But if it’s not mandatory there’s no support payments It’s an almost perfect solution really. All those who want lockdown and can afford to have a lockdown can have a lockdown, and the rest of us can just crack on just like we’ve been doing all week.

They got on with life and introduced measures in restaurants and bars to ensure safe distances from groups. This is where IOM Gov simply fail to realise the damages their decisions cause to parts of the Island economy. It would be perfectly practical and reasonable for HQ to announce that these venues can remain open for now subject to additional measures and table separations. Instead he faffed. Pubs and restaurants in the uk spent thousands to make themselves safer/compliant and the first thing the government done was shut those places so it makes you ask what was the point? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2112 Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 I think Manx Radio the Nations Propaganda Mouthpiece is really taking the piss out of HRH The Chief Minister, Ashie and Henny Hen. The first record played after the end of the press conference- Genesis - Land of Confusion! Sums it up! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Non-Believer Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Pubs seem to closing voluntarily...4pm and 6pm depending whose they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in this instance, Dr Ewart said they were following their pathway for dealing with cases in the presser. It's absolute BS. If they were, they wouldn't even be entertaining a lockdown (HQ said they hadn't ruled it out), they should be following the steps to reduce spread with minimal economic and public health impact. That starts with social distancing and advised face coverings. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banker Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Well that must rank as one of the worst conferences so far and there’s been done really bad one!!! Kept mentioning Guernsey dance festival FFS! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the stinking enigma Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Farce-wise that was top 3 all time for me. What is this daya of which they speak? We need to wait for the data tomorrow. It's all about the data. The liverpool genomics place must be working overtime tonight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howie wouldn't even recommend one and suggested it was down to personal choice. It's far better to act proportionately to minimise risk, without getting us hunkered down, than to give wishy washy lockdown-esque advice. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the stinking enigma Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Those questions should last a bit longer really. Within three quarters of an hour howie would confess to murdering the chambermaid and burying her body under the patio.

You can't blame them really, nobody wants to run the pub that becomes known as the superspreader open when all the others shut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2112 Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 ....... and another thing, I wish HRH The Chief Minister and Ashie would stop their constant dick waving and comments about Guernseys handling of the pandemic. No crown dependencies have outshone themselves with glory, mistakes have been made, unfortunately we are unable to admit our mistakes, coz we’re perfection personified. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the stinking enigma Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Ashie would have no qualms passing the death sentence on a person whom he knew 100% was innocent, not only that, he'd even have the gall to patronise them while doing so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
