They don’t lose control if they say Advisor breaks rules & he’s being dealt with accordingly Strong decisive leadership and shows us it’s not one rule for them and another for us It’s weak minded management and leads to a more problematic future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you or a member of your family show symptoms you self isolate in your home. This was the rule in place at the time. Everyone knew what they were being asked to do.

We have probably all had a member of staff who (usually based on ability but in recruitment good looks seems equally important 😂) is seen as ‘better’ than their peers and so get better opportunities. When these staff fuck up it has to be dealt with as it would with others. It is just coming across that Boris is scared of Cummings or he is simply above the rules. The smug prick trying to take the piss out of the press just shows he clearly thinks he is untouchable. Not an ounce of remorse. People have missed family funerals and been unable to say goodbye to dying relatives because of the rules. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter only1swanny Posted May 25, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted May 25, 2020 Primary schools still set for the 1st june.. secondary schools have been pushed back to the 15th and very unlikely it will be classes based upon the current wording.

Not in Crawley Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Today programme was an interesting listen this morning - they are certainly going to try and ride it out but unless there are some real answers to the questions posed it might yet unravel and how many MPs get constituents up in arms against the decision with stories of parents dying without family around them, children not saying goodbye to loved ones etc etc This is an emotive issue as much as anything else - if they can’t come up with some answers to basic questions then they’ll need something else to distract and take the headlines.

Site Supporter Spider Posted May 25, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted May 25, 2020 He’s not going to budge. He’ll manufacture some other distraction this week to shift attention. I imagine it’ll be the green light for football to start or flights to Benidorm. Whatever calms the proles down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes - the school’s opening hasn’t worked, announcement on bars/pubs etc anything to give people a boost. Glittery distraction - look over here folks!

I’ve moved from being really annoyed about him doing what he did, to being quizzical as to whether there was something we were missing to today of full on laughter at folk frothing at the mouths and anyone who diagrees that he should be hung is a tory cunt. saw tony bellew has been relabeled tory bellew by the Twitterati 😂😂 all because he pointed out about the journalists and photographers hounding him at his house and not socially distancing. bamk holidays with no sport are generally shit and unheard of so this should keep me amused for the rest of the day thankfully watching people implode Edited May 25, 2020 by Escobarp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
