    There is a surprise. It is just what I think, as stated, it isn't a government view,
    Although there was something yesterday that did say numbers in school were driven by the external virus level and were not a net contributor to external levels. In other words, schools and the children in them are more sinned against than sinning.

    I have been wondering what effect all the social distancing/mask wearing/hand sanitiser using, has had on the number of cases of flu. It turns out that it has indeed been dramatic:

    https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/w...rates-19737474

    Cases down 95%!

    What organisation? I was asking you.

    By the way, I meant its the information that is outrageous, not the fact that you post them.

    someone or other I follow on twitter presumably retweeted it. there is definitely no shadowy organisation

    On listening to Kim jong Drakeford just now, 3 more weeks staying home hopefully, maybe able to travel by Easter. I get that he’s being cautious etc and he’s on about not doing things wrong possibly like last July, but surely the fact that a third of adults/ those most vulnerable have been vaccinated makes a huge difference compared to last July when no one had? No doubt in another 6 weeks a fair few more would have been jabbed too? Looking at the data coming in from Israel where infection rates have plummeted with the vaccination, surely we can all hope for some good times ahead....

    I never ever suggested there was a shadowy anything, spreading the info is perfectly legitimate. My reference to an organisation was just that you seem to be the poster who gets these first and I wondered if you got them from a political group or something.
    clearly it is not the labour party or others on here would also get them and post them, quite rightly.
    I was just asking.

    PS. I like the way you said 'the' organisation before you dismissed any such thing existed.

    Johnson just cannot stop trying to run before he can walk it seems and why do his grand schemes always have to be given childish names?

    Meanwhile, this under reported story would have, almost certainly, led to a ministerial resignation once, now hardly anyone seems bothered by it.

    Johnson is wielding too much power so he thinks he can do what he likes, either that or Hancock and Patel have something on him.

    I listened to our first minister yesterday and he said there were more than 1800 patients in hospitals in Wales with Covid. Yet the figure the Wales Gov feed into the UK data says there were 1165.( as of 18th Feb). Seems a large difference.

    Are you saying Mark Drakeford is lying?

    Never. Perhaps he was counting the people in out-patients and A and E.

    He does make the odd mistake, I quite like that about him, he said he hoped all primary kids could be back by the 15th Feb, he clearly meant March but it can’t be too easy standing there relaying all this info....

    Why do you say it was under reported?

    And the governemtn has said Whitty was no against the plan, and he has not publicly said he is, the reported disquiet is third hand. I'd ait to see what he says himself.

    Im not surprised by the Guardian comments. The only thing that's consistent with that newspaper since it originated as the Manchester Guardian is that it reviles the Tories

    Because it was under reported and is that really the only thing you find worthy of comment in that story about a Minister breaking the law? It’s touchingly naive of you to think that, with the job he’s got, Whitty would come out and make his disagreement with a Government formed by any party public.
