One of your better postings. (Excluding the right wing diatribe of the last sentence). From what I pick up is that it is fatal for about 3% of the general population ,who get infected ..By general ,meaning without selection by age, medical condition, sex . That 20% of those infected need...

..so calling them the great unwashed is passe?

Yes but the self isolation bit is for the period wh Yes but the self isolation is in the eventually when you don't know you have the virus.. the Heisenberg cat phase. If on day 10 you turn green etc, then you are no longer a potential but a certified certainty. Your fellow house guest moves up...

Hang on, the assumption is that the person self isolating does not have the virus,but may have been in contact with someone who had. Consequently it is 14 days since that person had contact that is counted. If there are other people in the premises who did not have direct contact with the...

.. i preferred it when the word was bitcher. It made more sense

Lets make it simple.. its all anti-Semitic ,

While we are still EU members, duty paid in any state remains the only duty payable as a consumable. However I was referring to tankers loaded with cargos of the stuff. It would be legal to pump that green stuff out into a pipe line in the RoI ,and transfer it into a tank ,still on the RoI...

Welcome to border country!. In general a lorry filled with DERV, is not being stopped on Concession roads . Customs and Revenue are brave but not stupid. So technically illegal is OK in this narrow zone . Once they are clearly either side ..For instance I live about 10 minutes drive from the...

There were other voices in this discussion, suggesting problems with local authorities etc.

Sorry, I don't wear the argument about it being difficult to determine legitimate usage. The various tractor manufacturers provide such figures as a matter of course, and the agricultural standards organisations have this data. The same would be true for marine and fishing and professional...

The situation is actually very complex. .. possession of green diesel in NI would be illegal,as would red diesel south. Now the washing process with the acids yields the transparent liquid. However in the case of the green, there are now invisible markers ,so if the fuel is dipped, it will show...

There is no reason why legitimate use of Diesel by these authorities would not just get a paper trail rebate. It need only be a VAT return entry. Incidentally our RoI Red Diesel is or was Green Diesel ..(why I wonder?).

Believe it or not this is a move I applaud. Removing the rebate removes the market for fuel washing . Now farmers and other users should still be entitled to rebates ..but only on quantities actually consumed . It is relatively easy to do this in the financial accounts. In my part of the...

Yours may be, but my team aren't...

There are 500 million people in the EU so yes a full treaty could be done in the time available. The treaty and first Irish Constitution was negotiated between February 1922 and October 1922. And passed and agreed by both the Irish Dail, and the UK parliament, within that time frame. ..And...

Insure you are wearing your Hazmat ..we wouldn't want to miss your hyperbole

The only problem with that scenario..and it is plausible, is the comment by the Jeff Goldblum character in Jurrasic Park... Life finds a way .. These pesky viruses mutate.

Hopefully it will have repercussions for illegal ebikes. That is the proximate and proportional response.

I would expect that these organisations have automated text scanning software reading almost everything published on the web in these user forums. Where other than an obscure little publication dealing with minority interests would one place covert messages?.

In the care home my mother resided for the two years before her death, there was a grand old woman ,of old Ascendancy stock.. who always had a glass of wine provided with her meal. A few years previous to her death, my mother would come to us for the Christmas season. I would give her a cup of...
