I don’t think jimmy should and I haven’t said anything like that. I’m just interested in the reaction depending on the political party that the person committing the breach comes from. all politicians and advisors of all political parties should be held to the utmost standards. Can I ask what you think the reaction in the media and on here by some would’ve been if it was Boris who has done what jimmy has done? No I had not read it at the time. But think we are coming from similar positions. I said Hancock at the time had done nothing serious wrong. Stupid but not serious. Can only guess at the media’s reaction and others on here. Can imagine some faux outrage but not much I can do about them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With only 500k done in 2 weeks it feels like they are well behind with what they said Edit... if it’s lack of vaccines then fair enough, seems odd that we only got 500k on the first delivery though when they talked about millions Edited December 23, 2020 by birch-chorley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know many doubted they would be able to start rolling this out quickly, sadly so far it looks like they were right. Here's hoping the AZ vaccine gets approved quickly, and we can really start motoring on the vaccinations from February/March Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youri McAnespie Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Cummings should be tarred and feathered, stripped naked and banished to a cave in Galloway. Not for his 'I'm better than the plebs' lockdown breach - for being an utterly scruffy arsewipe and probable Russian agent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonzo Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 I wasnt remotely arsed cummings broke the rules. I was more arsed he lied to get out of it, lied again and then lied a bit more including directly addressing the nation with the biggest pile of fantasy bullshit since Harry Potter. Think that's what got most people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They already are (the streets) - maskless m0ngs bowling about spreading miasma like it's any other normal day. Most of whom won't get vacced and probably think it was engineered in North Korea to enable Bill Gates and George Soros to microchip the world - turning everyone into enslaved automatons. They wouldn't use that phrasing, it'd be more like "Durrr ermmm Facebook errm when's Maccy D open err again ermmm Deliveroo umm..." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd think they would be talking about it all the time, and boasting about how far ahead of everybody else we are with the vaccination programme compared to other nations, because we approved first and are now leading the fightback Wiff-Waff, Spitfires etc. The fact we're not talking about it too much tells me that it's not going swimmingly well this far, certainly not as planned/promised. I may be thinking about it too hard though 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 What was the original target 2m before xmas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ani Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Tbf to the Govt in terms of % vaccinated we are world leading. https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/uk.news.yahoo.com/amphtml/coronavirus-chart-many-people-worldwide-received-covid-vaccination-uk-102423907.html if you believe the numbers. They have also been very clear that getting to as many people as possible is hard with the storage challenges on the original one. Getting the Oxford one approved seems like the next big step.
