It’s amazing that he never thought this might happen when he announced a wide spread of a new variant of the virus

We are witnessing the fall of a Prime Minister, trust me he is gone within a year.

Ah, the big Xmas  shop. Can you not do it at the end of a shift or when shop is quiet?  Dreading this week, we’ve got four big shops to do including our own. Doing favours for some housebound folk. And due to travel restrictions it means the local Morrisons rather than the exotic pleasures of Asda or Tesco. 

the shop won't be quiet at all this week , we arent getting any priority , but I might be able to enter via the colleague entrance after my shift to avoid the main q .... reduced trading hours ... will mean we are more busy ... I will just have to see what our maxed out limit of 1500 feels like ... and get used to it .... its going to  be like that all week .... I will just try and avoid picking the fresh food areas of the shop when it becomes too busy

It's a kick in the balls for France to ban freight. Wouldn't antigen tests for freight drivers be a better option than fucking the British economy and public even further? 

This is especially the case seeing as the new strain will/is already spreading round Europe anyway. Banning freight will make little difference to the virus but have a big impact on a lot else.

(Ignoring Brexit and the fact the government has inflicted this on a longer term basis anyway.)

Hasn’t it been around since September? 
 

Did it just forget it was super virulent for 3 months? 

From BBC:

Quote

The new variant was first detected in September. In November it made up around a quarter of cases in London. This reached nearly two-thirds of cases in mid-December.

Three things are coming together that mean it is attracting attention:

It is rapidly replacing other versions of the virus
It has mutations that affect part of the virus likely to be important
Some of those mutations have already been shown in the lab to increase the ability of the virus to infect cells

    • Based on previous times that rules quite a lot out of early summer festivals into the August runs.
    • No dramas man, I just like to follow others journeys as well. Get the inspiration, give out inspiration and the outdoors is the clear the head place to do it. I'm heading out for a easy trail run today I think, 10k- 10 mile we'll see how we go. I've got a half marathon in October I'm well unprepared for hahs
    • The Cheap Thrills at Mountford Hall, Liverpool.    They've been around for a while and have built up a large local following. Last night was their biggest yet, at a sold out 2,200 capacity venue.    It was a big old joyous, indie singalong from start to finish, the band clearly having the time of their lives. The debut album is out next month and they seem to be going down well on the festival circuit, maybe their time has finally come.   2 supports, I unfortunately missed Credits but the few songs they have on Spotify sound good, Americana vibes. The other was M60, reportedly Gary Neville's favourite band. If that's true, he's as clueless about music as he is football. To be fair, their sound was poor, maybe with a clearer sound they'd have been better but it was pretty dull.  
    • I can see them all merging along with the Tory’s . Restore curently couldn’t muster enough candidates to be a viable option . I lasted 4 mins and couldn’t watch any more . Lowe is just dull along with racist
