Lazy People?. Glad to hear that people who ring up all get trested with some empathy


Believe me yes some are very lazy. How they get treated is the same as everyone else though. If you could hear the reasons for some of these tests you would know what i mean

Oh and the amount of fucking people who want a test for travel purposes as well

Our esteemed Education Minister, Gavin Williamson:

'I just reckon we've got the very best people in this country and we've obviously got the best medical regulator, much better than the French have, much better than the Belgians have, much better than the Americans have. That doesn't surprise me at all, because we're a much better country than every single one of them'.

How old is he? Turns out he's 44. Sounds more like he's 4.4

As Have I Got News For You observed, the very quote itself, and it's author, disproves it's own claim. This kind of bullshit English exceptionalism spouted by morons like Williamson is precisely why the UK has had among the worst health and economic outcomes of the COVID pandemic of any developed nation

Those wanting test for travel have turned up at my test centre and been sent away.  FWIW, we are operating at pretty much full capacity on a daily basis.  Its only a small site, but after a few teething problems its running well.

The only trouble is FH (and I'm no anti-vaxxer trust) but with all the shite and blatant lies our government has put out to date, could it not be beyond the realms of possibility that our government, which appears to all about posturing rather than substance, be indeed jumping the gun to look all billy big bollocks?

Not suggesting they've cut corners but more a sense of them using this as their saving grace and to get "the people" back on side. What if all of it, isn't as it seems?

I wouldn't put it past this government if I'm totally honest. They've given too many reasons time and again to not trust them.

I don't believe this government either, but the regulators are saying it's safe. They are not the government.

And Fauci is still an irresponsible dick.

Just listened to Williamson actually say it. Strikes me that he was so keen to be seen noshing off the regulators he completely forgot what a colossal prat he sounds when he talks

This - I work in the clinical trials industry and there is no way the MHRA have been influenced here...

...and if it turns out I am wrong, then this will be the biggest news story of the Century, the UK pharma industry will fucked for all time and multiple heads will roll.

I've read the MHRA did it on a rolling basis as soon as the data started coming in and the FDA waited for all the data to come in first. Which would explain why the MHRA approved it first.

And Fauci didn't seem to offer any explanation or evidence supporting his comment. Maybe he's been taken out of context?

This goes without saying per se, and it wasn't a direct reference to back up the Fauci.

I do believe the regulators (we have to otherwise we're truly fucked), my point was more towards our government wanting to make themselves look good (Williamson's comments earlier, BoJo clearly in his position for personal gain et al).

I'll give credit to the science, absolutely. But now this stage is in the hands of the Gov, I feel there will be certain untruths to
eventually come out. Not necessarily the vaccine in isolation but things linked to it. Also, this Gov has proven time and again that they can fuck up anything.

Isn't vt the company that fucked up the PPE delivery also still contracted in handling a large chunk of the vaccination delivery?

Possibly but you should still maintain your initial and correct statement thatvs he is a bit of a dick.

It's OK, the virus doesn't affect "High value business travellers". Just like it takes 5 days off over Christmas
