Weston Super Saint

It's too late now! The vaccine has been rolled out and that is what will kill the mugs that have had it, maybe in 5 or 10 years or so, but not really sure how long or how it will happen, but it's definitely coming, you mark my words, nurse, nurse, nur.....

Where does Dr Cole sit in the grand, 'problem, reaction, solution' scheme? He seems to be suggesting that CoVid is actually real, but I thought it was all made up to ensure everyone is frightened and has the vaccine? Or is that a completely different 'problem, reaction, solution'?

Correct - I appear to have added the 'Neutrals' in by mistake. If I have upset anyone by my erroneous calculations, then you have my deepest and most sincere apologies. Interesting though that the only group that the Northern Irish distrust almost as much as the UK Gov't is the DUP! Seems logical that the next step should be a unified Ireland, especially given the lower levels of distrust of the Irish Gov't and EU

Odd. This is about the third time now that you've missed such obvious sarcasm. I had you down as a slightly more observant poster.

69% distrust Sinn Fein 60% distrust the EU 82% distrust the NI Executive Not sure what your point is apart from the fact that NI is incredibly insular and don't trust anyone - a nation made up of Collinsdic's!!

Surely the last person who would need surgical intervention, what with his hotline to the big man who could fix it for him!! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-57714250

You turn into Cinderella?

Living in your head rent free 😉

A narcissist with a persecution complex. Not sure there is any treatment for that (but obviously I'm not qualified, so don't lose hope!).

The significance being around 14% vaccine refusers (down from around 25% originally), meaning we are unlikely to achieve 100% of the (adult) population being fully vaccinated, so the total number with 2 jabs isn't likely to get above 86%.

Nope, not qualified. That's why I said 'I think you might have a mental illness' rather than 'you definitely have a mental illness'. Maybe we should have a poll

Source? As of yesterday, 85.7% of the adult population have had 1 vaccination and 63.4% have had two. source Given the number of vaccine refusers and the fact that the 1 vaccine figure has only risen marginally from 83% in the last 3 weeks, it is unlikely that more than 86% of the adult population will ever receive 2 jabs.

I think you might have a mental illness.

It's a constant source of amusement! A group of posters are always very keen to jump in and throw the 'thick cunt' moniker at me, all the while pulling their own pants down when it becomes clear they've not actually understood what is being discussed. Tamesaint is a prime example!

You need to explain that to Soggy. He's the one whose calculations include the rounding combined with the bold statement that 'every single vote counts', when, as you've rightly pointed out, unless the required percentage is achieved to gain a seat then ALL the votes cast for that candidate count for fuck all!

That seems amazing! What if 100 independent candidates all gained 0.6% of the vote. Would we have to create another 100 seats in Parliament or does you 'rounding' only extend to the 'bigger' parties?

Why? There's always a mong like you that gets made to look an idiot on every thread 👍

Still struggling with those 'I's', good job mate 👍

More 'overachieving' from Pogacar again today Completely destroyed the field on two Cat 1 climbs and did the Col de la Colombiere in the big ring!

Aren't you just confirming LD's point that the 'left' vote is split by too many choices? 2021 results : Labour = 13,296 Conservative = 12,973 Workers Party = 8,264 Lib Dems = 1,254 Previous results (GE 2019) : Labour Co-op = 22,594 Conservative = 19,069 Instead of bringing the party together, Starmer appears to be causing it to split. It seems that you are blaming the system based on the results of this by election, because the Labour pary has no unity! You didn't have the same complaint in 2015 when the result was more convincing under the same system....

Asking for a 'friend'?

Lawsuit withdrawn - I guess they've realised they haven't got a case! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-57677393

Another one for Cav....

Nice to see the PM blatantly breaking the coronavirus rules - even bragging about it on his instagram (drinks receptions aren't allowed, guests must remain seated). Maybe he gets a free pass because celebrating pride trumps covid rules? I assume he'll resign in the next day or so, after all, those that make the rules.... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-57669369

I see I may not have explained clearly. How it should read is five workers that work at the 101 centre have tested positive since the weekend, all of them have been double jabbed for months.... I get that once vaccinated it is unlikely to lead to severe symptoms, but that's five workers now isolating for 10 days and five families isolating for 14 days. Should the isolation rules be updated for what is likely to be a bit of a cold for those catching the virus once vaccinated? Andrew Marr is a double jabber that tested positive... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-57640550 Edit - just seen Whitey's post about Marr!!!
