We would've been alright if the Mackems stopped coming in to Shields because "they want to go somewhere nice".
Should have barriers up.

Depends which ones, and how they are organised.

I'm not aware of any shops which can rival Burnside WMC for superspreading.

Unfortunately, all of the stupidity - coming out of lockdown 1 too early, allowing foreign travel, eat out to help out, idiots like Burnside WMC, people ignoring the rules, the way some non league football clubs have gone on in their clubhouses - has, predictably, come back to haunt us.

Yes it does depend on that, you're right, but every one I've been in has observed the rules meticulously. They are being shafted. The most recent stats I've seen concerning the traced source of transmissions indicates that pubs and restaurants aren't anywhere close to the top of the culprits list.

This rule of six in tier 3... what does it mean? Says certain areas like parks?

You can meet up with six, outside in parks n that.

I feel desperately sorry for good businesses in the hospitality sector and everyone that works in them, don't get me wrong. Unfortunately for businesses and people as a whole, they / we just end up having to make sacrifices to accommodate the bloody idiots and spivs out there.

You've been lucky if everywhere you've been have followed the rules meticulously. I've been in some brilliant restaurants / pubs that couldn't have done more, bless them, the way they have adapted was brilliant. There have been others I have been in who have been a disgrace, and only care about revenue.

If I've noticed anything, it's been that very local businesses - an individual restaurant or pub - have generally been far better than larger chains, some of which I've been in have been unbelievably bad. And the non league clubhouses I went to were as bad as anywhere. Maybe just the ones I've been to, of course.

I can see your point, everyone is at their limits with it and want it to be over and yes mass testing will keep us in tier 3 for longer. However, I think we will come out in better shape if we all get tested. I imagine a lot of the problem are the asymptomatic cases spreading the virus.

If everyone is mass tested the symptomless people on the whole will probably isolate, nobody will want to pass it to their loved ones at Christmas. Where as if they weren't tested they wouldn't know and would mingle and this would exacerbate the problem.

I wouldn't be against mass testing. Even as a small business owner losing money in tier 3, I would rather short term pain as opposed to hiding the problem by not getting tested. The vaccine could take a while yet.

You’ll just get punished for doing the right thing, feels like a recurring theme over these last few months.
 
Lots of resentment on social media regarding the perceived preferential treatment of London. The Tories have slandered Labour as the party of the London elites but that seems to be backfiring somewhat .....

Appears South Tyneside and the whole of Teeside have poor numbers. Rest of Tyne and Wear, Durham and Northumberland are less now than when we half way through local lockdown in October (whilst in tier 2)

Hospital numbers are significantly higher though so this will have an impact
