    I reckon end of September early October, who knows though, suppose it's dependent on variation v number of double doses.

    They won’t lift restrictions in autumn with flu on the horizon, I don’t think we will have anything like a normal life until 2023 if I’m being brutally honest.

    Why ? Flu has been here forever, you can get a jab for that as well.

    My fear is theyll claim that it will be a bad flu year, and that, coupled with Covid, could overrun the health service.

    Nowt to do with season tickets but I hope Boris lifts the restrictions on the 21st. ICU admissions are virtually zero, hospitalisations are less than 10k.....I can see normality just around the corner.


    On a side note, I think there will be riots if he delays it. Just my opinion like.

    I know a hell of a lot of people who are struggling mentally and many others struggling financially, from my experience the people I know who are struggling for money are taxi drivers and self employed caterers. Things like music festivals, full theatres, full footy stadiums ... important for so many other industries. I’m a major pessimist and I really hope I’m wrong but I think this will go on for months on end.

    I do agree with slowing things down a bit until more are vaccinated, best way on moving forward, another upsurge in hospital cases will result in further restrictions adding on to a longer time period of misery before normality. The way it's going up presently should be met with caution.

    I think we will have another month of restrictions. Understand everyone including my own frustrations, lets look at it a positive way, its been crap & difficult for a year & half, restrictions for another month is nowt, gets another month of the vacine done & fingers crossed death rate doesnt rise the once & for all we can 100% comfortably lift the lot in July, summer at home for most, continue to limit those coming in then full crowds come opening day& the season as top up jabs will be thrown in the mix

    Give me that in return for another month as we are & ill take it. Slowly slowly catchy monkey stage unfortunately, caution because its got to be once lifted dont ho back. Possible apart from areas that refuse to have the jab & have local spikes

    This could've all been done and dusted if the endless Indian flights had been stopped when the situation there was obviously critical.

    Aye should have been shut down the same time as Pakistan and Bangladesh, even though it would have probably only delayed the delta variants arrival here, it would probs have got in from someone coming back off holiday etc. Government should have banned holidays abroad months ago, everyone would have known where they stood. I do appreciate though, that from a Government perspective the whole pandemic has been a case of incredibly difficult decisions.

    Haven't we been here before with the 170k flights from Wuhan? Or am I just being a "legal purist"? :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Cheers

    I'm just done it with it all now. Seeing 18000 people at the cricket with no masks, getting pissed in their seats, stacking pint glasses up and having a right laugh in the sun has pissed me off about the whole lockdown ****e and it's also annoyed the **** out me knowing that football fans are treated so differently and that sort of thing would never be tolerated in a footy stadium. The cricket commentators were even saying how fantastic it was that the fans were doing it. (and it was btw, it's the fact that there is inequality in how different groups are treated)

    If it's extended for another month or so without any further restrictions, it's a full on race between vaccinations administered and growing infections. Everyone can see the infection rate climbing, my fear is the 60% more infectious delta variant outruns the vaccine rollout and hospital admissions rise, it'll find it's way into the groups of unvaccinated.
