i think this should be the end of party politics on this thread but it just amazes me that the people who didn't want Lockdown 1 and could solve everything with hindsight are now the people calling for earlier Lockdown 2 Let's face it we only get info fed from dumb reporters or often rogue profs who think they have a priviliged view because they have a title. We don't really know what's going on but if we don't support what's being planned then it'll go on forever. The only people who'll solve this are the scientists. Have faith, we have a fantastic bio science base in this country. I agree with most of this. We do have a fantastic science core in the UK, but the trouble here is that those who make the decisions are only defaulting to them when it's too late, or if it fits with their own political agendas. Being critical of those in charge doesn't make it a political argument either. If it was Labour making these poor decisions I'd be equally loud in my criticism. We unfortunately are faced with a cabinet that is completely out of its depth. National emergencies like this should be a joint parliamentary venture to ensure focus and avoid the point scoring that is going on. Paul This government have made this party political.Then they tried to blame the scientist,last week Manchester was getting peanuts now the South is involved its chocolate peanuts.Anyone with any savy would have made it none political. |

Are we going to stop this drivel? The best way is to not keep posting on the thread. Nobody has really gone off on one yet, but there is time I suppose. |

Nobody has really gone off on one yet Really ? You're the boss,so it’s your call Yeah it's not as simple as just locking threads at will. This thread shows why. The topic, while RL relevant also comes with a connecting political side. The thread remained constrained by the users until venturing into political opinion specifically with JJR and Michiganred. A few counterpoints were aired and some took the bait that was clearly offered. If the thread had then turned into a shouting match I'd have locked it, but it has just fizzled out really. Interesting that those calling for it to be moderated are those that have happily brought about its derailment and had their say. I suppose it reflects the polarisation of modern society quite well. I will lock it now as it isn't going anywhere fast and I'm sure this reply will not sit with certain people. If anyone feels the need to discuss please PM me.  |
