Perhaps for you, I found the attraction of this place to be the absence of certain posters and the relative lack of culture wars stuff.Northern Lights wrote: ↑Wed Dec 23, 2020 9:18 amThe attraction of this place was not having overzealous mods pulling the trigger just because they can or don’t like a poster.Zapp Bannigan wrote: ↑Tue Dec 22, 2020 11:22 pmIt's not a Permaban.

Well done on utterly failing, hand in your mod keys you clearly don’t have the stomach for it.

Bimbo's MP spouting delusional bollocks again
Priti Patel has claimed the government has been “consistently... ahead of the curve” in its response to the coronavirus pandemic, despite one of the highest death tolls in the world and Saturday’s last-minute decision to effectively cancel Christmas for large swathes of the country.
Pressed on the apparent last-minute nature of the tier 4 announcement, Patel said: “Well there was nothing last minute in terms of the work undertaken by government in terms of planning and preparing for tier 4.
“These are big decisions that are taken collectively by the government based on scientific advice.”
Patel’s assertion that the government has been “ahead of the curve” in its response to the coronavirus pandemic is questionable given the UK’s huge death toll and multiple botched policies and 18 significant U-turns.
Small talk with Bimbo must be exhausting.tabascoboy wrote: ↑Wed Dec 23, 2020 9:30 am Is bimbollox banned from PR too? Haven't seen any posts from him there for a while so maybe that's why he's been overactive here lately. Would be fine if it was reasoned counter-arguments instead of reflex strawman every 2 minutes.
"Bit nippy today, eh?"
"It isn't literally freezing, you dolt."
Exactly. People saying he provides a counter point of view is a little odd. He's a flat out contrarian who gets in the way of reasoned debate. All the same, I am somewhat concerned at his banning. Perhaps he could be limited to half an hour per day for awhile, in the hope that he would make his words count.tabascoboy wrote: ↑Wed Dec 23, 2020 9:30 am Is bimbollox banned from PR too?

Well done France !
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-55423257Hundreds of immigrants in France working on the coronavirus frontline have had their service to the country recognised with fast-track citizenship.
The interior ministry invited residents helping with efforts against Covid-19 to apply for accelerated naturalisation.
More than 700 have already been granted citizenship or are in the final stages of receiving it.
They include healthcare professionals, cleaners and shop workers.
Frontline workers around the world have been exposed to Covid-19 at a high rate with many dying from the disease including doctors and nurses.
..........and another new strain, originated in S Africa
Hancock says another new strain of Covid-19 has been detected in the UK which has originated from South Africa.
All travellers from South Africa in the past two weeks must isolate immediately due to the new variant which has been identified.
Update today:Sandstorm wrote: ↑Mon Dec 21, 2020 3:36 pm Here's how devious this virus is and how bloody confusing it is for everyone:
UK family of 4 with 2 kids: aged 14 and 11.
11 Dec - 14 year old loses sense of smell and starts coughing. No-one else has any symptoms.
Has Covid test on 15 Dec
Positive on 16th.
14 year old confined to his room to keep the others safe.
Still no symptoms for the other 3.
So according to the rules: whole family should isolate for 10 days if anyone has Covid....
So does their 10 day starts on 11 Dec and therefore 21 Dec is their "Ok, you can go back to Tesco" day.
So far, so good.
BUT yesterday morning their 11 year old starts showing symptoms so Dad, Mum and 11 year old go get tested and 11 year old is positive today!
Parents both still clear.
Weird....because kids were supposed to be less susceptible right?
So now their isolation clock resets and they have to stay home until 31 Dec. And if wife gets it, another 10 day lockdown starts!
Fun times.
NHS website says "Isolate for 10 days for each case in your household"
Track & Trace App: "Isolate for 10 days for each case in your household"
Track and Trace person calls up the family because both kids have had it: "No, you only have to isolate for the 1st 10 day period and because you've done 10 days from 14 year old's positive Covid test, you don't have to worry about the 2nd infection start date"
So the husband and wife get in their car and spend 1 hour in Wickes looking at tiles and bathroom taps.
No wonder we're in the shit!
So travel wherever you want then in England if everyoneis in the sameTier
I hope to get away on the 30thto the Lakes

Wonder what the "restrictions" on travel from SA will entail.
I'm due to import a further variant from Durban, Bluff20, on the 27th.
Symptoms aren't pretty.
