This post has been merged from a topic called 'Conservatives early covid response was a failure.' by becky

It is the "world beating" nonsense that they put out for the past year that irks ASCP, and that mistake on week one, was only to go against the EU advice, it lasted a week before lessons were learned that if the EU 27 countrys experts have an opinion, don"t just go against it to show we are different, only to get pied a whole week later! As for the press, you know it2s only in the last couple of days the newspapers have turned against bungle in the uk, thats because he and his cabinet are so so bad, there is no hiding place, and they want to be seen as being on the side that always knew and said so, but trhats just the last few days!

Has becky been up to her old tricks again?

All too often the problem is that people take a cynicism of mainstream media which is of course reasonable to a point, and replace it with something even more off the rails, typically one man bands by mugs (or grifters) for mugs, or organisations with as much if not more of an agenda then any they criticise, which they then lap up wholesale with no quarms. Unfortunately the bulk of what's on Bitchute is often not some kind of considered valid alternative. It's instead frequently a playground for people mentally off the deep end in one way or another. Case in point 'HappyPeasant' also wants to tell us the the vaccine 'causes a death spike', that there will be a 'wave' of deaths' due to it, that it's akin to worldwide governmental satanic worship and is the 'mark of the beast'.

Your thoughts on this topic have already been covered in the original Covid thread, and that is why I merged them.

Your absence for the next week will be much appreciated in moderation terms.

A stairway to Heaven and a Highway to Hell give some indication of expected traffic numbers

To be honest, I half agree with you. The Tories haven't been great, but I will say there's a serious lack of information on plenty of other countries. I wouldn't be taking many of the stats as equivalent. I would generally say, I haven't seen many thinking their country dealt with it well. Whilst in other countries similar stories to stuff in the UK come out all of the time. You would genuinely think I was joking if I went into some of the rules I've seen personally.
OK I will put a couple from abroad:

Here in Ireland, and my personal favourite, was a 9 euro meal rule. In that, at the height of the pandemic, you could drink in the pub if you had a 9 euro meal. (My joke is that 9 euro obviously somehow makes you immune).

Another rule that springs to mind was in Denmark. Public transport was open but you had to have a seat and a mask, fair enough. That was changed to having to wear a mask if standing, not if sitting. So the virus differentiates between sitting and standing, clever stuff.

I think there was perhaps some eating rule in England wasn't there? Begone Covid, I've a full stomach.

As you can imagine - plenty of complaints. Mostly, silenced currently but I expect more will come out.
