Exactly. People have to cop on and take personal responsibility. Simples.

NPHET advise the government. The government said they knew better and we are exactly where NPHET advised the government we would be.
But the party briefing is 'keep blaming the people'.

24 people came to Ireland on flights from London with coronavirus in this month.

Imagine that testing and tracing we were promised at the start of the pandemic was set up at the airports. Another failure from the chaos of clowns

Er, they were identified and are isolating. Soooo.... where’s the failure? Hmmm?

“As we’ve said for many weeks we achieved the best or second best in Europe in terms of our 14-day incidence, but in terms of our deterioration over the past week, we’re deteriorating at a more rapid pace in seven days than any other country in Europe, so we won’t hold this position for long,”

"Sinn Féin’s Lynn Boylan said: “Instead of a flight ban......."

Sinn Fein originally supported the DUP approach of rejecting a flight ban, that was less than three days ago. Own the u-turn.

Hilarious to see, but off-topic, so I will leave it there.

Sinn Feins policy is now set by a Single Senator. Learn sonething new every day

Everything I posted is true. You ignore it scrambling to try find something contrary. Give it up it's embarrassing.

Do you LOL at Mrs. Brown's Boys?

Since when does a Senator set party policy? She was giving her opinion blanch.
An opinion that wasn't ruling out a flight ban, but stressing the importance of getting the basics right.

You are persisting in spreading that blarney.
SF want an all island approach. You know this. The DUP want more laxed restrictions for the Christmas, SF do not. You know this too. Dishonest spin.

Someone in the cabinet has tested positive for Covid.

It's the agriculture chap. That post is like the Spinal Tap drummer ffs

Of course not, somehow our government is massively incompetent to be able to keep deaths from Covid at half the rate of the North, and Sinn Fein would be better able to manage the crisis.

I am beginning to think some of these posters are satirists.

You are projecting a different future to historic voting trends based on a hope, a wish and a prayer that FF and FG in coalition means an end to their hold on government.

It’s an opinion, but it is based on wishful thinking rather than facts. The numbers show that FF and FG together could become the permanent government because no party trusts Sinn Fein. That is an opinion based on the evidence of the election result and the subsequent attempts at government formation together with the evidence of SinnFein failure to gain the trust of parties in the North.

Blanch, I'm not mystic Meg. Yes, I'm giving my hopes for the future based on them partnering up. That's allowed I believe.

It is. Top marks. Yes, I do have no facts for the future. You're quite right. If you can find anyone with 'facts' about the future I've a bridge I'd like to sell you.

Fundamentally wrong. The government as recently as yesterday 'restricted' some activity and allowed other activity.

As usual you are waffling and blaming the people, most of whom are doing their best.

Has Leo really got this hold on the Shinners?

So you choose to ignore the valid criticism and cite 'shinners'

Nobotty

I suppose he is from the county with consistently the highest covid numbers in the State and he was out in Brussels last week
The only way to get it is to lapse your guidelines following or someone on the plane had it within 2 metres of him
That plane would have been next to empty
So its another case of rules for thee but not for me IMO

Also this ,stay in your bed if you came here since Dec 11th
Laughable

Funny, you are over on another thread patting the government on the back for 'managing the pandemic' well.
Yet here we are precisely where NPHET said we would be if the government didn't heed their advice on 'managing the pandemic'.

All over the shop Mary.

The government can only advise. It’s up to each and every one of us to use a bit of cop on and mind ourselves. You know, practice personal responsibility. Stop blaming everyone else for our behavior.

It looks like the 4th Agriculture Minister in this chaotic government has tested positive for Covid.
That ministry position has really cursed FFG.

It's always govts fault, no one is, responsible for their own actions.
How's things in NI, is that a savage indictment of SF?

We had the lowest rate of covid in the EU up until a few days ago and internationally were considered to be doing well.

NPHET are going to give advice purely based on public health as that's their remit, it's the governments job to weigh that up against other considerations then, as that's their remit. They would be equally criticised if they were just doing everything NPHET said.

Edit: also, I noticed you have gone back to edit the FACTS now

And the government got it wrong. They tried to ignore the advice before, were forced to heed it and then made the same mistake again.
