"Why not? We expected everyone to behave responsibly during Eid. I was about to say this. And you’ll probably get the same level of compliance." Did you not see the pictures and read the reports. There wasn't much rule following and you only have to look at the areas that are under tighter restrictions to see what happened there. Same will happen come Christmas if we're not already there by then | |||

"We don't know what effects the pending changes will have on infection levels, so rules may change either way. Many people will carry on as normal, with small groups, or meeting no madditional others. For some it could be a true blessing, where they keep visits to a shorter duration , if they don't manage to stop any of them. 6 people per hour would involve a very large group of family and friends over the day and they can of course meet over multiple days. It's just Christmas. It's just a day that was appropriated from pagan festivities into Christianity, where most people now find the religion not to be something that they actively engage with. People can be credited with great skills of creativity to find other solutions, if they are desperate. " I actually think the sooner they make the announcement the better, then people have time to get their heads round it and prepare. | |||

Surely folk youd see xmas day are folk you are in constant touch with, so over the weeks before yiud be aware if any of them have felt unwell, or been tested etc.... but people in a pub you dont know are better to be around | |||

"Infected numbers are going up. Restrictions are tightening. There are hints this is the way things will go for months. But what happens at Christmas? Johnson and his gov. will know they have no chance of telling the country to stay away from friends and family on Christmas Day." If we all just conform to what’s been asked of us then perhaps we won’t be moaning about Christmas | |||

"People should stop talking bollocks. Stop looking for ways round this dreadfully situation. Stop blaming everyone one else. Including the government. The BAME, the Raves and street parties should of been stopped at the beginning, how many lives were lost to them? How many are going to lose their lives in the future by cancer not being able to get treat ment. There be loads more,,, maybe one of your relatives, wife children,, you might not have the same attitude then. Does anyone think good old Jerermy Corbyn would of cured it by now? His attitude,, half the nation would be dead by now. If we knuckle down now and follow the rules we might all get some normality by Christmas. It's a new problem to us all, learning as we go and people will make mistakes and people will die." It's astonishing people still try to blame Corbyn for everything. Despite the fact he was never in power. And despite the fact he's not even Labour leader anymore. Johnson's in charge now. The buck's supposed to stop with him. | |||

A man Johnson defended, thus undermining the importance of following public health rules for members of the public during this pandemic. Sorry. You were saying Johnson wasn't to blame? | |||

" Do you really wanna talk about Johnson and responsibility? OK. Johnson's responsible for missing multiple Cobra meetings earlier in the pandemic. He's also responsible for publicy boasting about how he was going round a hospital, shaking hands with everybody during a pandemic. He's also responsible for introducing a lockdown far too late. (Earlier he was saying this country was going to just "take it on the chin" as opposed to bothering with any sort of lockdown to save lives.) What else? The many deaths in care homes? Giving huge contracts to private companies without any sort of public tender, even when those companies had track records of failure. PPE failures. He scrapped the pandemic committee shortly before the pandemic. It goes on and on and on. He's very responsible for this government's lousy response to the pandemic. | |||

(Earlier he was saying this country was going to just "take it on the chin" as opposed to bothering with any sort of lockdown to save lives.) What else? The many deaths in care homes? Giving huge contracts to private companies without any sort of public tender, even when those companies had track records of failure. PPE failures. He scrapped the pandemic committee shortly before the pandemic. It goes on and on and on. He's very responsible for this government's lousy response to the pandemic. " | |||

" Don't talk so much shit lol Johnson is responsible for making the rules and giving the police the power to enforce them. He is Not responsible for each individual and their actions, they act on their own accord if they choose mot to ahead to the rules and break the rules on their head be it. It is Everyone's responsibility not 1 man or Organisation No the buck stops with the people ignoring the rules, which are put there to try, to do something. Not just pulling everyone down, ignoring it and think they are clever getting round it. They are the ones responsible for the deaths of maybe your loved ones. No, the buck really is supposed to stop with Johnson. He's the national leader. He's the one who's ultimately responsible, no matter how much he tries to blame others. " If our world beating track and trace had been introduced in June as promised then we probably wouldn’t be having this conversation. Even a bog standard one that Germany and Italy use would do. | |||

