Sweep Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 4 minutes ago, Spider said: Based on being back on the roads, lockdown is over and done with. The roadmap should be ample. Jonny Foreigner just need to get their shit together and we can go back to bickering about, well, everything else. I'd agree with all that, we're actually back out visiting customers now 3 or 4 days a week, pretty much as it was before all this started. Stick with roadmap, and release everything on 21st June, as planned, and we should be good moving forward, as most folk will have also been double jabbed by then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get those mask gone, open up and lets crack on, we've cracked this, Bojo said this was now driven by data not dates 🤔 The dates are the minimum time it takes to get the data gathered and analysed. Only a few more weeks to go until freedom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted May 6, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted May 6, 2021 27 minutes ago, Mr Grey said: I'm not hearing anything positive from any politicians when they are asked about masks and back to normal life. What do you expect them to say? They can't be seen to be gung-ho, as we're not quite there yet, but cautious positivity seems to be prevalent. As things stand, everything returns to normal next month. No doubt some people may still be a little hesitant, and some will continue to wear a mask in certain situations (I probably will in situations where I think it may be beneficial), but the gradual approach seems to be working and people should take confidence from that. Come late June, most will be ready. I do think there will still be some public information reminders to us to wash hands and maybe consider masks in the autumn/winter, but I don't envisage a shit load of precautions. Possibly localised controls should public health bods deem it necessary, but that's very much down to people to get the jab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 1 minute ago, Mr Grey said: When put in % terms it seems high. If there was 8 deaths in Bolton last week and there are 12 deaths this week, its gone up 50%, seems high but still low, the lower the figures, once they rise, the higher the % rate. Indeed; more sensitive/volatile. nearly every vulnerable fucker is jabbed, so, hopefully, just young folks getting mild symptoms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Zico Posted May 6, 2021 Moderators Share Posted May 6, 2021 10 minutes ago, Mr Grey said: Just a little bit of positivity, like how low the infection rate is, and hospitalisations are so low that it shouldn'tbe long before we can stop wearing mask. I see nothing and when asked they still go on about other variants, you know other variants that aren't even here yet, its like they want one to happen, you can't live waiting for it to happen. Unfortunately we are still being told how we are to behave. The data says we should be coming out of this a lot sooner.. imo. I see it that that data shows the current plan is working so after the shambles of last year let's not be complacent As for masks, that should be June 21st They really don't want another variant to happen, they just want you to remember it could, so don't deviate from the plan, which is working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I don’t know why anyone believes they will be done away with next month? I think they will be the very last restriction to go. And if that’s the case as much as I don’t like wearing them for long periods of time I can live with it if I get everything else back personally Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone else said earlier, lickdown doesn't exsist anymore, traffic levels are back to normal, pubs have been open over 3 weeks and there hasn't been a surge in infections... a bit like last time. I’m not disputing any of that I just personally think a mask is a small price to pay if it means I can go and live my life again But everyone is different I accept that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted May 6, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted May 6, 2021 Mandatory wearing of masks currently ends on 21 June. It's in the official plan. Who knows, there may be subsequent subtle requirements, but that won't be without reason, but as things stand they're done with. Don't understand this negativity about positivity. Even if they did ask folk to wear a mask on a train or bus, that's not the end of the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you I hadn’t seen that about the masks. probably because I pay little attention to the plan down there other than pubs opening. Mainly because wee jimmy ain’t following that plan.
