Slow news day, or end of the world?

”Aggressive” new variant has landed in Moscow. Makes people, even those that have been vaccinated, more poorly than previous types.

Time for Uncle Joe to push the button? Short term pain.

Both

Both not required, one or tuther

Thought I was going to make it through the school year, got so close. My lateral flow on Sunday was negative but girlfriend's was positive. Both did PCR a few hours later and both positive. Both work in schools so done well to make it this far.

School has had false positives and false negatives on lateral flows this week

Seeing on bbc news that starmer is at it again. Wants this to never end it would appear. Bizarre

Well the longer it goes on, the longer the stick he’ll have to beat the government with. I’d love to see how Starmer would have handled the whole Covid crisis from the start - on second thoughts, no i wouldn’t.

What has he said that makes it appear he "wants this to never end"?

Wants masks to remain mandatory on public transport

In fairness, that aspect hardly a prolonging- the official line (guidance) is to do just that, its just not compulsory. 

The general whining and accusations continue though. May as well make hay and all that.

That's the point. Starmer clutching at straws for something to disagree with Boris about. 

I lasted about 2 minutes watching it while I was having my lunch then put the radio on instead.

I suspect this will happen anyway, no matter what Starmer says. Already I think TFL are talking about "asking" people to continue wearing masks. It'll probably be happening on International flights for a while longer yet as well

So, I've been needlessly mixing my batches for no reason, bugger.

Don't bother with pmqs any more because it's just political jousting for the sake of it.

Just happened upon the last minute or two of it as the radio crackled back into life on the car as we were driving through wooded valleys.

They should have called it off for the day, gone down to the boozer, put the world to rights over a few shiggers, and warmed up for the game.

Might be something in that.

PMQ’s at teatime every Friday from a boozer.

They have to start drinking at noon.

That’d be ace.

I'm with you.

Who drinks what?

Reckon Boris has got a bit of a whiskey belly.

Boris looks like he's one of those real ale weirdos. Starmer a single malt snob. Wee Nippy a Thunderbirds and Vimto cocktail slurper

I reckon Jimmy Krankie would only ever drink scotch and Irn Bru just because it’d be expected of a jock.

Boris looks like a Sherry drinker, maybe a few ouzo’s towards the end of the night.

Starmer is Guinness, nailed on.

Boris would put up a windmill but Starmer would destroy him.

Boris drinks Directors bitter.

No chance. Starmer would turn tale and have it away on his toes.

Boris is the master of the late, sliding challenge remember- though he reserves it for the Germans.

looking like 90k being allowed into wembley

be a lot of isolations off the back of that 🙂