" But what happens at Christmas?" Scientific Advisor Vallence tells us that the cases are doubling every day. Thus he calculates erroneously that we will have 30,000 cases a day by mid October and 200 deaths a day by the end of October. So applying exactly the same method we will all have had CV19 and 11.5 million of us will be dead by Christmas day. Shortly after New Years Day, all human life in the UK will have ended. That is the absurd logic being promoted by the government. Merry Christmas everyone. | |||

" Buck stops with our own personal responsibility Nope. Buck stops with the leader. See? Round and round it goes. Wheeeee. It is all down to how we behave as individuals though ... I wouldn't want to be in charge during this unprecedented pandemic If we all thought with social responsibility and community spirit it would be a lot easier for everybody surely? Why apportion blame? We're all in this together We're really not all in it together. Cummings' rule-breaking + Johnson's defence of him proved that. every time i see something about cummings rule breaking i just want to scream grow the F up!!! someone else being a dick does not justify you being a dick from thereon ... in any example in life The problem is that it gave a lot of people the excuse to break the rules, too. The Cummings incident fundamentally damaged trust in the government at a time when it was crucial. It also fundamentally undermined the message that the rules were absolute, letting people think they were optional. it only gives you an excuse if you are looking for one ... again someone else being a dick never justifies you being a dick its like getting cheated on when you were 17 so telling yourself its fine to shag about behind every partner’s back for the rest of your life your actions are you actions... end of Stating "end of" doesn't prove any point whatsoever. PS end of. no but it demonstrates where i draw the line in terms of my personal responsibility its less clear to the rest of us where your line is drawn but i suspect as far away from you as possible i already made my point several times with several examples btw ... but go on chuck out your cumminga story again Apparently I don't need to use any stories or facts. I can just say end of. End of. i mean that might make sense if i hadnt provided examples before that its like trying to debate with a petulant teenager You do know he will want the last word only 34 posts to go if he picks up my one occasion of counting the number of posts and runs with it like he has end of we might get there soon (he also seems to think using end of is what made me compare to a petulant teenager missing the fact its the attitude flowing through every post making him look selfish and immature) There is no need to insult him just because you don't agree. I'm never surprised when certain people resort to ad hominem attacks on here. It's rather sad, though." | |||

" where have i insulted someone? I've described behaviour that is clear on the thread for all to see (using the govt to justify blatant disregard for rules designed to save lives is selfish and a number or the responses have been in a very childish debate style of just pick something someone said and repeat repeat repeat) if i found a description of my behaviour offensive pretty sure it would be the mirror i would be looking in to make changes | |||

It also fundamentally undermined the message that the rules were absolute, letting people think they were optional." It's hardly my fault you don't agree. The Cummings argument doesn’t stand up.

So we are back to you taking responsibility for your own actions/decisions. Shows a degree of weakness to so easily blame someone/something else for something you are ultimately solely responsible for - personal responsibility. "Shows a degree of weakness to so easily blame someone/something else for something you are ultimately solely responsible for - personal responsibility." That sounds a lot like the way Johnson has been deflecting blame away from himself. Round and round it goes again. You are dodging the fact your Cummings argument now doesn’t stand up - very johnsonesque " Actually, I was reading. Here's a snippet from the Lancet, talking about he effectt of Cummings' actions: "It is only now, however, with the benefit of hindsight provided by systematic data, that we can see these negative effects in stark detail. New analyses of 220?755 surveys from 40?597 individuals in England, Scotland, and Wales, completed between April 24 and June 11, 2020, as part of University College London's COVID-19 Social Study, show that these events undermined confidence in the government to handle the pandemic specifically" | |||

Because the 30 people at a funeral has to be at a covid secure place and not in a residential property. Hmmmm How do you go about being officially recognised as having a covid secure place ? Iv no idea but its very clear that it cannot happen in a residential property So when I go to a serviced apartment (my residence for the period of my stay) - they say they are “covid secure” ..... I’m thinking this line of investigation may have legs ???? Oh yes let's all try to find loop holes to break the law. You mean something like “oh a government spad allegedly did something which the police said didn’t break the law - so it’s ok for me to not follow the law” type loophole ?? " Actually... "Durham constabulary have examined the circumstances surrounding the journey to Barnard Castle (including ANPR [automatic number plate recognition], witness evidence and a review of Mr Cummings’s press conference on 25 May 2020) and have concluded that there might have been a minor breach of the regulations that would have warranted police intervention." | |||
