    I remember taking stick on here for suggesting back then, that the EU were slow out of the blocks because they were looking at getting a global vaccination plan up and running but had the plan scuppered by the UK and US grabbing first dibs on vaccines forcing the EU to follow suit.

    I think both governments made mistakes about mass gatherings as they were probably getting the same advice.

    Catherine Calderwood at the time said "we know that mass gatherings and stopping those are not the best way to contain the virus"

    Jason Leitch remember was telling us to "hug our granny" and said he would have gone to the Stereophonics at the SECC in Glasgow if he could, and Lewis Capaldi played to 11,000 in Aberdeen days after the Cheltenham Festival took place.
    We also had a Six Nations match with circa 70k in attendance plus an Edinburgh derby get the go-ahead. Easy to brush it off as SNP bashing but you wonder if these events would have taken pace had Sturgeon not overruled medical advice to make the Nike conference issue public.

    I don't think the devolved nations will be spared criticism in the public inquiry.

    There has been a report on the Nike conference and there was found to be no evidence of any further covid transmission in the community as a result of the conference.
    There is no such thing as too much yarn, just not enough time.

    I think the devolved nations will take the majority of the blame when the UK govt have their inquiry.

    Also the government were told at the time by the medical folks to not publish anything to protect attendees confidentiality (the numbers were so low it would have been easy to work out who had it etc)

    Am I really looking at an article written by Ian Murray, The Only Labour MP in Scotland!!! An OPINION PIECE!!

    Here is what I heard...

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-58810370




    From the OFFICIAL report

    An outbreak of COVID-19 was identified in Scotland on 2 March 2020 following the detection of a case among 71 delegates who attended a conference in Edinburgh between 25 and 27 February 2020. The delegates were from Scotland, England, Northern Ireland, the Republic of Ireland and the Netherlands.
    Twenty-three primary cases were linked to the conference and 16 secondary cases were subsequently identified.
    In Scotland, eight cases were directly linked to the conference (six primary and two secondary cases).

    Science says there was no community transmission.

    Be interesting to see what any enquiry has to say about the spread of Covid and any increase in deaths and infections as a result of Bozo & Sunak's Eat out to "help out" idea.

    That is a very very dangerous road to be going down. I was led to believe that the court was the ultimate arbiter in all things. Just like when Westminster took Holyrood to court recently

    Hopefully taking back control of our long established independent court system will be as successful as taking back control of everything else Bozo was taking back control of.

    Slippery slope towards totalitarianism if this one gets any momentum.

    i vaguely remember reading an article with a quote from a tory spokesperson that they were raging a judge chose the side of Joanna cherry and, i think Gina millar ? anyway, they were going to be making inroads in wanting more 'government friendly' judges, ala what Trump had started doing in America, this has only been stalled due to all the s**tfest that has been happening during 20/21

    I suppose Parliament holds that position in that if Westminster lost in the recent case you mentioned then they could go back to Parliament and try to vote through a change in the law to suit. What Raaaab is suggesting is a single Government minister can change or at least overule the decision of the Judge without Parliaments involvement. That's just mental when you think of some of the things they would be capable of.

    It's ironic that a government representing and empowered by anti-eastern European xenophobia is going The Full Poland.

    i do enjoy listening to George Monbiot, and not just because he thinks this country would be mad not to vote for independence, he's spot on in this video from several months ago when he mentions the craziness of why people are getting hurt but they still vote for this Tory Government=media propaganda, iirc it's something like 80% of the press is owned by Tories, even worse is state TV is now under total control of the Tories.

    High Speed Rail 2 section CANCELLED as costs spiral out of control – Fast Sentinel (desertofvice.com)

    This would be a major setback in Boris Johnson’s promise to deliver “levelling up” for the north of England.

    The DfT has strongly denied “not true” and “false” claims from a whistleblower that the real cost of HS2 is now at least £160.6billion and could be as high as £200billion.


    i'm sure Johnson will find another vanity project....or tory donors to give it to instead

    By the time it gets cancelled the press will have turned the population against the project so much that it will be seen a a great victory.
