TOTAL AND UTTER MADNESS

[Bottletopsx]

I am totally amazed at the attitude of our Government! Thousands of Spanish football fans have travelled from coronavirus-hit Madrid to the UK for a football game in Liverpool tonight. Madrid has parts on lockdown and are not allowed to gather on mass there, yet they can fly here!!
Total madness!

Sadly not surprising!

Bonkers

WTF!

Matt Hancock said follow the Science it will be ok.

Crazy its like they want us all dead.

Bloody hell.

How can you be surprised, when an Nadine Dorries tested postive, spent time with Boris & co and only one MP exposed has self isolated. Why don’t they practise what they preach?

Mind you no worse than my local college still being open even though a confirmed case made the local news. Not even a deep clean.

This is going to be one hell of a mess.

Matt Hancock can’t spell science, never mind follow it. He’s the densest man on Whitehall and there is a lot of competition for that title.

@Roselilly36 I wonder how they can be trusted to lead us to safety from the virus when they've done such a stellar job for themselves!!

He’s doing the right thing. The advice he’s given is from experts. Why wouldn’t you go with it? He’s right in saying that if you do it too early, it’ll backfire. Are people just annoyed because it’s the tories? I’m guessing it is.

It’s total madness, we will look back at this (if we can) and despair at the delays

Be another 3000 next week too in Manchester.

Madness. I think we have to come to terms that while the govt is taking measures to protect the economy, they are also planning for a high number of people to get it.

I think they will end up locking down in some way - but probably just a little bit too late. They should be acting now.

Dominic Raab didn't look too well during the Budget today, did he? Half of Parliament could have it.

I’m absolutely livid about this as I’m from Liverpool.

Thank goodness my sons could not get tickets for the match!

Thankfully my boss said work from home yesterday if we were uncomfortable which I’ve done as of today, there are lots of Liverpool fans in my office who will be there tonight.

I could cry.

Calm down. Madrid is at a very different stage to us..
We need to fan the flame of those fires by allowing this to occur, and then, when we face raging community transition, when it's really firing along, then, and only then will we stop inviting infected peoples over.

Chillax peeps.

@Charlesthekingcavalier I couldn't agree more with everything you just posted.
The CMO (and Deputy CMO earlier today) have told us why they are doing what they are doing - they're not out to get us! Stop believing Suzy from Grimsby and take advice of the experts. I also believe that the herding effect, strengthening our immunity to the new virus in winters to come, as I've seen suggested elsewhere, is likely true and quite clever.

I’m Liverpool too and work here

9 cases in Merseyside now

3000 fans who can’t watch their team in span but can here!

I'm really trying to say calm, and not panic, while just taking sensible measures to stock up a bit, and socially distance myself as far as possible, but I'm finding it difficult to understand why so many people aren't taking it seriously, including Boris.

I mean, maybe I've just watched a few too many pandemic movies - I certainly hope so.

Charles. Someone said, our numbers are higher then when wuhan instigated its draconian lock down.

Us plucky brits are inviting football matches and race meets and anyone off any plane to just call 111.

And... 111 will say, do you know a confirmed case?

Oh, if not don't worry.

Stop believing Suzy from Grimsby and take advice of the experts.

The experts I keep reading - like the guy from the WHO - seem to say that we should be acting now.

It's totally idiotic.

Sorry, I meant the guy from Lancet - RIchard Horton.

Are we really surprised that this incompetent government is acting well, incompetent?

We are meant to be in the CONTAIN phase. What a joke!
