    Just listening to Trump - he really is a buffoon - the whole briefing he says some absolutely stupid crap "building a lot of things in New York right now that nobody thought would be builded"

    Can you explain how I'll spread the Covid-19 by going for a drive?

    When you breath it goes into the air vents and out the air intake, despite the flow of air in the opposite direction. Then it gets into other people's cars.

    All the while we are allowed to enter supermarkets and paw the same items as hundreds of people before us. But fook being in the wide open miles from anyone.

    Licking your tyres yeh?

    What nonsense.

    Walking, it's now in the shoe, they remove the shoe, it's now on their hands, touchibg their front door, it's now in the door, wife and kids touch the door, now the family all have it.

    Yeah, my examples a little stretched but it seems you don't really understand who this thing works so I thought this would be best way

    Only one question - why?
    Because we don't a proper right wing party in this country to put tax payers first.

    That Sindy Joyce is an absolute muppet. I always see her on Twitter demanding better facilities for Travellers. Get a job, pay taxes and live in houses like normal people if they want better facilities.

    2km on the radius then 12.56km on the circumference of the circle.
    2km on radius back.
    Thats 14.56km.
    You can run all you like within 2km of your home.

    Over 1800 posts on and people are still cackling on about their poxy run and whether it exceeds 2km or not or that they will be rebellious and keep on doing their 8km or whatever. Seriously........1800 f**king posts. Knock yourselves out.

    You should try it. Preferably while the car is moving.

    I suspect living conditions and average family sizes make them a higher risk group. I don't really have an issue with it.

    Sorry but lots of people should be priority and still waiting for testing
    Should be no racial profiling for who gets a test or not.

    What surfaces?

    Any they touch or come into contact with

    Why is this so hard for people to fathom?

    ?

    Are you providing an essential service? If not then you close


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,043 ✭✭✭Polar101


    Have to say these new restrictions won't really change anything for me - been working from home since they closed the office down, and I've only gone out for a walk (early morning when there's few people around), groceries or the pharmacy.

    You still have not answered the question you were asked about the last lie you told. What part of the constitution means the current Government is unlawful?

    Better close the supermarkets in that case.

    Because they need a way to circumvent the rules so maybe floating is an option.


    Ummm No damn you gravity!!!

    Go back and actually read some of the posts in that conversation rather than just one of them.

    Why is that so hard for you to fathom?

    There is absolutely zero point engaging in the whataboutery of some people. The pedantry and mental gymnastics they engage in simply to avoid staying the f*ck at home is baffling. We can only hope they will be stopped and questioned. See how well their little dreamed up exceptions they have made for themselves go down :(

    Get a grip! No one is going to spread the virus or catch it, going for a drive. Put your reusable shopping bags in the car and take the long route to the shops.

    Correct me if I'm wrong but then youd be going SHOPPING. Which is still considered ESSENTIAL. I'm not talking about that, genius.

    I'm talking about the aholes who will most likely drive up and down this country over the next 2 wks for no other reason than they want to. Cop yourselves on and please for once do as you are flipping told!

    Any type of valid profiling to identify groups that may have higher than average numbers of carriers is fine by me. Doing that protects us all.

    Good. Keep this up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,061 ✭✭✭✭Tell me how


    Jaysus they had to hire two sign language people for the two speeches!!

    Wasted funds. Typical FG

    Signing someone speaking at a press conference is mentally and physically very tiring. The recommendation is that signers are changed every 10-15 minutes.
    If not, they will effectively start to stumble and stutter meaning deaf people watching will miss part of the information and feel more isolated. It is a key role and I am glad to see it being done as per standard practice.

    OK my husband is an essentials services worker, for the last week he has come home, eaten his dinner and gone out to his shed, gone to bed, avoided being in our space (our two children and myself), I would love to have a movie night all of us sitting haphazardly on couches with our dogs eating popcorn - not going to happen. Anyone who is working right now, is working until they get sick, their worst fear is that a member of their family will end up getting sicker than them.

    You have a chance to make happy memories AT HOME, USE IT.
