Like I said on the other thread, this government-wide opt-out (sorry, pilot) was most likely a clever wheeze to protect Michael Gove. It got out of hand because they'd not considered The Saj might take out the Prime Minister and Chancellor in one go.Taz said:

You're frankly an idiot when you try to tell people living here what our rules are. Pointless to engage with such a level of stupidity. I know I shouldn't waste my time with someone so pig-headed but it's just so irritating.HYUFD said:
The fact is nightclubs were allowed to reopen in Spain over a month ago, well before nightclubs have been allowed to reopen here which is not until midnight tonight. Spanish nightclubs were also allowed to reopen without Covid passports which were required for nightclub reopening in Austria for example.felix said:
I live here - they were never re-opened without restrictions. Here in Andalucía restrictions remained throughout wrt masks, capacity, dancing, etc, etc. The same applies to everything else I said. Whether the measures make sense or not the idea that all restrictions ended or anywhere near ended is utter bullshit. There remains a requirement at all times indoor and outdoors to wear mask on entering places or whenever social distancing is not possible. All staff wear masks at all times. You really need to learn to listen to people who live here before telling us what our rules are.HYUFD said:
Spain reopened nightclubs in June but because of rising cases amongst unvaccinated young people regions like Catalonia had to impose restrictions on them again.felix said:
Wrong - it's still a requirement to wear masks entering any restaurant or bar and there are indoor capacity limits. All public transport and all shops and commercial centres require masks at all times. Even in public outside you must have a mask to hand to put on whenever it is not possible to maintain social distance. Any idea that we're back to normal is utter and complete nonsense.HYUFD said:
Actually Austria is for the vaccinated, all Austrian bars, restaurants and nightclubs are already reopen for anyone with proof of vaccination without the need for social distancing or a facemask.Philip_Thompson said:

The case rate amongst young not fully vaccinated clubbers in the big UK cities is where the biggest problem is likely to be from next week when UK nightclubs are allowed to reopen restriction free without social distancing and without mandatory facemasks
However the case rate amongst not fully vaccinated young Spaniards surged, even if some restrictions remained in clubs and so Spain had to reverse course and shut its nightclubs again in many regions.
Thus if our nightclubs are reopened tonight without mandatory facemasks, without social distancing and without mandatory Covid passports (which I personally would have required) there is a risk of a surge in cases amongst young British people not yet fully vaccinated who go clubbing1 -

698 first vaccinations and 1,022 second vaccinations in Newham yesterday.
56.5% first doses and 36.5% both doses.
Yet we remain well below the national average in terms of cases - as others have said, the 800-1000 daily positive returns we were getting around Christmas and New Year (probably a huge underestimation of the actual number of cases) suggested we had a very bad six weeks of cases.0 -

In a parliamentary democracy you are absolutely entitled to take the view that scrutiny is done by the House of Commons, select committees, LOTO and voters. Boris has spotted that in general being cross examined by forensic specialists like Andrew Neil is no more required of him than it is of PB readers. Sad for those who enjoy the show, but very wise. The job of journalists is to make government look idiots; why, from their point of view, help them?NorthofStoke said:I think one problem for Boris is that he is building up a huge backlog of awkward questions that would make any interview difficult even done by an incompetent journalist. I don't see how he can escape scrutiny in the medium term and during a future GE. Given that plus other character indicators he may quit while ahead with a bit of long Covid/ ill health/ exhaustion as the excuse whilst still ahead in the polls.

In Denmark you can't enter a gym, or attend any organised indoor sport events without a Corona Passport. In the UK you've been able to attend a gym without a Covid passport.
In Denmark you need a Corona Passport to enter restraurants, cafes and bars. You don't in the UK. In Denmark all restaraunts, cafes and bars much close no later than 2am.
In Denmark for massages, haircuts and tattoos etc you must present a Covid Passport. You don't in the UK.
In Denmark you can't enter a museum, amusement park, cinema, venues, zoos, stadiums or other sport venues without a corona passport. You can in the UK.
In Denmark all discos and nightclubs are closed, they will be open tonight in the UK.
In Denmark its illegal to have indoor events and activities of more than 250 people, all such restrictions are being abolished in the UK.
In Denmark a face mask is legally required on public transport. Its not in the UK from tomorrow.
https://en.coronasmitte.dk/rules-and-regulations
They pretty much have the same restrictions the UK had in Stage 3 but with the Covid passport in addition too. They're not at UK Stage 4 restrictions even with the passport yet.
At midnight tonight drinkers in bars up and down the UK will be able to go from bars to nightclubs, they won't in Denmark.

