He loves being a weasel

Perhaps @orly should rename the weasel index to the Peston index ?

Pardon

It's a joke we're keeping universities open. Moron students having mass parties and university campuses in general are responsible for a large percentage of infections and are (by far) best set up for remote working. People on the other side of the world routinely study 'at' British universities online. Bizarre to keep them open.

Meanwhile, businesses that have adapted to comply with covid-safe regs are told to shut again.

Pardon

Not you Bungle - another one

 

[GwladysBlue]

Remember this a couple of weeks ago?

GET THEM OUT

That makes a lot of sense but how do the tory donors make money if the halls are closed? Profit before health should be this government's slogan.

So they are going to lockdown on bonfire night that will go well.
They should have banned the sale of fireworks 2 weeks ago as selling them is going to encourage people to have house parties.

 

[GwladysBlue]

£12bn on a track and trade system that has fell flat on its arse than is now causing another national lockdown which will prove even more costly to the country.

They should be thrown in prison for the incompetence they have displayed during this pandemic.

Just checking have they announced any regulations preventing staff working in more than one care home or auxiliary hospital staff working in multiple environments?

If not, we’re pissing in the wind.

That’s common sense so of course that won’t be included in the details.

I see Boris thinks he's Axl Rose now

Do you reckon he'll come out to "Welcome To The Jungle" ?


edit

"Welcome to the Bungle"

Oh ffs, that's brilliant, and I wish I hadn't bothered with Jungle now

Apparently not, according to the Athletic

Can't link cos of paywall

Unlikely at the top level. They are tested every few days

Makes no sense to stop it either while no crowds. We need some entertainment in life while everything is shut.
