Plan B

[Botchie]

The timing is interesting

Anyone would think they needed a distraction.

One thing I don’t get is the accusation this is to deflect from the alleged party. Why on Earth if you want to deflect from that would you use the same topic (Covid) and implement something where you will need to do a press conference and expose yourself questions from journalists.

Doesn’t make sense as a deflection. The policing bill would but the last thing to deflect from Covid is more Covid

Probably because nobody has got footage of a minister with his hand on his secretaries arse.

Anyone else sensing some social unrest over vaccine passports?

Yup

 

[chrismisterx]

wow, was not expecting this, this soon.

Either some data has been shared government to government ( SA / Israel maybe? ) thats made Boris piss his pants and we will get some crappy news leaked about vaccine problems or some such thing down the line or its 100% a politic stunt, for what purpose who knows.

no reason at the moment with current public figures for any change in covid policy.

 

[Botchie]

This goes to show how f***ing thick they think we all are.

Too little too late again.

Too little too late again.

You've been saying "it's too early to tell anything" for the last week and a half.

You've been saying "it's too early to tell anything" for the last week and a half.

I've also been saying for much longer that its necessary to act early to get ahead of the virus, not wait and react.

Nah, he's been saying it's too early for just anything positive, but has always been pro lockdown & wants restrictions brought in, in a country where he doesn't even live.

Wrong, I am not pro lockdown, completely the opposite in fact.

What a saddo comment to make.

It does deflect if the story of plan B being implemented replaces the story of the party on the front pages/TV.

Indeed.

 

[Hank Scorpio]

100% there will be protests. Probably rioting.

Which helps move the news cycle on

School year 4 is on the phone. They want their insults back.

If hospital cases aren’t rising we should just crack on or what is the point

I think they are looking at the SA numbers of what could be coming here. Hancock said there was some worrying info from SA overnight. And:

[Behind Enemy Lines]

Never partaken in political protests in my life but I will if they usher in plan B simply as a distraction technique from their own fuck up. What an absolute shambles of a government, worst in the history of this country.

Same here, don't care if I look like an "anti-vax" loon, enough is enough.

You have to be braindead to still swallow this bullshit now.

 

[SAFC 2012]

What is more worrying is there are still loads and loads of people on here that think the government are arsed about them and their safety

 

[Safc1987]

Morons. People will no doubt be angry etc at Yet another mis hap yet come 5.30 will be glued to the screen following his every word from tomorrow, rinse and repeat
Still amazed people think this is all about health and welfare
Vaccine passports ethically are a disgrace they don’t stop anything spreading, all a farce, all about the control now

 

[Leonard osbourne]

Defamation of Stickland Banks was a good album, which I was reminded of when the governments plan b was rumoured, at least thats a positive in the shite that's going on....

cannot compare us to SA, vaccine uptake is way higher here aswell as loads of other variables. We also do not know how poorly people are with omicron, evidence so far is less than delta.
