One of my daughters whose a single parent with a 4 month old baby. Was advised by her health visitor last week she could visit & make up our bubble ( 5 in our household) she lives by herself. Under the new laws is this illegal now as she was hoping to come over tomorrow.

Boris Johnson to hold coronavirus press conference tomorrow He will be joined by England's chief medical officer Professor Chris Whitty and chief scientific adviser Sir Patrick Vallance.

Excellent

So could 2 separate households with family members book 2 tables for the same time in a pub & go in seperatley ?

You'd think she'd know like it's crazy. Mind you the whole lot has been a complete shambles Boris with his "do this but dont do this" & "do that but dont do that"

You could see it spreading all over Europe. Rather than stopping travel in & out of the country, Boris chose to watch it coming. Then said we'd try "herd immunity" then shit his pants when he eventually realised the severity of the virus. Genuine questions, given we have these new tighter restrictions in the North East how long should it be before we are able to see if they're working ? Also have tighter restrictions imposed on Leicester worked ?

Either Spain or France had people offering to take dogs for walks as it was one of the only ways of leaving the house.

Your right my mate who lives in Spain was telling me they had 1 designated person who did the shopping picked up prescriptions etc per household. None of these family trips out to the shops like we've seen here. When they unlocked here as PL says infections were still between 1 & 2 k per day. Yet a lot of people thought ah well that's it gone then let's get back to normal. Family shopping trips little or no social distancing. The same ones are probably moaning about the tighter restrictions being brought in now. Admittedly it doesnt help when you've a mumbling bumbling fool running the country. The same one who seems to disregard the advice from his medical advisors.

Unlocked too early if they'd waited another couple of weeks at least.

Public health officials have upped the city’s Covid-19 alert system to the highest possible level, amid a continuing spike in cases. City council bosses say that they are now in ‘red plus’ mode, with Newcastle now having one of the highest infection rates in the country.

Wether you agree with the decision about the penalty or not. It doesnt detract from the fact "Bruce's Boys" were utter dogshit.

Fun Fact ... Since Opta began collecting exact Premier League goal times in 2006, Callum Wilson's penalty equaliser for Newcastle (96:20) is the latest any side has scored with their first shot on target.

Shame on you

Good Olde Fashioned "Frashing" for Bruce's lads today

It is shit I missed the kids & grandkids terribly. But I'm willing to give it another go for all our sakes. It's the only way of fighting back at the minute.

Agreed "we cant Lockdown forever" But we could Lockdown for a month to try & get a bit of a head start on it. I can just picture Whitty & Valance shaking their heads as that stupid twat obviously ignored their advice. Which undoubtedly would have been for a full lockdown.

There's a good reason to think it is. I posted an article from The Guardian the other day this was from it. The number of schools in England badly affected by Covid-19 cases among students and staff has quadrupled in the space of a week, and the number of pupils absent rose by 50%, according to estimates released by the Department for Education. It went on to say close on 1,000 schools in England were affected. With 600,000 pupils absent because of covid related issues. Heres the article https://www.theguardian.com/education/2020/sep/22/covid-19-number-of-schools-in-england-not-fully-open-quadruples

At the minute we have nothing to combat this virus with . As we know it's a human to human transmitted virus. So surely the way to combat it, is limit the amount of human to human contact I.e. full lockdown. Yes there will be economic repercussions but it's not like it's just our country this is affecting. I honestly think they unlocked too soon even another 2 weeks would have helped. Like everyone else I dont have any answers. But given the information we got from Whitty & Valance Boris should have called a full National Lockdown. He came out & said he knew the 2nd wave is coming. So why wait for it to come (like last time) its sheer stupidity

If things get out of hand we may see the army make an appearance

Protesters who were in Trafalgar Square are now on their way to Buckingham Palace

Boris's response on Wednesday doesnt fit the information Whitty & Valance projected on Monday

Well the Full National Lockdown seemed to work last time. There were just over 650 new infections daily. The infection numbers are over 10 times that amount now & yet theres no Full Lockdown. I just dont understand it.
