The more whining I hear from Sinn Fein or make believe money that they believe we have, the more I hope they don't get into government

Leo said there would be a list published as to what defines and essential service that can stay open.

Anyone know where this could be found ?

I'm looking for that too, give me a shout if you find anything please.

Gangs of hoodies on da go ....

Social distance what a pain
Queue's of shoppers in da rain
Hording loo roll by the tonne
Wash your face & wipe your bum...

Wear a mask & wash your hands
Don't get sick man, "swollen glands"
Keep your distance, stay away
Stay indoors now night & day...

Donald Trump is in the da house
Orange skin man sexy spouse
Somting's happened wit his hair

Amen, one time.

Perhaps FG are handling this situation well but we should never forget that they left us one of the worst prepared countries in the western world when it comes to critical care capacity. We will have to look back after this and say that we were left down by their government when it comes to health and housing.

One week into a crisis they manage to freeze rent increases and substantially increase our hospital capacity while they sat on their hands for 10 years. People would have respected them if they had taken the crisis in health and housing up to now a quarter as seriously as they have rightfully take for the COVID-19 crisis.

It's not something for this thread, but they had to clean up a mess of a massive financial collapse, couldn't spend on hospitals, that's not their fault, its governments before them etc.

But again this isn't something to be discussed on this forum.

Alcohol sales in off licences will be off the scale now

Look this extension is what it is and hope to god it works

€350 a week is great money but will companys who give minimum wage pay that amount?

BluePlanet · 24-03-2020 05:14PM

What's going to stop employers from demanding staff turn up and then just ignore 'social distancing'?

SF always have to get a party political broadcast in, ffs will they ever be constructive?

Also as a thought 10 year tax free for all front line nurses and doctors after we get over this

ExCel exhibition centre in London taken over by the NHS - enough space for 2,000 patients. Military involved in converting it.

No Its all about choices, they made some wrong choices.

I think parties are generally wearing the green shirt but talk about naked politicking and she's a potential MoH.

Painful, can she not just give credit where it's due. It's been a mammoth task to get Social Welfare and Revenue to get these supports up and running. Major credit is due to all concerned. Payments will be made this Friday, what more does she want :rolleyes:

stephenjmcd · 24-03-2020 05:15PM

An unfortunate set of numbers from Italy after 2 days of decreases. It's not a realistic number all the same, as was said today it could be 10 times the reported numbers.

On the reported numbers we really have to see how they go for the rest of the week as lockdown is now only in effect 14 days

List of essential workers to be released shortly I'm seeing on Twitter.

All the workers in my office told to report in tomorrow. 90% of us do non essential work but still told to come in. 50 of us in the same office. All 2 meters apart though. I would of thought non essential workers wouldn't be asked to go in. But seeing as 10% is then they are putting us all in the same boat and getting everyone in

Tip off the guards, that will sort it.

Where i work, there is very strict Physical/Social Distancing when entering the factory...But once your inside there is very little physical distancing, and still folks all bunched together to clock out.

We are only manufacturing medical devices which are used in procedures which are typically 97% elective so not really needed in the present moment...But they won't close

Donnelly, much as he annoys me, understands and is saying the right things.

I wonder is there now spread beyond Northern Italy. Lockdown began there first, but people travelled from there to other regions before it was implemented.

That's your opinion but you can't say they weren't preparing. They have been since January, we are in a better position than losts of other countries. We moved to implement restrictions alot earlier too.

Looking over across the water I'd rather have this gov than boris when it comes to actions taken

She was previously on discussing how they won the ‘popular vote’. When it was put to her that we have PRStV and popular vote is Meaningless, she proceeded on a rant about how SF are the people’s voice so that’s what matters
