Killer virus won’t take break over Christmas
what is wrong with people? Is a roast dinner ( xmas) really worth the risk? The virus isnt going to take a five day break! Would u really take the risk of possibly giving mam/ dad gran/ grandad aunty/ uncle bro/ sis or beloved friends a life threatening condition – cos that’s the reality of it all! Enjoy ur immediate ‘ bubble’ stay safe nd look fwd to that cuddle which will come! robtin
If the lock down is eased in December for Christmas it will be a mistake and once again the situation will worsen as a result – give people an inch and they will in most cases take a yard especially at Christmas time. Geo. Durham
This gov’ playin footloose with folks health. So hav 5 days with family/ friends at xmas, endure 25 days of lockdown later. Watch virus rates skyrocket as a result. angst
So a few million vaccines may be ready in a couple of weeks? That’s London sorted then! James Cameron Mcewan, Dumfries
just found your editorial on Starmer, regarding his dealings with Corbyn. All I can say is – SPOT ON. Brilliant to see you giving Labour a hammering but I still feel the country should be fighting Covid 19 TOGETHER not scoring political points.
How amusing it is to see Dominic Cummings in the Beano, perhaps they could find a place for ex PM David Cameron as the Invisible Man who disapeared straight after losing our 2016 Brexit referendum after promising to deliver a leave or remain vote. Tod
my gast is flabbered. Wee krankie wants to build a memorial remembering the covid deaths in scotland. All political parties in holyrood shud hang their head in shame. Along with doctors who discharged the elderly into care homes knowing these patients displayed covid. Holyroods total denial they were not aware of this slaughter is like every catastrophic failure of voters here, hidden. Don’t waste the sand needed to build a monument, dump a truckload at various hosps and mps’ offices and they can stick their heads in it, as they always do. Posturing idiots. Lily the pink
Boris said the SNP are using devolution to break up the UK. So SNP elected by the scottish people let the Scottish people have their rightful referendum and that will settle it. Kenny Paisley
Vaccine. DS says we’re all crying out for injections. But haven’t many people already said they would refuse to have one? Electric cars. Not fair to charge for using the roads. But how would you recommend that we make up for the lost revenue?
Re the ban on diesel and petrol cars in 2030. Can you see the petroleum industry taking it sitting down? Me neither. tree huggers got way over electrc cars, but we need 7 new nuclear power stations and companies can charge anything for power, no alternative to use, we will be stuffed by them.
Anyone who cannot afford an electric vehicle, fear not a cheaper version will be made availible, your choices are; 1, you can propel your car via. A windup elastic band. 2, the floor panal will be removed you can use your feet. 3, You will need 4aa. Batteries. 4, You can ask your wife to push.
Your ‘ place names impossible to pronounce’ was fascinating in today’s Star – the daftest name of all we always think is the girls name Siobhan – pronounced Sherborn!
