Mikhail Liebenstein Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 For once the Mail comments are worth a read: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9798675/Sajid-Javid-tests-positive-Covid-amid-fears-No-10-pingdemic.html Boris' joining a "little known" trial to avoid self isolation, doesn't wash with public.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 This issue isn't the pinging - it's the spread of the virus... but in braindead Britain the issue becomes the former and not the latter. I despair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in my defence, it wasn't clear on the government websites, at least to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coypondboy Posted July 18, 2021 Author Share Posted July 18, 2021 good explanation of what is happening in the mail. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9797597/Covid-19-UK-pingdemic-cripple-Britain-without-action.html Did not realise you only legally have to self isolate if contacted by test and trace so many will be taking a sickie next week and enjoying the hot weather if pinged.

Social Justice League Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 The whole thing is a total joke. Was watching the GP at Silverstone this afternoon and we had 120k people with no masks and no social distancing. Then I caught the end of the Open in Sandwich and it was the same scene. Meanwhile the idiotic cabinet are going on about bloody pings and self isolating. Countries gone nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the government have almost tried to make people think it’s mandatory to self isolate after a “ping” whilst recognising it would be a silly law if that were the case as everyone would just uninstall it.

I think in the Hancock era and also with the policing they tried to intimate things were illegal, that were not illegal. Hence the confusion.

Government know what they are doing, this is just the safety valve before the next lockdown, if things get bad enough most people will comply again in the winter if they have had a bit of summer "freedom". The dream would be a mutation that doesn`t kill people but disrupts the economy enough to bring down a few banks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
