See they’re dismantling the nightingale hospital today. 

Hadn’t they best leave it up for second wave/next bollocks panic?

nah, easier to pay a mate to put it up again when the time comes

Disgusting 

anyone proven to profiteer in such a way needs to be sent down for a long time 

It’s a 15-20 years job for me, hard time in a horrible jail 

Agreed.

Just don't want to hang anyone just yet. Let the investigations take place, properly. Then, if evidence is found then do them.

Could be a gap in the market for these marquee erecting firms. 

Wonder who got that particular gig and how the tender process went :)

A local company did pretty well out of sales to the erection of some of these nightingale hospitals.

Helped keep local folk in work.

I know the company that got the contract for medical gas pipelines for 2 or 3 of the hospitals. The contract value was eye watering - they accidently sent me a payment application for the Manchester one instead of the job they were doing for me at the time.

Also

Covid accounts for only 7% of all deaths in people under the age of 55.

And 18% of all deaths in people under 65.

Clearly, something has to be done about the oldies to get us back on track.

Shit for them, I know, but they’re the ones it kills in real numbers.

bear in mind - these are mainly the retired or almost retired.

It may seem a bit far fetched, but I’d be asking over 60’s to stay home for the Autumn. Big fines if they don’t.

It is what it is for them I’m afraid.

Would it not be better to give them the option to stay at home but allow them the option to leave the house and follow the same regulations as the general population but at their own risk?

Wonder what the logic behind this is?

I've also always wondered why the Nightingale hospitals were built and never used, Covid patients were sent to regional hospitals and undoubtedly this resulted in the virus spreading to non Covid patients in there for other reasons and then onwards from there.

But they're not the ones spreading it, so why should they suffer?

Shit enforcement on folks who don't social distance.

 

And there's plenty of over 60's who are way fitter than some of these fat fuckin burger munching kids.

There won’t be any. They don’t investigate their own. 

If a qc has genuine evidence, he should pass it to the police. MPs and advisors aren't above the law.

They looked into my eyesight test remember. OK nowt happened, but if this qc is alleging fraud, then that's a different kettle of fish.

Pay someone to take em down

Pay someone to put them up?

 

Nah, course not

Nobody would be that bent

We supplied the Nightingales and there wasn’t much of a tender process. We were reasonable on pricing but it’s unlikely everyone was. Some people will have made good money.

Baffling to remove them at this stage, but I guess the second wave isn’t thought to be so nasty after all.
