Stupid is stupid does ….selfish assholes..

In Spain tourism represents 16% of the GDP.

Our ]¬€~#@$%& government was the first announcing the 14 days quarantine. They better remove this very soon, as the situation is much under control now, or our economy will collapse for good...

Horses and stable doors come to mind !

Rugby and soccer players are being tested.
Care workers are not.
Why ?
On tonight’s news were reports of soccer players being tested and returning to non contact training.
Pro 14 rugby tentatively restarting in August.
Why are there, admittedly small numbers, of sports people getting access to testing and not greater numbers of care workers who are in hands on contact with very vulnerable people? If there is a limit to available testing capacity who is saying yes to non essential people?
As for the 2 week self isolation of people entering the country.....why hasn’t this been enforced weeks ago? How many carriers who were asymptomatic have come in and accelerated and increased cases? Where will they be isolating? Surely it should be at the point of entry or at designated isolation centres? Allowing entrants to commute to a home address before isolating with spot checks only ( like curfew orders checked by police have been a normal condition for some offenders). One less than young couple were interviewed on arriving by plane. The plane was jam packed. So much for social distancing.
The stable doors were left open, never mind not bolted.
Meanwhile my area Dyfed Powys, has a clear lead in fines for lockdown transgression. Unbelievable when you see that it is a quite rural area with limited population concentrations. Some classic examples of long distance travelling for selfish and stupid reasons. Give some people an inch and they take a mile.
Typhoid Mary would be proud of them.
I am off outside satellite watching now.

Don’t try this at home, but what’s to stop a UK citizen visiting Ireland for a few days, flying to Greece for a week, back to Ireland and reentering the UK with no quarantine restrictions?

Just read an article on this - no restrictions - reliant on good faith.

Yes and when you get back you can travel across the UK before isolating. They will track your phone to see you are at home. those who don't care will leave he phone at home.
Meanwhile Cummings just ignores the rules & travels to his second home whilst self isolating. Classic do as I say not do as I do.

It is probably a complete coincidence that there was a spike in infections following Cummings' visit to Durham.

It seems that both the Prime Minister, and his deputy Boris were playing a little fast and loose with the rules in the early days......

Exquisite timing for Dillie Keane to post the song for Dominic Cummings.....
