Coronavirus update - NO MORE RESTRICTIONS

Re: Coronavirus update

Here are some facts to go with your opinions.


Bangladesh had the South Africa but not the Brazil variant and Pakistan had neither when they were added to the red list on 9 April.

India had both, as well as a new variant, but was not added for another two weeks.

On 9 April:

Pakistan had a seven-day average of 21 cases per million people
Bangladesh had twice as many
India had four times as many

I know, I read the same articles. But to suggest India was kept of the list just so Boris could visit and for no other reason is arrant nonsense.
But then, every single thing he does is wrong. Now you must admit that takes a great deal of planning and concentration, not everyone could do it. Years of practice probably.

you need to stop taking these threads too seriously, you'll hurt yourself.

Re: Coronavirus update

Touched a nerve there didn’t I . Have another look at what I actually said rather than what you think I said, how can I be making a statement of fact as you call it when I end what I say with a question mark?

Got to the level of correcting peoples grammar now have we? We really are plumbing the depths. It's time to remind yourself that this message board is not real life and it is not part of the Senedd or the hose of Commons or the United Nations or some other great debating chamber that can actually make a difference to shit. It's just a bunch of guys commenting on things ovefr whic htey have zero influence and zero affect.

Re: Coronavirus update

It's so easy for you isn't it. All you have to do is repeat what you think you heard or read as fact and jump to conclusions which suit your agenda. Here is what Mark Drakeford actually said;-

https://nation.cymru/news/wales-wont-lift-all-restrictions-on-june-21-even-if-england-does-drakeford-confirms/

It's not quite the same as you said it was is it? Now, it appears to me that what Johnson said yesterday could be construed as an admission that the Drakeford view was the correct one in that there was a still a need for caution, but maybe your theory that we can expect Drakeford to go back on what he said earlier this month any time today might be right - after all, the First Minister changes his mind so often when it comes to the Pandemic doesn't he.

The bickering just goes on….and on….and on…….zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzxxxxxx

I really think you should stop, you're making a fool of yourself now. In what universe is me pointing out that I'd put a question mark in something I had written "correcting peoples grammar"?

You need to get a life, really. This isn't it.

Re: Coronavirus update

After yesterday's 200 plus new cases, it's drop below a hundred, only just mind, today. It's the Betsi Cadwaladr Health Board in North Wales that is driving the recent increase, with just under a half of the new cases - the figures for south Wales have only risen slightly;-

That healthboard covers tourism hotspots like Llandudno doesn't it?

Yes I think it does.

Re: Coronavirus update

Yes I think it does.

since the weather turned good, the tourist hotspots in North wales have been absolutely heaving, mostly with Brummies and scousers according to a friend of mine who lives there.
I don't think we have as many people popping across the border to tourist things in South Wales, they seem mostly to be local destinations.

Re: Coronavirus update

I presume you did notice Bob's quotation marks when correcting xsnaggle's grammar?

For future reference, one full stop goes outside the quotation marks!

I was in Tenby 10 days ago and it was heaving with English tourists - most sounded like they were from London and the south east.

This is Pembrokeshire though, they don't call it "Little England beyond Wales" for no reason

True - and my guess is that half the shopkeepers, cafe owners, taxi drivers and people running B&Bs were English. But my point is that the English tourists had to cross the border to get to Tenby - and from the accents it was probably across the bridge and through South Wales, before joining the 10 mile tailback into Pembrokeshire!

Very true. I was down there last week and there seemed to be plenty of people about in both Tenby and Saundersfoot. The decent weather keeps people outside which is good, everyone I saw inside was being sensible.
