont have one...
That maybe so (tho thats not my experience where its been taken seriously ever since Ive been in the workplace). But you know what.. the one's you worked actually had a drafted plan, they just may have not have updated it. the boss of the civil service didnt even know if they had one, never mind...
I agree in trying to have some intervention for equality of opportunity. But there is again a lack of understanding of what socialism is. This belief that socialism is kind, cuddly, friendly is born out of the fact that people in the UK have never been under its jackboot. I have a good friend...
It is not convenient at all. Whether it is reasonable for a PM to assume the civil service had in place a disaster plan because they had been asked to do it is something I've not fully formed a view on. That could go either way. I lean towards the PM should when elected have checked with the...
