Odd that this world beating service is now passing the onus of contacting possible contagious members of the public, on to local councils. They watched everything on Netflix so there was no point keeping them on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well played common sense, hope you lock down forever brigade are happy. The I’m all right Jack attitude is terrifying No just untill there is decent test and trace system still waiting on the world beating app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ariotofmyown Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 I've not read anything about the impact of Covid on HS2. Regardless if you thought it was a good idea or not, the probable shift to working from home could well be the end of it. They've made a bit of a mess around Euston but not sure if much else has been started on yet. Maybe they will bring back legendary pub Bree Louise just behind Euston Square tube.

Nothing to worry about, this is old style, the world beating app that was ready by beginning of June surely must be ready to rock 'n roll... Anyway having decimated councils for years it makes perfect sense to leave it to them to sort it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely going ahead, work has started already on the southern section and Govt funds are in place. The stretch around Birmingham begins in earnest towards the end of the year according to the contractors schedule, but it may slip into Q2 2021. The main benefits of HS2 was to take freight off the roads and use rail instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really makes you wonder why we closed down the whole economy doesn't it? No conspiracy theory really is it, just pointing out the obvious I think. Maybe if we had just quarantined the most vulnerable, and let everyone carry on as normal, we could even be near the stage where we could back to normal now. Instead we had 'experts' telling us that the Government were reacting too slow and should be bringing the whole country to a standstill. Experts like @Eddie ?

rammieib Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 I find it very frustrating at the big sporting events when everyone will have been tested that the staff are still wearing the masks, or the subs on the bench and so on. Then you kick each other to death for 90 mins and then do an elbow bump at the end!!! You are tested twice a week, just act normal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyinLiverpool Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 Just now, rammieib said: Fake, emotionless, etc I don’t know why it would be ‘frustrating’. it’s a bit silly perhaps but it’s not like you are affected by it. It’s not like being stuck in traffic or not being able to get it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
