    so you think a virus will take alledged cultural norms into account or are you just trying to get a dig in by inferring NI has more in common with the British? Pretty pathetic.

    They've not. An all island one makes the most sense. Maybe you have a stance on it?

    At the risk of having a post thanked again by the fine gael lad,Foster can't control Sammy and there's half the population of the north being irresponsible
    Sames happening in the south now
    If we don't cop on we are all going to be fooked economically or dead
    No matter what anyone thinks of anyone else,that message needs getting across
    At the risk of losing the fine gael lads thanks vote,SF with the exception of that funeral are and have been very good with the message

    Despite all the deflections, look over there at themuns, this is pretty much how it was. 'Lurching'.

    Nobody is the answer there, TV.

    Unless as a taxpayer you want to be cleaned out.

    Whats the problem with pubs being open?
    Personal responsibility stops covid,not anything else
    The only reason why pubs are singled out and other freedoms hindered is because of already widespread failures in Personal responsibility causing covid surges leading to drastic blunt instrument decisions having to be taken to enforce social distancing
    No other reason

    There are quite a few people in Sinn Féin clued in enough to be involved in government
    There are people less so
    No different in that respect to any other party

    Numbers in the North are still a big cause for concern.

    It seems that the differences between the two sectarian parties are leading to indecision. Time they both got their act together, put their world views aside and got on with sorting out the country they actually lead.

    Sadly if we could rely on personal responsibility the pubs would be open but no-one would be in them - bar Mary Lou and Dessie Ellis.

    Cant think of a single member of Sinn Fein I would trust to send down to Tescos for a club orange and a kit kat

    Are you not concerned about our rising numbers blanch - our health experts most certainly are.
    "The numbers being reported today and over the past week represent a significant escalation in the profile of Covid-19 in Ireland.

    Of course I am, but the numbers up North are at record levels, and seem out of control. Some stabilisation down here, but that won’t last if the North continues on its current path.

    They'll do what Offally, Laois Kildare, Donegal and Dublin had to do...tighten restrictions because those places dropped their guard and risked infecting the places around them.

    Level five being recommended for the whole country here.

    Fecking ridiculous management. Why are NPHET releasing that info. The country will go into panic tomorrow bulk buying. NPHET should make the recommendation to government then release the cabinets decision. Crazy.

    I kind of seems like NPHET are trying to force the government's hand.

    They're at it already.
    I was in Dunnes Longford yesterday with herself, as bad as Xmas in there.
    I think we are still OK for toilet roll.

    It's an incredibly unfair thing to do to people. Absolutely no need for NPHET to realease that ahead of a cabinet meeting. Chaos again.

    The site must have Covid. Has it been tested?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 838 ✭✭✭The_Brood


    At this point the situation is so bad, it has reached the point where no matter what the government do, if the people accept this and do as they are told, then I guess we collectively deserve the doom that it will bring. Humanity fully deserves the doom it is bringing upon itself by destroying the planet, and this country deserves its own doom if it doesn't rise up and throw these absolute clowns out onto the streets. There is no more excuse.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,365 ✭✭✭✭McMurphy


    Bishop making it sound 3 X times worse than it likely is. :pac:

    If Fianna Fail continue with wanting to follow NPHET advice, Fine Gael might walk out of government.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 788 ✭✭✭Nobotty


    I agree with a full lockdown
    Too many people have squandered the level 2 nirvana by just not washing hands and social distancing and behaving as if its gone
    Question is will the government have the balls to implement level 5
    No point implementing it unless they bring back the €350 etc
    Its been a costly complacency

    Seems its similar here, Leo and Mícheál need go put their views aside and get on with sorting the country they lead