Southwark starting to look dicey, I'd barricade the bridges just to be sure.stodge said:698 first vaccinations and 1,022 second vaccinations in Newham yesterday.
56.5% first doses and 36.5% both doses.
Yet we remain well below the national average in terms of cases - as others have said, the 800-1000 daily positive returns we were getting around Christmas and New Year (probably a huge underestimation of the actual number of cases) suggested we had a very bad six weeks of cases.0 -

In Denmark you can't enter a gym, or attend any organised indoor sport events without a Corona Passport. In the UK you've been able to attend a gym without a Covid passport.
In Denmark you need a Corona Passport to enter restraurants, cafes and bars. You don't in the UK. In Denmark all restaraunts, cafes and bars much close no later than 2am.
In Denmark for massages, haircuts and tattoos etc you must present a Covid Passport. You don't in the UK.
In Denmark you can't enter a museum, amusement park, cinema, venues, zoos, stadiums or other sport venues without a corona passport. You can in the UK.
In Denmark all discos and nightclubs are closed, they will be open tonight in the UK.
In Denmark its illegal to have indoor events and activities of more than 250 people, all such restrictions are being abolished in the UK.
In Denmark a face mask is legally required on public transport. Its not in the UK from tomorrow.
https://en.coronasmitte.dk/rules-and-regulations
They pretty much have the same restrictions the UK had in Stage 3 but with the Covid passport in addition too. They're not at UK Stage 4 restrictions even with the passport yet.
At midnight tonight drinkers in bars up and down the UK will be able to go from bars to nightclubs, they won't in Denmark.

Wrong - it's still a requirement to wear masks entering any restaurant or bar and there are indoor capacity limits.

The case rate amongst young not fully vaccinated clubbers in the big UK cities is where the biggest problem is likely to be from next week when UK nightclubs are allowed to reopen restriction free without social distancing and without mandatory facemasks
Should be at 60 000+ cases per day by then...🙄
a) Having to stand in a queue for no apparent reason
b) Having to pay to go through a dark, piss-stained entrance way
c) Paying stupid money for pissy drinks
d) Being unable to hold a conversation due to the ridiculous volume of music you can't stand
e) Struggling to stay awake
f) Having to walk home because there are no buses or taxis at 3am

Foul outside the box, there was a second foul inside the box; but it wasn't a continuation of the original foul. Free kick and yellow.Alistair said:Not a penalty. Change my mind.

The nightclub was billed Europe's "second worst"...but then the worst one (in Belgrade) burned down.

Just watched MSM TV news for the first time in ages
General jollity at his incompetence, plus the gorgeous weather, the Germans are drowning (always a nice distraction), suddenly loads of British sport - with big crowds - golf, F1, cricket - and we won at least two of those - then more nice weather news, then the thought of total unlockdown, yay!
The British people want to relax and to drink beer in the sun. Boris will be forgiven. He's Charles II, the Merry Monarch.
Of course, if Covid returns to ravage us.....
I'll point out that I made the Boris / Charles II comparison last week.
Very happy for others to use it but if it enters into general circulation I want my 15 minutes

So ignoring the outside the box foul I genuinely think the Canadian player is at fault for the inside the box incident. He changes his line and clatters the American.Pulpstar said:

That's a distinction without a difference: in both cases you are making vaccinating effectively compulsory.Pagan2 said:
There is a large difference between a one off proof and having to show it everywhere you might want to go. One is more like show me your provisional licence before you can take a driving test....the other is leave house....go to cinema show vaxport...leave cinema...goto restaurant...show vaxport...leave restaurant....goto bar show vaxport multiply by number of days you go outrcs1000 said:
