Cheshire Cat
The most curious thing..
There was a quote on the Guardian or BBC news sites that said as soon as the scientists on SAGE see a fairly small nut, their immediate reaction is to pull out the biggest sledgehammer they can find.

And yet here we are going into Tier 2. Absolute joke imo.

Absolutely. It's the little things that are really taking their toll. Having a young child and partner not having baby groups to go to, for example. Not being able to meet others inside (apart from work ffs), which is again especially shit for people with young children at this time of year. The amount of people's mental health and livelihoods are being seriously effected is seriously frustrating when pubs, for example, have spent thousands to ensure their premises is safe as possible to visit.
I fully expected us to go back to Tier 1 based on cases here, so was royally pissed off when basically everywhere was announced as at least Tier 2. It just doesn't make sense and is so unnecessary imo.

You mean Professor Gloom and Dr Doom or was it Professor Doom and Dr Gloom
Only Denmark and ultra low population density Finland and Norway now have modest CV19 metrics.
Countries that had it light the first time such as Germany, Poland and Czech Republic are suffering.
In a high population Western democracy, where people are fiercely independent, it seems impossible to prevent waves of CV19 and varied restrictions.

Trouble is half of London & Surrey would come to Brighton for a beer or two would be mayhem.
Instead we now all have to head for the isle of wight
Expect Wightlink ferry costs to double overnight - being serious.

Speaking as an analyst for the leisure sector I can tell you that over generalistic nonsense comments like that really don't help to understand this.
Stick to the Daily Mail.
Every case I know of has come from school.
Duke of Wellington. It's changed a lot in the 34 years I've been going there, but still the best pub in town for me.

My youngest and her fiancé went to Toulouse to see friends a month ago and took it that they had to self isolate for 14 days.....after they had done that the cats became ill and they took them by Uber, they live in the flats on Wembley way, to the VETS...received a track and trace that one of the Uber or vet had tested positive, so they are now back in 14 days quarantine!
So 28 days of 2 months will be locked in their flat!
Really stark exemplar on TV last night. This guy saying that it is all fake news and it’s a mild flu and people dying should be dead anyway as they would have died anyway ( I love channel 5) ...anyway this professor came on and showed a graphic of a jumbo jet crashing, killing everyone on board.....that, he said is what is happening every day in the UK ...the amount of people on that plane dying every single day ..... also sobering to think that currently everyone who attends the albions first game ( 2000) people represents currently 4 days of deaths from COVID

Websites state only 1passenger allowed per vehicle,concessions if travelling with children.
Thinking on your reply, I have to agree. While I think Johnson has been individually awful throughout, we are dealing with a pandemic and it’s going to wreak havoc whatever the response.
So yes, I take your point.
Well. This is the bit I don’t get though.
Why are people happily jetting around Europe during a worldwide pandemic? Was it really essential for them to leave the country?
