Careful, you're in danger of letting the truth spoil one of aintclever's police blaming scenarios.
-
Certainly seems like the most logical progression for English football hooligans who become 'ex' hooligans, to take up a (mainly) online cause to ensure a continued white majority in America. Can't think of anything else they would possibly do.
-
How do you implement that cunning plan? True to form though, out with the insults when you've lost your argument.
-
Exactly. I've tried to get this point across to aintclever, but it's not sinking in. Local surgeries organising the vaccinations only have health and age records, they have no idea who works where! Maybe the best plan is to have some nurses stood at the taxi ranks until all the cab drivers have been jabbed. Then they can move on to the night clubs....
-
It is obvious and didn't need saying - aintclever only brought it up to deflect from his stupidity. At the moment, the majority of public facing roles aren't at work due to lockdown - shop workers, hospitality etc. Those at more risk of becoming ill are being prioritised, you'd think it was so obvious it wouldn't need saying. Apparently not.... The r rate can be 10 or more if everyone who is likely to become seriously ill has protection, aintclever seems fixated on controlling something that has become largely irrelevant since the vaccines were launched.
-
Do you honestly think that a 20 something teacher is more at risk of developing severe symptoms than a 50 year old "housewife"? The argument cuts both ways, but it's pretty obvious you cannot vaccinate all of the population at the same time, so you have to prioritise by risk (of potentially overwhelming the hospitals).
-
And yet, oddly, you seem to be confusing someone's profession with their propensity to be affected by the virus. Haven't you lived like a hermit for the past year anyway? Pretty sure you also got ill at some point, enough to warrant having a test, which should be enough to tell you that even people who spend the majority of their time at home can still catch the virus... The decision was made to vaccinate the population based on age as well as underlying illness / risk. Seems pretty logical to me and certainly seems to be effective, especially given that the local surgeries contacting people for their jab have access to those criteria, but don't have a clue what people do for a living

Are they reformed and now law abiding citizens?

Not sure you've really understood the principles behind vaccinating the older people, but no shock there! The priorities around vaccination haven't been about making sure people in public facing roles are nice and safe. From the outset the priorities have been around making sure the NHS isn't overwhelmed in order to avoid much worse consequences. I imagine that's why they decided to vaccinate the older people first to protect them, you know, to stop them from getting ill and ending up in hospital because they have far worse symptoms. Maybe they should have just ignored all the older people, especially those in care homes because they don't have to go out to work at all, what with their pensions and all

Yep. He's like an open book! Just let them light their candles and shit, eh?

Had a headache for a couple of hours and a sore arm for a couple of days, not the worst thing that can happen. Mrs WSS had a sore arm, headache and then a weird muscle pain around her shoulder blade two days later that lasted for a day or so.

Bailout denied - undoubtedly because of Brexit though, nothing to do with the 'shady' owner and 'shady' financial backers! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-56554590

First we had the CPS not bothering to prosecute sexual offences (nice one Soggy!), then the Government are trying to introduce a bill to make the burden of proof higher, now we have the prison service happily letting (alleged) sexual offenders go! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-56554492

Maybe a little too risque?

You should have told the police that and given them the benefit of your clearly superior intelligence and tactics when it comes to policing demonstrations, protests and vigils as it looks like they don't know. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-bristol-56477887 Presumably they were just letting them light their candles and shit and waiting for them to get bored and go home. Who knew that a peaceful protest could turn violent - obviously they needed detective super cop aintclever in their ranks to learn them good and proper!

Third night of protests in Bristol https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-bristol-56542893 Detective super cop aintclever's tactic of leaving them alone until they get bored and go home didn't work so well on Sunday, looks like they've been encouraged to come back for rounds two and three.

If he's been suspended it is likely to lead to a dismissal (at worst) - you can't sue for constructive dismissal if you've been dismissed, only wrongful dismissful or (rarely) breach of contract. If he resigns during the suspension he could potentially claim for constructive dismissal.

Not long now for Plan B.

Re-examining and learning from history

Do you think people are walking around and grinning when they visit Bodmin Jail - or do you only class amusement parks as tourist attractions? -

Not sure you can get STDs from a cough... I imagine that's what the S and T stand for

And to be fair, it was a hypothetical answer to the hypothetical question of what more the Government "could" be doing to control infections. If used at the right time it could have been as effective as quarantine hotels have been in Australia. It's just a pity that aintclever, ain't clever enough to understand something that is hypothetical.
