Latest UK Corona lockdown Summary Started by: Halitosis on Nov 26, '20 19:33

Let's cut through the bollocks Boris.  This is what we understand the latest tier system to mean:

Tier 1: Pints

Tier 2: Pints with chips

Tier 3: No pints

You forgot the “how we divide up the tiers” challenge.

Boris: “Where’s that middle earth place?”
Advisor: “do you mean the midlands?”
Boris: “yes, there and up to the crankies is tier 3”
Advisor: “well that will mean our mates in Cheshire can’t go hunting...”
Boris: “ah yeah, okay give them tier 2.... in fact fuck it, give everyone else tier 2”
Advisor: “well, erm, shouldn’t we give somewhere tier 1, give the minions hope?”
Boris: “ffs... okay, any islands of our island... there and that Cornwall place, they’re all old a fun at down there anyway...”

When they tell you 99% of the country will be tier 2 or 3, and Wales, Scotland and N.Ireland will work a different way, it does make you wonder.  Especially on cross border travel between them

London currently has a higher R number and a greater growth rate than most of the places in the North of England. It’s the old age scenario of different rules for the North, than that of the South and it stinks. Yes I know they used other data and information to determine the tiers before people bang on about that. However, they’ve fucked up most data they’ve collected and tried to interpret already, so no idea how anyone thinks they’ve done this fairly or right.

Declaring foreign countries subject to quarantine if people return from them: 

UK:

- comes into effect at 4am Saturday morning, having been declared on the thursday, at best, which totally screws everyone because people travel at the weekend and so have to rebuy tickets at the last minute at inflated prices ...

- basically all foreign countries are subject to quarantine

 

Switzerland:

- declared on the thursday or friday and comes into effect at 4am on the monday, allowing people returning at the weekend to use their existing bookings, and the potential leavers to cancel their arrangements.  

- only foreign countries or regions which have a higher infection rate than Switzerland

 

Basically the UK response is just completely incompetent

This:

Advisor: “well that will mean our mates in Cheshire can’t go hunting...”

Fucking lol :)

Also,

Advisor: "But that inbred Burnham fucker tried to go against us"

Boris: "Send in the hounds! Tier 3!"

Have you seen Matt Lucas impersonating Boris Johnson? Absolutely brilliant. 

"Go outside, but don't go outside. Unless you need to work, but work from home if you can, and if it's a Tuesday..."

Well rest in peace Halitosis, I have a feeling you would have become a GodFather on that Character if things were different, was a good run, and I did not see it coming!

It would be a lot easier if all of the uk was following the same rules. I live in tier one Scotland, however my work is in tier 3 England. That said I notice more people are taking it stringently in the tier 1 rather than tier 3.

Thinking of ordering a perfect draft beer pump. 10 pint kegs....Stella on draft plus aloud of other beers. Fuck the lockdown i'll have a pub in my gaff.

It's all a bit of a joke really, everything new that comes out is all guess work.

 

I don't k ow how lockdown tiers in areas is going to work.

 

Let's say for example I am from one location and the lockdown tier 3 is here but I work somewhere else should I travel there? And vice versa it's just going to be a shambles 

Report Post Tip
Looks like things went mad again over the weekend large crowds and people attending big parties. As soon as people get a bit of freedom it always goes wrong or is this just the media trying to portray in a certain manor?

Well near me the health auth is now passing out tickets to church going people.
They had a drive in meeting where no one even got out of their cars.
And the health auth gave the pastor a $1250 fine and the church a $5000 dollar fine.

Some government people have no clue how to follow the rules they made themselves.
Social distance then the mask.
Everyone gets stuck at just the mask.

I just love how the rest of the world is still discussing all of the lockdown stuff, and attempting it...

And then Americans are over here like, "IT'S NOT REAL, OUR GOVERNMENT ONLY WANT'S TO SHUT US DOWN! THIS VIRUS IS A HOAX! IT'LL BE OVER AFTER THE ELECTION!"

And I'm just over here eating my popcorn because I'm watching and hearing about all of my friends in other countries deal with the same shit and realizing that people are so stupid. I've spoken to people who legitimately believe the entire world pandemic, is just an American hoax to shut only our country down and it's entirely political. -_-

All seems fine-ish here in Scotland.  I know what I can and can't do, just had a wedding.  we knew the limitations and expectations and it went without a hitch.  It's these bozos that absolutely MUST get rat arsed who bring it all down.

Being an anti-social mofo helps though.

China started this corona, ruined the planet  we live in  for all, safety but it's getting largely,for all country's this has affected this planet , china needs to fund all this..

I am very thankful that the area I live is one of the few in the country to have been given tier 1 status, hopefully come the 16th when the review is due we remain in tier 1, the cases have steadily declined so fingers crossed

Report Post Tip

Where I live is currently Tier 3.  I bet we will be Tier 3 throughout the whole of December and into the new year.  I cant even remember what its like to go eat out with the family or meet up with friends...

Report Post Tip

Tier 2 is substantial meal with alcohol drinks. Just chips don't count here in the North West :(

Report Post Tip

Does chips cheese and gravy count? LOL

 

Currently where I am we are tier 2 but my sons school emailed us and closed as 21 members of staff have had to go into self isolation so waiting for a tier 3 soon I guess. We have had one of the smallest infection rates so far but steadily on the climb.
