Enough of the ‘look me in the eyes’ advert. Literally want to throw something at the TV when that comes on. Especially given the number of people that are actually catching it in hospital in the first place!!

ENOUGH of sacrificing the young for the old.

Two world wars should have taught us that.

'The fact that people are being called out for spouting arrant factless shit does not equal censorship. If anything, it's the opposite.'

This.

What a load of hysterical twaddle that does a great disservice to people with genuine mh problems and actually shows a staggering misunderstanding of what is needed in a pandemic. All over Europe restrictions of some degree are in place.

I mean yes we can moan and not like it but this isn't that.

WonderLandWoman · 17/02/2021 11:27

Enough cancelled walks due to rain!!

MaxNormal · 17/02/2021 11:27

ok that ought to be true, but have you read the AD threads where they boast that they like being in situations where they can spread it?

That's a total lie.

DameFanny · 17/02/2021 11:28

Wales is still dependant on the UK for funds. Funds are being cut. Local challenges aren't recognised properly, so the difference in population density across the region isn't recognised properly in funding. Which is also why the EU was putting a bunch of money into Wales but hey, let's not get bitter...

@GetOffYourHighHorse

'Enough of comparisons with the fucking flu which doesn't fill intensive care wards over capacity in any year regardless of how many respective deaths are caused.'

Oh yes and the amount of mumsnetters who said 'the nhs is busy every year! They're being dictators taking my civil liberties for no good reason i'll take my own risks and so will my nan' 🙄.

'Thousands and thousands of us are at work'

You're on mumsnet! Jesus.

You know you get breaks at work?

Absolute and total bollocks. Enough with the bare faced fucking liars, please.

Enough of this uncomprehending, incendiary bollocks. Extra points for bringing in ww1 and 2 for absolutely no reason.

Enough of people moaning about their social lives when others are dying during a Pandemic.

Xenia · 17/02/2021 11:31

People are fed up on all sides in this thing understandably, particularly working parents with primary school children who I think have it worse than most others.

Hopefully the state will restore freedoms soon and let people make their own choices.

Anniegetyourgun · 17/02/2021 11:33

I could make a suggestion as to why the Welsh supermarket restrictions are so apparently arbitrary. I think it must be because where certain shops are closed because they've been deemed non essential, supermarkets could profit to an unreasonable extent by stocking more books, gardening equipment etc, effectively driving the other shops out of business in their enforced absence. What the Powers That Be will be wanting is for supermarkets to continue supplying essential food and household goods only, so the pent up demand for the other stuff will help the closed outlets rebound as soon as the restrictions are lifted. It's frustrating, but kind of fair, I guess. (I don't live in Wales though.)

Others die every single day sand we don't mourn for them.
fromdownwest · 17/02/2021 11:34

@DameFanny - The responsibilty for the Welsh NHS was devolved in 1999, along with it the budgetary decisions.

The number of beds available has fallen by a third since 1996.

grapewine · 17/02/2021 11:35

@TheKeatingFive

ENOUGH of people comparing this/people’s reactions to world wars. It’s totally different, they sound like total idiots.
Absolutely this. It is utterly unhelpful.

Enough of people stating the bloody obvious. We know people are dying during a pandemic....after a year it's not breaking news.
fromdownwest · 17/02/2021 11:38

@Anniegetyourgun - I am not sure what would 'effectively driving the other shops out of business' more than complete closure of their business!!

I don't think buying a towell or a dressing gown will put the local hardware store out of business.

So in the mean time, people are turning to a company that does pays very little uk tax, employs very few people, and has a gigantic carbon footprint.

trappedsincesundaymorn · 17/02/2021 11:38

pressed too soon.

You are aware people died before this pandemic and will continue to die after it as well. Or is it only covid deaths that should be mourned?

TupilaLilium · 17/02/2021 11:39

Enough of my university students complaining about not having face to face teaching.

I HATE THIS AS WELL. IT ISN'T MY CHOICE. THIS WAS NOT MY DECISION. I AM KILLING MYSELF TRYING TO MAKE THESE ZOOM SEMINARS USEFUL. YOU BLOODY WELL KNEW IT WAS A PANDEMIC WHEN YOU PAID THAT TUITION LAST AUTUMN. TAKE IT UP WITH THE GOVERNMENT AND STOP COMPLAINING TO ME!

venus22 · 17/02/2021 11:39

@judgingcat

Enough of being locked up when our numbers have dropped so low. Enough of being locked up when only 118k have died, enough of calling this a pandemic.
You are not 'locked up'. Over two million deaths, not 'only 118K'. Really........118K is only? It is a pandemic; what do you want to 'call it' ?
stayathomer · 17/02/2021 11:39

Enough of threads that pretend not to be covid related but the op knows ... also enough negative stuff so can't get enough of spring finally starting!!Grin

But that's just it, it doesn't look like that's coming anytime soon

I was trying so bloody hard to be positive, to be upbeat. The Vaccine being allowed and rolled out made me smile and feel like yes, this is it now, the beginning of the end.

Yet despite reaching the 15 million milestone, you still have Sage and PHE saying, rule of 6, social distancing, masks, no group meet ups, no weddings, no parties, until, well, who knows because they refuse to say other than "indefinitely". I've seen it suggested that this will continue until well into next year.
Next year!

Yet we are supposed to send our kids back to school in 3 weeks time? Teachers are meant to feel safe? We already lost a teacher at our school because one stupid, moronic bastard family couldn't say no to their bratty kid having his birthday party, and 60 other moronic families allowed 60 kids to attend. It takes a group like that to cause a huge wave within a school, which is exactly what happened from half term in October onwards, resulting in the death of a teacher.

They're saying about Biden coming over for some summit in Cornwall. Of 5,000 at some house race in May. Of people allowed back into football matches and Wimbledon and the theatre.

Yet we can't have people in our homes, or have parties or go to the pub or have a fucking life for the foreseeable?

It's total mixed messages.
Close the fucking border like they should have done from February last year, like Australia has and is now, without vaccines, having concerts and life.
