Don't know town well enough to comment on the map of cases per borough. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-57094274 Comparing the two maps I think it’s quite clear what the problem is.

I’m happy to keep saying it. Asians in Bolton are choosing not to be vaccinated. I deal with lots of Asian folk through work, and they freely admit that it’s not something they’re all that arsed about. If anyone thinks I am being in some way racist, that’s up to you. But I sat with 2 Asian brothers (siblings, I’m not being urban) only yesterday in a plumbers merchants, and they said they don’t trust the jab. They laughed it off. It will not be all Asians, of course, but there’s no need for anyone to tiptoe around what is plain and obvious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BAME don't half blame a lot of COVID on others. How do you figure that out? Neighbouring countries like Pakistan and Bangladesh were already on the red list as was pretty much all of Africa.

Hence Blackpool and Wyre having next to fuck all cases despite it packed to the rafters every weekend. Every fuckers had the jab and there’s no Asian populace here.

I don't consider myself as racist/sexist/homophobic etc. but as you say, the facts are plain to see... it's happening over here in Leicester also... they just don't get it. All this reminded me of an old joke: A bloke goes to Bolton Station and asks for a ticket to Delhi, after a couple of hours going through the timetables halfway across the world the man in the ticket office fixes him up. He then went to Delhi Station and asks for a ticket to Bolton, immediately the bloke in the office says "Trinity Street or Moses Gate?"

I know a couple of white folk who won’t have it because they’re scared of needles and their tinfoil hats have become wedged on. They’re cunts too. But, percentage-wise, vaccine take up in the Asian community is much lower than the take up elsewhere. Its clearly cultural, religious or possibly both. A pandemic that restricts people of all colours and creeds should transcend individual cultural desires. It infects you whether you pray to Allah, God, Buddha, Vishnu or Ian Evatt. We are, in the face of Covid, just massive sacks of flesh and bone. It has fuck all to do with colour and background. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bolton_blondie Posted May 14, 2021 Members Share Posted May 14, 2021 So been told that Bolton FT want all staff who work or live in Bl1 or BL3 to get a covid test now. If it's true, this is gonna be fun 🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Spider Posted May 14, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted May 14, 2021 Selfish cunts as they are There's no way we should be locking down because they might get sick. Fuck 'em - they had their chance (and still do) with the vaccine. Hospitals are empty, and I want a pint indoors next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
