Someone must have shown Boris the real numbers.

So because England eventually saw sense we should refuse to because England did it?

We've adopted a different strategy and are weeks ahead of UK.

Why do people not get this.

There is an obsession with lockdown on this thread.

How are you possibly comparing us with a country with nearly 350 deaths? It's a ridiculous comparison. You can't compare countries in this scenario.

Because we are testing at a snail's pace. The full extent won't be known here.for some time.
We have thousands of idiots going around like nothing's wrong. Our figures grew by more today than ever. We had two deaths, we had four deaths in eight days before today.
Tomorrow is likely going to be worse again.

Just after hearing that my partner's sister got spat at in the face in the queue in Lidl today. She was at the belt in one of the social dis boxes, woman behind her was coughing and standing too close. She asked the woman politely if she'd step back, no the woman spat in her face. The woman had a young child with her. Imagine that being your mother! They served her then banned her from the shop.

That's assault and should be reported, plenty of cctv as evidence. Vile disgusting thing to do.

Why does Paddy Cosgrave think it's ok for him to spread personal information on Twitter about victims?

He's also peddling that 15 minute test that isn't even accurate as an Irish success story. It's just a rebranded Chinese test that's not accurate enough!

Some a****ole

jonnythefox · 23-03-2020 08:53PM

Any breakdown Today of cases per county?

iwillyeah1234 · 23-03-2020 08:53PM

it's going to be interesting to see how the British police enforce this in certain gangland/ghetto areas of London.

Jinglejangle69 · 23-03-2020 08:53PM

Oh no what will we do, Boris is suddenly the world's savour.

Jesus christ go live in the UK if you think they have done such a great job.

Imagine, praising Tories. Do people not realise we're a week ahead of them in terms of shutting things down?

Its all about timing lads, they keep telling us that. The UK have been saying it from day one. It may be too early for us yet but it will come.

A few days ago Leo agreed to follow Boris and 'closely align' with the UK 'as far as possible'.

England ****d it up so badly that they had no choice. We havent done the same as then so taking the same action makes no sense.

Lol, people throwing hissy fits because people thought Boris delivered a good speech. A lot of Irish people are just hoping the UK goes to absolute sh*t over this., it's sad. Should you not be over on reddit ireland posting anti-Brit memes with the rest of the teenagers?

It'd be a disgusting thing to do at any time. Not only assault, but potentially reckless endangerment as well.

All shops selling non-essential goods, such as clothing and electronic stores, are ordered to close.

Think thats what people meant maybe. While alot of other places (factory work etc..) which can be considered non essential depending on what they produce are they allowed to go to work ? or is it everything thats non essential

Non-retail, as I said, and from my reading of it anyone else - eg that factory or construction workers - were ok, but I imagine they'll clarify and close down more and more stuff.

We don’t , each country has to take account of demographics and pop density etc , Dublin may need more extreme measures, but Ireland has a tiny fraction of the population density the UK has. We need to take account of national circumstances rather then just simply aping others

Exactly. Slovenia relaxed rules today and let companies back to work. All countries are not the same.

Will we still be seeing 10s of thousands of people cramming on the London tube tomorrow morning at the behest of some short arsed power tripping middle manager or is that cut out?

No that is still fine. Not sure what powers the police will have that will stop people going out for exercise twice a day! Nice advice but saying the police have powers to stop that bit is guff.

Still a good step from the UK.

Is Varadkar going to extend the ban on gatherings past 29? Any word on that?

Enforcement will be very difficult, and the British know this

But the threat alone will make a lot of people think..so, some sort of result..

They know is they cannot stop everyone e from moving...

UK, timing?

It was not that long ago that Health Secretary was talking about passing legislation to force schools to stay open.

They fúcked it and now are panicking.

That said if Ireland don't get a handle on the testing we will have no choice but to do the same.
