      What's especially crap is apparently from my mum who works in education, parents are not testing their kids because it's only illegal to go into school when they've tested positive (and the quick one has a 30% false positive so extra insensitive to just not) apparently cases shot up in the school right before Christmas as that's when they started testing as a 2 week isolation wouldn't affect them as much during the holidays

      At my school, were in a bubble of 84, we have 3 rooms to prevent contamination, regular rigorous cleaning, compulsory masks, scheduled handwashing, reduced curriculum for subjects such as PE, no parents evenings etc etc, to me, that sounds a lot safer than somewhere like a pub where these groups of 6 can meet, where there are no masks, little social distancing, people are drunk and there are different sets of people all the time. In my school we've had something like 3 or 4 cases since September. It's not as bad as people are making it out to be and we deserve a fair chance at exams and an education, I agree primary schools shouldn't be open but when you're in an exam year it's a very different story

      I am glad I am in Western Australia, we have even done better than NZ but sadly get lumped in with the rest of Australia, which compared to the rest of the world isn’t so bad, but it’s annoying having the east coast complain about McGowans restrictions/borders and yet we haven’t had a second wave. I know some of it is just luck, but it’s also the quick border restrictions when another state shows cases plus very strict borders, regardless of how the federal government keeps fucking it up(we have had several disease ships come into port after McGowan asked for a closed border, but our border controls thankfully have caught them all).

    The book for an emergency part reminded me. Today i saw a poor old man trying to book an eye test for the 5th time after having tried a while before. They refused to let him into the reception room while it was pissing down raining because of social distancing despite having more than enough room within and tolled him he needed to book online, sending him home again. He explained how he cant access the internet and his calls are being declined or is told to book through the website.
    Companies need to get their shit together with all this booking bullshit. The woman speaking to him legit tried to guilt trip him, telling him that "Times are hard". He is at the age most at risk and this company is really telling him they have it hard???

      That I don’t have a definitive answer too, I would say myself, many years, probably back to the 60’s, certainly the 70’s. Would I would say from fact is that whatever projects the British government have planed over the last 20 years, they have got their figures drastically wrong, let’s just look at one example HS1 - how much was that originally costed? Now look at it 3 or was it 4 times over budget at last count! and this is the same for many many government projects; in a nutshell ministers and politicians are not qualified project managers and have no idea how to lay out the foundations (project charter), plan, execute, control and monitor and end a project successfully.

    • @taffp4360
      @taffp4360 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      No party in particular, as I said, all parties and all politicians, I believe all voted into power past and present should take blame and more importantly, and sadly, politicians are not held accountable or should I say held properly accountable. Let me give you an example, if an employee of an organisation does whatever to require being sacked (legitimate - not managed out) does this happen to a position? Are they then band from holding or standing again? They should be! Or when politicians spend tax payers money and get it wrong, what happens then? if a business person get a financial decision wrong, they may lose their business along with the various additional effects. What penalties does a politician pay when they waste tax payers money?
