TopCat Posted December 20, 2020 Report Share Posted December 20, 2020 Essentially, we’re asking poor people to sacrifice their income and years off their lives to help old people, who are already older than they’ll live to, live a few months longer. And all for the virtue of the middle class left Posts like this send a chill down my spine. Terrifying how common this view has become.‘They’re old and they’ll die soon anyway’f**king hell.

Indeed. A proper strategy, with rules actually being enforced.

And all for the virtue of the middle class left I think you make some good points - the impact of restrictions disproportionately affects the working class, and their targetting of the vaccine is very strange, giving it to 90 year olds first and asking those with underlying health conditions or are a bit younger to wait, despite the benefits of the vaccine for those groups being much greater. However, can you please stop blaming the "middle class left"? At WM we have one of the most right wing governments in history. In Scotland, we have nationalists in charge who are shedding any pretence of being "left" by the day. Its an entirely false narrative.

I really do feel for a business that had really tried and spent big money to be able to operate only to be closed every few weeks, it's not them that's the problem its sheer stupidity of people knowingly putting themselves at risk going into crowded areas. Just seen the chaos of London rail stations now on bbc news and perfect example if this. Living in an already tier 3 area all crowded together and going to disperse all over country taking their covid loves with them. Fabulous 🤬🤬🤬🤬 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shull Posted December 20, 2020 Report Share Posted December 20, 2020 New World Order slowly and surely taking over. With a little help from Fascists like Boris Johnson, Sturgeon, Leitch and many many more throughout the World. A terrified and compliant population will hurry it along.

antrin Posted December 20, 2020 Report Share Posted December 20, 2020 (edited) Doubtless London and Londoners will get spurious blame... ...but you have to realise that all those leaving London, coughing and spluttering, packing the motorways, train stations and coach stations are economic migrants. Poor people who just use London when it suits them and sneak to what they call “back home” and to their Mammies, as soon as things get a wee bit tough. it is NOT Londoners who’ll be doing any Super-spreading.

Many people will feel "why the feck have I bothered" and will join the existing lunatics by mixing in houses more than they should. Numbers were going to rise over the Christmas period but this over reaction will tip many people over the edge. The scenes you seen in London were replicated all over the UK, let's not be putting the blame on them nasty Londoners, people will have, and will be, traveling over the next few days irrespective of the rules. they will find a way.

We're currently tier 2, and have been showing no signs of the virus growing. Aye, as I said earlier, this will have a massive negative effect on people who have been playing he game.
