We should find out tonight in Johnson's announcement.

I know, I was querying the ‘Johnson’s announcement’ comment

Sorry, a colleague misinformed me, it's Javid not Johnson.

He's probably up in Shropshire North galvanising his ground troops.

Oh you mean "If Labour was in power we'd do everything the Tories have done, only faster and harder. The Tories are not being authoritarian enough. We need to be fining and imprisoning the unvaccinated (even if it is a tiny %)"

I think that's what he'd say.

Oh and "none of us broke any COVID rules ever...at all. Only Tories do that."

Re: Coronavirus
 

I only wish Johnson's loyalty to you was half as strong as your loyalty is to him. He's thrown us all under the bus with one set of rules for him and his chums and another for the rest of us.

It's all the same party now that starmer votes for every thing Boris puts forward.

They can't roll out the booster faster when people can't get them.


I'm already booked in, but it's not for a couple of weeks, and perhaps want it sooner. I don't really want to cancel the appointment I have and risk having to wait even longer.



The NHS site hasn't been updated yet. There are 3 walk in sites in Notts presently, 2 are in Mansfield, which I haven't looked at, and 1 is in Nottm and says it's not doing boosters. At present that says it closes some days at 3.30, which isn't really sensible for anyone who has a full time job. A city of this size needs about 5-6 walk in centres open something like 7am-10pm independently of those with booked in appointments. It would be good to see this capacity increased but this presumably needs sites and staff to do it.

Hoyle is teed off with ABdPJ for announcing on TV ahead of Parliament again...

Re: Coronavirus
 

I'm not loyal to anyone. My criticism of the government's handling of COVID, I thought, has been pretty clear.

My point in that post and in other previous posts is that when it comes to COVID we are in a one party state as Starmer offers nothing, other than to reinforce Tory decision making. In fact it is Starmers loyalty to Johnson you should be questioning.

I booked today, and could have got it tomorrow if I wanted. Booked in for Friday.

Re: Coronavirus
 

Javid is coming across absolutely clueless here.


Has he tried to do this today?



I understand they're trying to increase capacity, but isn't that just holding back the demand?

I'd rather have it this week than next. As it stands i'd be boosted this year...

The guy sat behind Javid is screwing around on his phone, still a fair few aren't wearing masks...

BREAKING: Prime Minister Boris Johnson loses his working majority as 79 Tory MPs have declared they’re rebelling by voting against Covid Passports tomorrow.

Re: Coronavirus
 

Great, as I have said before, the Tory Party is the party of Government and also the party of Opposition.

Labour will vote with the government to get this through.

It's ridiculous and a total Labour own goal. They have a chance to win a vote in Parliament against Johnson and instead they'll side with him.

Re: Coronavirus
 

I’m confused, I thought the point of opposition was to hold the government accountable BUT to vote with them if they agreed. not just wholly disagree with the elected government on every issue ?
