Is anyone else confused a out Christmas? Am I right in thinking they've said we can have bubbles of three households over five days...? But there's not be an official announcement? I noticed on a Scottish article that Sturgeon was saying there would probably be some kind of travel restriction on that, but there doesn't seem to be any indication of what that is. Or have I missed something?

No official announcement yet as they're trying to get all the devolved governments to agree, so everyone in the UK is in the same boat.

They are still thrashing this out I think. Possible announcement tomorrow, but I can see it dragging on. Not like people need to make plans or anything...

Oh I meant why hoping to stay in tier 3?

It's selfish, and lazy but because I prefer it. I work at a pub so means time off work,  gives me more time to do stuff I enjoy. Pubs being open only means I now have to work, which has been a lot more stressful this year with all the rules.

I make maps for a living so I'm certainly not a flat earther but I am a Covid 19 vaccine sceptic.

so how much data / time do you need before you feel happy to take it ? or will you take it if it becomes necessary to have it to do things ?

Am I the only one who find this kind of thing an embarrassment?

The leader of the whole country who swans around in golden carriages, has access to an unlimited budget and yet they can't make sure that the tech works at 10 Downing Street?

Great way to project incompetence to the world.

Obviously the technical side of things is being run by former ballet dancers 😋

So have the explained how you get out of the stricter tiers? As fully expect Greater Manchester to go into Tier 3 but our numbers are dropping rapidly so what is the review process to change tier?

Below is the difference 10 days made (bear in mind the 12th Nov is probably a result of tier 3 whereas the 22nd will be due to lockdown)

There is no long term data - what if all the people injected with it drop dead in three years, or if they all go blind, or hair falls out or something we just don't know yet. Granted it's very unlikely but we don't know. 

If everyone who want it has it what difference does it make if I choose not to? You as a vaccinated person can probably still give me the virus and I will get as poorly as my body allows. If I have the virus and I give it to you you have increased protection.

You're still a transmission vector. 

What kind of threshold of data are you looking for before being satisfied the vaccine is ok to take?

You can still pass it on, some people like the elderly or vunerable who can't have the vaccine could catch it from you. 

Yes there is a risk they can still get it from someone who is vaccinated, but the more who have it then the less likely that is.

Just like they could catch it from anyone who has had the vaccine too.

    • They built a watering system and have been watering the island for the past few weeks to reduce dust, but given the current drought, there will still be dust. They will cover twice as much ground around the main stage with those plastic panels as they did before. They couldn't book Gogol Bordello because the singer was afraid the government would allow Russian security services to capture him if he entered the country. They didn't have much room to be selective about artists. They booked whoever they could get. This year's Sziget will be only about 50% of his original vision. He wanted a dedicated rock stage. They are preparing for a loss of 1.5 billion HUF this year. For some reason, student tickets are not selling in the numbers they had expected. He said that when he talks about the lineup being less important, he doesn't mean Sziget should have a weaker lineup than Primavera. Rather, it should have a similarly strong lineup combined with much more non-musical programming, so people from abroad come here to see the same artists but have a completely different overall experience. He didn't miss Sziget and originally wanted to spend no more than two days a week dealing with it, but now he's working on it full-time and has handed over control of the rest of his businesses.  
    • Well the point seems to be 22.7% turn out doesn't suggest the majority are rushing out to support the mayoral system.
    • I wonder if they had that vote again they'd vote differently, seeing how successful other mayors like Burnham have been?
    • Doesn't surprise me. West Yorkshire had a vote if they wanted a mayor in 2012 and voted no. The government then ignored the vote and announced the position anyway in 2016.
