    In the very early days we tried to limit the spread rather than go for herd immunity.

    Unfortunately the slow initial response by Boris and HM Govt meant we had too many individuals bringing in infection for the track and trace resources to deal with and it was at that point that HM Govt abandoned attempts to limit the spread of the virus and go for Herd Immunity.

    After this is was the modelling predictions of the number of deaths from the likes of Prof Ferguson at Imperial College that forced Boris to enter lockdown (even then only after a crucial week of inaction).

    Even so, after the failure of the initial attempts at isolating cases to halt viral transmission, herd immunity was the only de facto outcome - whether by infection or vaccination.

    That again was always going to happen. A consequence of society deciding over the last few years that everyone had a right to be a dickhead to everyone else.

    How is it wishy washy ?

    We were encouraged to choose diesel were we not ?
    Now it is the devils fuel even with egr valves and particulate filters.
    It is getting phased out.
    Regardless of new technology.
    We are getting taxed to death in the name of climate change.
    Plastic bags 10p for instance.
    Why not just ban them. ?
    Fuel tax lol, tell that to Jeff bezos and Dick Branson when they burn billions of tons of fuel in their giant dildos whilst tax evading.

    Here's an example of hypocrisy for you.
    Milan council Italy banned the use of 2 stroke scooters for "environmental reasons" yet the air conditioning units in their rental accommodations were in need of service/replacement and pumping out more Co2 than the scooters.

    Here's a little overview of aircon units ;)

    Thankfully I can still ride my lambretta's here (for now)
    And I like to drive my 3 ltr 6 cylinder like I've stole it :p :emoticon-0172-mooni :emoticon-0173-middl

    Fùck the tree huggers.


    Edited because I forgot to hoy the link up.

    Relaxing the rules at this point in the vaccine rollout/at this level of immunity creates the perfect conditions for virus mutation according to this article.

    It's not in a virus' best interest to kill its host. Most if not all virus' mutate to become more transmissible, but less deadly.

    Headline says unvaccinated make up most deaths (which I think is the case) In the middle of the article it says that Public Health say that '' more vaccinated people are dying than the unjabbed'' Journalists can't even write things properly.

    and there are thousands who have not been inoculated, some with advanced Respiratory diseases who cannot be jabbed, and people coming from regions who have no injection programme, any ideas on how to cheer up the disappointed would be appreciated

    Tower Hamlets MP Apsana Begum to face trial over housing fraud charges
    Tower Hamlets MP Apsana Begum to face trial over housing fraud charges

    Poplar and Limehouse MP Apsana Begum appeared in court today over accusations she ‘jumped the queue’ to get a council house.

    At Westminster Magistrate’s Court today, the Labour MP pleaded not guilty to three counts of fraud.

    Prosecutors say she applied to join Tower Hamlet’s social housing register in 2011 because of her “overcrowded accommodation” – but failed to notify them when she moved house three times afterwards.

    Tower Hamlets council brought the case to court after an investigation earlier this year, alleging that housing her cost it £63,928 in rent.

    The three similar counts of fraud relate to separate periods between January 2013 and March 2016, and allege Begum intended to “make a gain, namely social housing… for [her]self”.

    In a statement released when she was charged in late October, Begum, 30, said she “vigorously contests these malicious and false allegations.”

    She was one of 26 new Labour MPs elected in 2019, winning the Poplar and Limehouse seat with a majority of nearly 30,000. A supporter of former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn and Momentum, she has spoken in Parliament about the impact of coronavirus on ethnic minorities and sits on the Commons education committee.

    She was allowed to withhold her address from open court because of security reasons.

    This is HIAG. A poster on here who was a massive Covid denier sucked in by conspiracy theorists. He refused the vaccines.

    He died at home 8 days after making this video.
