No U turn on essential goods ban

[lisvaneblue]

You can't go without a drink for 12 days? Go and see your doctor

Can't go out for a meal ? Get a takeaway

Can't go to the cinema ? Save a few quid and watch a dvd

Cant meet up with a friend ? Phone them up or Skype them

Cant meet a member of your family ? See above

Its a couple of weeks ff sake . You are not in solitary confinement like Nelson Mandela.

During world war two kids were hiding in bomb shelters and food was rationed. And that's really rationed , not what we have now .

Jesus wept .

You are missing the KEY point....social interaction. Your world sounds like life through the internet and you'll watch Drakeford on it every morning to tell you what to eat, what to watch and which zoom meetings to participate in.

And your comment go and SEE a doctor, don't be daft this is Wales.

So you object to not being able to socially interact to try and halt the spread of Covid? Only a few moments ago you were saying you never get out of your car.....

[SLUDGE FACTORY]

Isn't that the point? The more contact people have with other people, the more the virus spreads?

Thats what the scientists say

But what do they know ?

Who knows, they keep changing their minds....

Thank fook the politicians don't......

[SLUDGE FACTORY]

Yeah, so we're told. Ad infinitum. But I was merely pointing out that there's a bit more to this lockdown than not being able to buy some cheap clothing for the next 12 days.

We are told that by scientists who are experts in infection control

If I want advice on my car I phone my mechanic

I just listen to the news for government guidance

You cannot see a doctor by just turning up round by me , you have to phone in the morning and get an appointment

Since April you generally get a phonecall back from a gp and if its considered serious you are able to attend the surgery , after sanitising your hands

My mother saw a heart specialist at Morriston hospital in Swansea recently and in late September she saw a elderly mental health psychiatrist in Llandough ten days after her gp referred her .

Whilst the pandemic is a pain I think the nonsense about not being able to see a doctor is clearly tory hyperbole

And drive up to brecon to say hello to a butcher and buy some pork sausages

[Dorcus]

Yes I am fortunate, and don't think I don't realise that.

That's good to know, that should cheer you up in these difficult times

Its not just people in Wales signing it.

Compare it to the petition in England on school meals.

Tory boy calls it an uprising the protest in Wales😂😂😂😂😂😂

Dont know what he will call the one backing Rashford and his petition against his beloved party.

Luckily the WAG are allowing our children in deprived areas their meals no thanks to the likes of Crabb though.

The likes of those in the red wall in the North are now seeing what they voted for.

[Hilts]

You wont find anything to back the claims up.

Not suprising either.

[life on mars]

Surely they will have to lift the lock down on the 9th to see the effects based on not having a lock down and we will be over the awful l Halloween and Bonfire nights as well ,which must be a factor in this lock down period .

Not many businesses are aware of what happens on the 9th yet.

Stay close to twitter I say

Some will still say it's not clear enough or variations of "wait and see".

Of course they will.....

TBW, I posted this earlier in the week after hilts suggested there was no intent to review. He never responded having previously said "No need for a link as there wont be one."
I honestly hope and pray they do not extend it but I have an nasty feeling they might, even if only to hold on long enough for the figures to be looked at, which I understand takes about 3 weeks.

I didnt reply as there is nothing from anyone from the WAG saying the lockdown isnt ending on 9/11.

In fact they keep saying it will end.

Youve provided an article where the journo says it will be reviewed on 9/11. Of course there will be a review. They are not saying the review is to see whether we come out of lockdown.

If youve got direct links to quotes from anyone from the WAG saying its not necessarily ending on 9/11 provide them because I cant find anything.

Looking at the incredibly bad figures from Mountain Ash Penrhiwceiber and Abercynon. Ceiber I do worry what might happen in RCT.

I believe the comment that it will be reviewed on 9 Nov came from government. At least that is what is inferred in the article. Don't misunderstand me, I want it to end and hope it does, and if it doesn't I won't be saying "I told you so". I am just fearful it may not and that the public will react badly to that.
The actual lockdown isn't affecting me at all.
