Banker Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 1 hour ago, CallMeCurious said: Just heard numpty Bill of Beach Buddies whining on the radio about Amenity Centre being closed. FFS does he not get about "Non-essential journeys" and "Stay at Home"? Or could it just be a self-promoting expert getting exposure so we don't forget he is an important person as usual? At the risk of hypocrisy reminds me of the phrase "Likes the sound of his own voice" (OK rant over) Well I agree with him, no need for them to be closed, no one gets within 10m of anyone with the barriers separating skips &certainly not staff. Getting rid of rubbish could be classed as essential, what about all garden waste? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annoymouse Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 23 minutes ago, John Wright said: I also spoke, last week, with a couple of advocates, I bumped into in Court on the Monday, who have represented defendants sentenced to custody for breaches in lock downs 1 and 2. The practical reasoning for not appealing seems to be that there wouldn’t be an appeal hearing within the period of the sentence. Forgive my ignorance but even if they can’t do an appeal hearing due to the time frame, I assume there will be a option to ge convictions overturned? The likes of those 5 ‘key worker’ welders who didn’t understand the rules, much like the steam packet worker? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The likes of those 5 ‘key worker’ welders who didn’t understand the rules, much like the steam packet worker? Two separate things. Two different tests. Most of them pleaded guilty. Not impossible to appeal conviction. But very difficult. The private plane false details guy didn’t appeal. When his lawyer and AG’s realised they legislation hadn’t been in force they used a different procedure. Not aware that any of the other convictions would have grounds of appeal. Im aware of only one not guilty plea. That was by Marcia Brabb. Still not heard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially when construction is working as where do they think builders are going to dump stuff? BUT I don’t think clearing shit off a beach is essential work to be honest so why is it an issue?

If this lockdown lasts 6/7 weeks there’s going to be a lot of garden waste etc and impractical to have everyone paying someone to collect it continuously. Personally doesn’t impact me as I have a large garden and compost heap 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the safety rules already being practised there is no reason for the continued closure of the amenity sites. They coped extremely well last year in first lockdown. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Wright Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 42 minutes ago, CowMan said: Whatever the reasons the current non reporting is odd given last time almost every time someone was chucked in prison it was reported. This time around that clearly hasn’t been the case so far given that John Wright has confirmed that many arrests and court appearances have actually happened. It’s odd that such events were deemed highly newsworthy last time round but not newsworthy this time - for whatever reason. I haven’t said, either, that custody was busy with lockdown breaches. Just that it was busy. There’s not been news of any court appearances, or convictions, for anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nom de plume Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Is there a resource anywhere that we can establish the ages of those currently admitted to Nobles with the virus? Or does anybody have this information? TIA. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To the commercial waste disposal places where people who are being paid to work on a house, do gardening or any business take their waste and which are still open. No one being paid for a service should be using the ameniety sites anyway. If these places weren't open as normal then no builder, gardener, shop etc would be open. The ameniety site are for the general public, no people being paid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, they should be open, and clearing shit off a beach can be socially distanced so no harm really. Kerbside recycling has been suspended, yet bin collections haven't. So to get rid of recycling, you have to take it to one of the recycling points if you can't store it. Just inconsistent without any apparent logic. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
