That's the problem though. Some of the contracts, such as those to supply PPE, resulted in useless products being supplied. That's down to dealing with and trusting the Chinese. Their businessfolk on the whole have no ethics when it comes to money and the shitbags had us over. It's not, though. It's trusting with contracts your old school chums who may or may not trust the Chinese, and don't really give a fug one way or the other, so long as they are pocketing the dosh, and can get away with it. So far as breaking the law goes, there is no question about that. If a Minister is seen to be breaking the law of his country, under whatever circumstances, he should resign. He is a very bad example to the rest of the population, and all this adds to people's feelings about the way these deadheads have been behaving in general: do as we say, not as we do, we are untouchable.

Okay, so in June / July nearly all adults will have had their first jab which takes 3weeks to be effective and then a further 9 weeks before the 2nd jab and again a few more weeks for it to kick in. Basically a further three months between jabs which means all adults will be vacinated and 'safer' by October............ My 2nd jab is mid-May if lucky.
Come the summer when lock-down is eased and folks can go on holiday, just how many will behave and try and stay safe? I forsee human nature where there's never been any dicipline will just bring another wave just in time for autumn.

The second jab possibly doesn't increase the level of immunity it just extents the duration. Its all very early days, only time will tell but the indications are encouraging. There is a suggestion that they should be vaccinating school age kids because there is a growing belief that they are the invisible spreaders. Despite not showing symptoms, it is thought kids were the reason for the massive surge in January after Christmas restrictions were eased and families got togeather.

Heard on the news earlier that you can travel outside of your area BUT not for overnight. Overnights from May 17th (just said on news now) which differs from April when campsites can open ? ffs

Everybody who goes will have to be by the sound of it. That doesn't cause me concern, I won't be going whatever Its like, now the restrictions look like they are lifting, people are rushing to book holidays in places like Spain with companies called "Chavs Abroad". I can think of nothing worse than paying money to be in a hotel on the Costa Del Salmonella with a load of British holidaymakers for company.

In Germany, the German press has put so much effort into rubbishing the Oxford A-Z jab for nationalistic reasons calling it the British Vaccine that now they have it available people are reluctant to come forward to get it.

Thats a survey of 1200 people --- big deal I used to get paid 10-50p to do a survey , i would just tick boxes at random, couldnt care less what I put down. Any old bollox Then you would get the same survey again and again. So eventually you cottoned on they were looking for something that you werent giving them ch They keep fishing till eventually they get the result they want and discard the others. For those of you in search of a few bob surveys give you a few bob, not much more but Hey! its a few bob

Just a shame that covid didn't take out the tossers who come up with such bollux. Just how does the way peeps vote link to their sense of survival when it comes to politics.
On the otherhand
