It's probably cheaper to lay the construction sector off than have them continuing to make astronomical fuck-ups on the Promenade... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has been repeatedly borne out absolutely everywhere in the world. As a lockdown has now been imposed it may as well be done properly. Shut down to open up. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why punish some sectors and give others a license to print money and gain financial from a situation that is screwing others over for years to come? Do it properly or don't do it at all.

He is now saying we aren't utilising full testing capacity because we don't have the system in place to book the tests. Like all CS best practice, that was in triplicate.

That’s a bit overkill you can’t just take everyone’s livelihood off them unnecessarily. The only people in construction I’ve seen breaking the rules were the teams working for the DOI at about 3 sites yesterday. Not unlike the SPC situation really. We don’t have to do all that fussy shit like wearing masks or keeping 2M apart because we work for government. The private employers in contrast seem to have been responsible across the board and brought in proper monitoring and policies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it’s annoying but I’m afraid it’s not just Minister Ashford, a large proportion of the population do it. I find the Corona virus more annoying though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is totally fed up about it as its costing him thousands and then Hettie says no sign of building workers spreading it . You can see how he's pissed about it all . Is it not classed as essential infrastructure? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uhtred Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 All in all the current, and as yet still burgeoning shitshow, illustrates that previously our glorious leaders were not organised, competent and effective. They were simply bloody lucky. Soon Quayle’s competition with the Channel Islands...’Ooooh..look how much better we are than Guernsey’ will have to be spun as...’Ooooh..at least we’re not as shit as the English’. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please feel free to put me on block rather than post rage filled bordering incoherent responses. I don’t really like dealing with crazies. I’ve reported one of the incidents to the DOI so let’s see what happens. Edited March 5, 2021 by CowMan Typo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
