No bouncers on club doors, get them on supermarket doors putting fear and pain into those who don't wear masks.

Fists in disposable gloves to be changed after each pummeling to maintain infection control standards.

A lot already are on stores doors as the licence most guards have is the doorman one as that enables you to work in multiple venues rather than the security badge that you can only work in retail or static security jobs.

This virus has certainly shone a light on whats wrong with the country,politicians looking for anyway to cash in,yhe attitude of "theyre old they will die anyway", the I have rights under the Magna Carta brigade,the sudden "what about mental health" when previously years and years of underfunding didnt matter,the "how am I supposed to survive on that" but not bothered that thousands upon thousands have died due to austerity,the cluelessness of the do called leaders of this country,we have been extremely lucky this wasnt a more virulant,deadly virus,we would be like a scene from Mad Max after 6 months

They backed the police in their interpretations and fining...

You know full well it's very bad practice for politicians to comment on specifics, although that does not normally deter Patel, effing up court cases.

Or the Attorney General.

It’s not just me who’s thinking that we are doing well with these numbers already then ?

Seem to be doing alright. At current rates we're looking at the end of spring/summer until the 8million + over 70s to get the jab. That's excluding key workers. Can only assume the rates will go up. Hope so anyway.

Did you see the coverage in Bristol earlier with Boris ?
Using the football ground I believe ?

And the GP sites will make a difference......

I didnt, no.

Yeah, they started at Ashton Gate today. Its perfect for mass vaxes. Massive car park, easy to get to, massive open area under one of the stands.

The Bath and West showground starts up in a week or two as well. You will know it either cos its where Zeppelin played at the Bath Festival, or cos its hosts some horse event every year.

And the GP sites will make a difference......

They will. I have said loads of times, for them, its a piece of cake, as long as they have the stuff. They do it every year. GP near me finished their top 2 tiers last week.

2.6 million vaccinations given.....how are your European countries doing....

Generally not allowing as much people to die from this virus, i know its only generally the older life, but you know its someone mum father granddad grandmother or friend etc.

But how are their vaccination programmes going....

 

[NilSatisOptimum]

But how are their vaccination programmes going....

And how is the virus dying going in Britain...

We should have never been compelled to act like this, willy waving over other countries because we have allowed so many people to die unnecessarily.

Proper disgusting if you ask me.

 

[peteblue]

And how is the virus dying going in Britain....

You seem to have changed your concern for life just to defend the EU. So I’ll ask again, how are the vaccine inoculations going in the Eu, if you don’t know just say so.....

 

[Jebus_lives]

Helpful reminder to everyone that vaccines are important but just saying 'we've vaccinated x number' while neglecting other public health measures is not a wise approach.

Ok.
I’ve now read the Morrison’s briefing to staff for the masks thing.

Superb I’ve got to say.
