So did the Swedes get it right then?

Too early to say, in 5 years time perhaps we can answer that question. The usual lads will say Sweden called it badly wrong.

Sheep dog man

The Donnelly situation reminded me of our celebrity doctor Dr Ciara. On the Sindo the week before she got Covid, telling us stupids how not to get Covid. Its really simple keep apart, wash the hands well etc etc.
On the paper while she had it telling us how sick she was, stop the world I want to get off.

People clearly have too much time & waste it reading and/or spouting shite on social media. Social media is utter dung & yes I can see the irony of that statement.

I thought it was wee man who had died. It was in fact a different dwarf.

F×ck that, was all set for his wake too.

13 year old boy who has Aspergers syndrome shot multiple times on september 4th in Salt Lake City by police. The young fella was having a mental eposide and was running from police. This is shocking

The temperatures in Boulder Colorado these last 7 days have  highs of 39 Deg C, tomorrow temperatures are due to drop to a high of 1 Deg C with a large amount of snow.

The world has become extreme black and extreme white and I am nit talking about skin colour. You either have an extreme black or an extreme white approach. The grey in the middle is where the real truth lies.

I see this sentiment used a lot, yet almost never is it backed up with actual honest analysis of the situation it claims to be describing

It's empty cliched rhetoric

It refuses to recognise the essential injustice of the situation

The cause of Black Lives Matter is righteous and just

Their demands are righteous and just

Those who oppose them - the police, white supremacist mobs who have no cause for existence other then chaos, violence and death, and Trump, who has no cause other than chaos, violence, death and benefitting from massive corruption - are attempting to deny justice

There is no way you can "both sides" this

One side wants justice, the other wants injustice

It really is that simple

i bet Sid is on all kinds of blm , antifa platforms talking about burning it all down and other complete shite all from the comfort of mommies basement 3000 miles away .

Thanks for that considered contribution

You're doing a superb job of exposing your own lack of argument

Thats the pot calling the kettle black 

Not having thousands of cars and packed buses and trains piling in City Centres at the same time has to be a positive.
Can public and private organisations not provide some sort of "hubs" in various locations for those who can do all or most of their work in them?
Could be a great boon for a small town if even 30 or 40 people from the area were based there even 4 days a week rather than stuck in the middle of Dublin, Galway, Belfast or wherever.

I would see this as a major positive potential outcome of the remote working. It could keep some people working in the area they grew up & having a positive knock on effect for small local businesses, schools, clubs etc, whilst not putting a strain on large urban areas, housing, traffic management,  schools, healthcare etc.
Conversely J70 point about young ones building relationships with co workers is a valid point for mental wellbeing.

No social distancing with them Armagh yokes, wimmin are worse than men.

Oh look, Sid is back. And one again, he's not answering questions or engaging in conversation. That would only get in the way of his attempt to include  "fascism" and "right wing" in every thread on every message board in the world.

Definitely a robot.

Hard to know if he's hard left or loony left, best ignored. Pretending he cares is a good one though, constant hate speech & bottomless bile.

Nearly every GAA club in lurgan has now been hit. House parties seem to have been the main cause of the spread.

At this stage I'd actually go out on a limb and say it's not so much the house parties....its what ahem....goes on at them.

So ya have to be riding to catch the oul Covid.

Bloodline any good?

Huge promise after 1st series, bogged down a bit in middle series, but still interesting. Final series was a huge let down, desperate to be honest.

Met him once the day I got married. Just before my wife and I were called into the ballroom. Up steps John Hume to wish us well. I was star struck this man was a hero of mine growing up. The humanity of the man will never be surpassed. A real leader of the underdog and a politician who represented his people. He went out and got stuff done instead of talking about it. RIP
