You obviously believe the measures are permanent. Can you explain why in simple English without a YouTube video, online article or tweet in sight?
Do you think there's any possibility that the measures are permanent? Many ostensibly temporary measures have ended up being permanent. Do you think the idea of the measures being permanent should be discussed?

Yes, it's not like Facebook or Google ever tracked anybody before Covid came along.
Shur they'll hardly need facial recognition if you need a phone with a covid pass on it to leave the gaff..
Maybe all these conspiracy theorists are all paid shills to convince gullible people not to wear masks so that the government can use facial recognition on them.
It makes me laugh when I hear about masks being made permanent. Surely that goes against just about every nefarious social control out there? What good are security and facial recognition cameras if people are going around with masks on them? The easiest people to identify these days, when there's anti-social behaviour going on, are the anti-maskers.
OK. So what's the real reason for masks to be permanent?
I too would also like to see your support for your claim.
I'm sure you have the data to back up this ridiculous claim?
"more people died from missed hospital appointments than from covid"
At this stage. Anyone who thinks the government cares about their health is too far gone to save
more people died from missed hospital appointments than from covid
this forum has become a spoiler alert
"they were already supposed to be gone".
What a stupid statement to make with a straight face.
Are we talking about a sunset? Or a Swiss train?
No, we're talking about a virus. A widespread, evolving, dangerous virus. Thats one variable. We're talking about misinformation and disinformation and vaccine hesistancy. Thats another variable. We're talking about the development of the vaccines and their trials and their efficacy in different populations, yet another few variables.
Anyone with an ounce of reason and common sense can look at this pandemic and see its unpredictable, its elusive and it certainly doesn't follow anyone elses plan for it.
The Government had to make projections, a) to plan a strategy and b) to maintain hope and balance. There were never any promises or guarantees, just priorities and ambitions.
Nothing mattered more than keeping the health service from collapsing and thankfully it didn't - at least not so far. But thats no thanks to the brand of pea-brained w@nkers who would tell you black was white and that restrictions are permanent and that vaccines are dangerous.
Two people I know, a business owner in his early 60s and a chef, woman aged 49 won't touch the vaccine because they have come to believe the lies, despite the evidence (the real evidence) and the hundreds of millions who have received theirs without issue (including dozens they know personally). I would never have believed it of them, they are intelligent adults, and yet....
This disease was dangerous, but not half as dangerous as stupidity and irresponsibility.
A lot of the justification for restrictions has been that if it saves even one life then it is worth it.
Unless our leaders are prepared to eventually say no to such hysterical nonsense, then some form of restrictions will remain in place.
It’s certainly starting to look like masks and Covid certs will be here for considerably longer. They were already supposed to be gone.
Lol. Why are you going to "come to it later"?
You've been repeatedly asked the same question and you've avoided it every time.
It's been months and now you're saying you only just now heard a reason for it?
I assume that since you read it on Twitter by some crank you immediately swallowed it as true or immediately changed your entire belief because you liked it more.
I also suspect that you've been avoiding the question specifically because you aren't able to provide an answer to it. This really silly and childish tactic of "I'll get it later" is just more delaying and avoiding so you don't have to admit you can't answer it.
It's very pathetic and very funny you think you're fooling people.
No no, you've been posting here for months without answering the question so why not try answering it now? You can change it later if you wish but what has pushed you to post here and make these claims for so long? What was/is the reason?
I'll come to that later. I read another hypothesis the other day.
Im not turning on Gript. Okay, you mean the 'may' bit. I get you now. I don't agree that it's 'may be', but that doesn't mean I'm turning on Gript. I'm interpreting his words differently is all.
No turning on Gript. Why are you disagreeing with it?
No, it really isn't
Also you keep avoiding this part
you STILL haven't explained why they would be permanent, what's the nefarious reason (in your mind) that they would need them to be permanent?
I may have misread your post. Did you mean "turning to Gript". You wrote "turning on Gript", but I figured you meant "turning to Gript".
Are you calling Gript msm? When did that happen.
"Or not" is "permanent".
So he hasn't used the word permanent.
These measures may be needed in future for covid or whatever the next pandemic is.
But you STILL haven't explained why they would be permanent, what's the nefarious reason (in your mind) that they would need them to be permanent?
Well, when the msm ignores it then what do you expect people to do?
"These are exceptional measures, whether they're temporary or not."
His actual quote, show me where he uses the word permanent.
"He added that the government wanted to extend the emergency power “for a period of three months, without any regulations providing for restrictions on the indoor hospitality sector being imposed…"
Even Gript said "may be" in the headline.
When the conspiracists start to turn on Gript things are desperate.
Donnelly is saying it too: https://gript.ie/donnelly-hints-covid-power-extension-may-be-permanent/
Donnelly said they were last month: https://gript.ie/donnelly-hints-covid-power-extension-may-be-permanent/
and before the predictable Gript bashing (a mentality that is a consequence of there being no alternative media in Ireland) starts, there is a video in the article of him saying it.
LOL
you need to look up the definition of permanent
No, you're the only one saying that, we'll you and other conspiracy theorists who can't explain why they would be permanent.
