    We can only save lives if people are actually dying from it.

    MM gone right up in my estimation the last week or so.

    Showing real leadership now after struggling at the beginning.

    Hah hah i see what you are doing.Very good

    So staycations are grand.... But avoid hotels if possible.

    What a mess. He's a terrible frontman, instills no confidence at all.

    In relation to the Berlin brunch, I see from the ticket it was a 3 hour event, what happened to the 105 minutes or were they operating via some loophole?
    The substantial meal was...a baked potato

    It's a kip it has been flaunting rules for weeks with opening times and numbers inside.

    I think Mehole might be after catching the BO-Ris-19.
    Symptoms include mumbling, waffling and communications being limited to ones anus.

    what age are people in here, its like listening to spolit children constantly.

    Everything is the gubberments fault to them.

    Zero personal responsibility

    No, it's the exact opposite in fact.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,157 ✭✭✭✭fritzelly


    Mm saying lots of words and making no sense


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,427 ✭✭✭Wolf359f


    So gyms can have an exercise class indoors with only 6 in attendance but pubs can go on as before.
    Seems totally outta kilter.
    Wonder if a gym with a little cafe shop can just open as per restaurant guidelines so they can have more people?

    Is it just me or did that article have a "your virus screwed up the world but by all means enjoy your massive party, lads" tone to it?

    MM getting lots of credit in my whatsapp group this evening.

    He’s leveling with the people and seems more on top of his brief.

    I was overly critical early doors with him. Head and shoulders over the last clown to hold the office.

    Honorable mention to Eamon Ryan too. He has steadied himself after that below the belt ambush from Catherine Martin which she ended up losing

    Was hoping someone would ask where's Leo

    Have a holiday at home, but avoid hotels, campsites, areas with more than 5 people, if you're in a caravan or large tent don't invite anyone from coming over... don't go to the pub and don't bring anyone over 70..

    All totally ignored the question has there been many clusters or cases with outdoor sports in recent weeks?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 2,980 ✭✭✭s1ippy


    I'm playing a meat plant drinking game.

    An incredibly sobering experience.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,136 ✭✭✭✭is_that_so


    Just to be clear as well, we still have no restrictions on inward travel, nor testing of people coming in.



    But let’s tell all the old people who have been restricting their movements to keep restricting their movements
    It's a minor element in cases at present, clusters and community spread are a much bigger risk. You also can't just announce something like that on a Tuesday evening briefing.

    Leo is probably somewhere with his feet up and a whiskey, laughing his arse off at the car crash. I'd say MM is not loving being Taoiseach now...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,923 ✭✭✭Bananaleaf


    I'm seeing a breakdown of cases by age and county but no stats on how many of the 190 were CT

    Anyone know?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 359 ✭✭The Unbearables

    I'm not "doing" anything.

    This is my opinions sorry.
