"Infections are down, fact."... Needs to be qualified by REPORTED. Just to indicate what I mean . I had occasion to attend Hospital procedure last week. This involves a 60 mile trip each way. On arrival I had to fill up a questionnaire. Only one question on it required a real yes no answer...

The point we differ on is that I dispute whether those would have extremely mild symptoms ever really "got it". And if there symptoms are so mild whether they even evoked an immune response. I have pointed out a few times that getting tested after the event for specific antibodies , is not in...

.. not for me it isn't. Its a done deal, ..and we will just ignore and carry one. Note the posturing of Downing Street today in regards to the NI protocol, will all be part of an on going phony war. The Tories will pretend to be doing something , in order to keep the DUP on side until the next...

The UK Government over the last 20 months have been adherents to the philosophy of Robert Frost.. at at every fork in the road, have taken the road less traveled and unfortunately that has made all the difference.

"we are bound to bump into someone infectious sooner or later." .. Not likely as they Are tootling over on the Ferries to Belfast and down to us. NI certified infection rates are 3 times ours and we are climbing those charts.

The answer given in that Hansard comment was so bizarre, that I am looking for ways in which it might make sense. Perhaps a comparative study between two vaccine regimes,both previously approved?. It is often the case that a Minister / Department will have extra information,furnished by the MP...

I am looking forward to many more of these very high speed scooters being made available... Unlike the cadavers from car accidents, where the steering wheel damages retrieval of heart and lungs, , they should be relatively unscathed from these.

I agree with you on both counts. Which is why I believe they will be legalised. Now whatever about ones capable of excess of 15 mph being got at as motorcycles , the smaller ones will have a future.

Did I just manage to dodge a particularly big bullet?

Oyster.. with respect ,I don't insult people I respect.

I could see the hydrogen tank fuel cell as being the add in extra. .. Say available from those nationwide tool hire companies. Say as a roof rack extra, trickle feeding the lithium battery. Even flecc could then travel down to Cornwall in his leaf. Tootle around for his holliers and then...

Jolly sporting of you.. . Fair play for Viruses, why were Viruses not given free reign before? Highly discriminatory if you ask me, .. But this pro life movement is not enough, we need to ban bleach and let the Bacteria off the leash.

Sorry flecc. Even you cannot see this one. I have skin in this game, I and my 4 million countrymen, agreed a GFA and we changed our Constitution to even facilitate that. The UK from London signed off on certain principles. They signed international Treaties on this basis. It doesn't get more...
