    Fight on a train over masks

    How do we know this fight was started by a masked person and not someone who takes exception to people wearing masks? Plenty of those people about and wouldn't be the first time.

    Masks again

    I don’t care for masks one way or the other but trying to equate mask compliance with murder or serious injury is not a very clever counter argument.

    Local Lockdowns after Furlough ends

    To me that proves these lockdowns don't work.

    The case for and against the effectiveness of face coverings and the mandating of their use

    what about coughing into your hands/arm pre COVID? They are not FFP3 compliant so must also be pointless?

    The case for and against the effectiveness of face coverings and the mandating of their use

    I don't care one way or the other about masks, the only real inconvenience for 99% of people is remembering to carry one...but it's pretty funny watching people on here throw their toys out the pram over them.

    Vaccine Passports - currently being considered in Scotland & Wales

    Given vaccines don't prevent transmission I guess no one should be going to the matches then??

    Starcross ferry discrimination?

    "literally useless"? Logic would dictate any form of barrier in front of ones face probably has a small percentage of being mildly useful...if not then why (pre covid) did we bother to cough into our hands?

    What do you think about ‘pings’ because of the Track and Trace App?

    I'll say it again. The app is voluntary and being pinged by it does not mean you have to isolate....isolating from the app is entirely voluntary. The government should be shouting this from the roof tops instead of applying different rules to different types of workers.

    What do you think about ‘pings’ because of the Track and Trace App?

    with respect, your colleague didn’t HAVE to get tested and doesn’t HAVE to isolate for 10 days (unless the test happens to be positive). Everything about the app is voluntary.

    Compulsory Vaccinations & Employment

    I wouldn't call assessments and tests medical treatments.

    Compulsory Vaccinations & Employment

    I have no issue with the vaccine personally...but its a dangerous and slippery slope for employers to start dictating medical treatments of employees.

    Vaccine Progress, Approval, and Deployment

    I was similar. I had my first jab last week in the afternoon. It was the Pfizer but thankfully didn't feel any side effects other than an achy arm until the next morning.

    Starcross ferry discrimination?

    What exactly are you doing to fight this? Are you mounting a legal challenge, physically protesting or boycotting them? As far as I can see you are just getting hot on a forum and arguing with anyone that happens to disagree with your point of view.

    Step 3 confirmed for 17th May

    Yep, and guarantee due to the Indian variant they will announce a delay to unlocking!

    RMT on the possible 2 year pay freeze

    It would not cut the wage bill by all that much if at all. If jobs are not covered on overtime then you will need more staff on the roster or the jobs would be uncovered. More staff means more wages, more uniform, more NI & pension contributions, more training, more holiday and sickness leave.

    West Midlands Trains crew shortages

    Should be a disciplinary offence to go into work with a positive test!

    "Clap For Carers" is back again

    Didn't clap then, certainly will not start now. Nothing against the frontline staff but the NHS as a whole has let down regular patients.

    Police checking travel

    ...... 1609432044 Not speaking or giving information to the Police when it is not legally required is not proof or suspected proof of breaking the law. Having a suspicion is not proof someone is or has broken the law. Fine the people that have actually broken the law.

    Police checking travel

    That is a huge and unjustified leap if I have ever heard one....and quite a dangerous one at that.
