How? Surely the risk would be from ending isolation for those testing positive (which, incidentally you've already agreed is the right thing to do if it is 'based on science') rather than ending free testing?

Didn't some of our 'stock' already die?

To ensure he isn't prosecuted with a £100 fine 🤷‍♀️

He's banking on us doing that tomorrow when he announces covid restrictions will end....

Two fence panels down now. It's always so tough to pop them back into the concrete fence posts once the wind dies down

Have no fear, I fully understood the the physical process you needed to follow to quote Turkish's post. What doesn't make sense is why you would do it. You claim to have him on ignore, the only reason for that is presumably because you have no interest in interacting with him, yet you went out of your way to sign in, take him off ignore, quote his post and reply to it. That's a lot of effort for someone you don't want to engage with, which, quite frankly, doesn't make any sense (unless of course you're lying about the whole ignore thing )

This makes no sense. You need to be signed in to post a reply, which you did, even quoting Turkish. Do you really have zero self restraint when it comes to posting responses to users you've chosen to ignore?

Guess where I am? One fence panel came down on Wednesday night - it can stay where it is until next week once these storms blow through.

Move over Andy, you're last week's news. Now it's Charlie's turn to grab headlines with his cash for honours scandal coming back for round 2.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-60407010 How does a senior US official know this? Does this mean Russia has lost its ability to sneak around the globe and invade countries completely unnoticed?

😲Really, you wouldn't?

It's always a Westerley, so I can get the advantage at the start of the ride and then have to slog back into it for the rest of the day!

Looks like the 3rd Sunday in a row will be called off as 40-50mph winds are forecast once again!

Whilst there is no doubt he's a grubby royal (is he still a royal or have they taken everything away?) and a paedo (in some countries), he's probably saved himself a fortune in legal fees by settling.

I guess you think that Russia are able to launch a massive invasion of a neighbouring country without having any time to prepare and that no-one will notice an extraordinary amount of troops / weaponry massing on the border? They could have simply gone ahead and kept any invasion a secret so as not to allow Ukraine any time to prepare

Do you mean the 'inter continental ballistic' missiles? The ones that can fly from the US to Russia in about 30 minutes or hit Russia from a submarine in about 10 minutes? Not to mention the ones already situated in mainland Europe. Seems a bit redundant to wage war on your neighbours for the sake of potentially saving a minute or two of flying time for the nukes that might end up on their doorstep. Lots of dead bodies to not actually achieve any gains. Securing the land to run a gas pipeline from Russia into South Eastern Europe seems like a far more sensible reason to want to occupy your neighbour though.....

Yes. As Whitey has already pointed out but perhaps to re-inforce : https://www.drivingtestsuccess.com/blog/how-join-motorway

People who are incapable of speeding up when the join the motorway.

Flip Flop

Have you got any evidence at all that the 30% reduction in traffic is because lorries are no longer using the port in order to drive all the way across the country so that they can catch another ferry at another port in order to end up in their planned destination of Ireland, but instead are choosing routes from ports in Mainland Europe, direct to Ireland (which they would have done before Brexit if they were only travelling from the EU to Ireland!!)

Borriersaints post is claiming that "EU trucks no longer need to drive through GB to get to Ireland" which is what has been extropolated to explain why there is a shortage of trucks in the UK. I don't for one second believe what Borriersaint's post is suggesting, especially as the picture has been lifted from the Irish Embassy in France (basically explaining what routes are available) and the text has been made up by some no mark on the internet claiming they go hand in hand.

So what you're pictures are suggesting is that lorries that previously used to catch a ferry from France / Holland / elsewhere in the EU and then drive all the way across the UK before catching another ferry, solely to deliver goods to a destination in the Republic of Ireland are now using sea transport directly from mainland Europe to Ireland. I'm not sure why this is being classed as a bad thing. Previously there was absolutely no benefit to the UK as no goods were being delivered here (possibly there was a slight financial benefit from port operations), but nothing else. On the flip side, the UK had more lorries on the roads than was necessary, these were doubtless adding to congestion, therefore adding to polution as well as contributing to wear and tear on the roads which the UK had to fund in terms of repairs. There were probably numerous accidents that also needed to be attended to costing GB resources. I'm only seeing benefits to the UK for this particular scenario and strictly speaking (again in this scenario), there was no need for EU trucks to drive across GB to get to Ireland before Brexit. Looks like we can add this one to the Brexit benefits column as EU truck operators appear to finally be using common sense and causing GB less issues on the roads. Sunny uplands

What did they mean by this paragraph if it was not intended as a prediction?
