Drakeford will be rubbing his hands in glee at the prospect of getting his grey suit in front of the cameras and pontificating about how we do things differently "here in Wales" as he plans another Christmas lockdown from the shed in the bottom of his garden.

Or maybe from his second home .... sorry additional council tax exempt property in Pembrokeshire.

Hit the nail on the head with this post, I’m surprised how few people want to know the truth and are so quick to label people who challenge the narrative as ‘conspiracy theorists’.

Exactly. We did our best to warn people, but best concentrate on yourself pal.

Me and misses have Covid atm. Symptoms include head cold, sore throat, coughing and fever. 3 days of feeling rough, now feel like I'm over the worst. Still have a sore throat tho. I would say it feels like being in-between a cold and the flu. Still worked from home so not a show stopper. I had 3 jabs when is was a thing. Would it have been worst if I hadn't had jabs? Who knows. Lemsip cold and flu capsules did the job of reducing the hurt and allowing me to function at a lower rate.

Can’t prove a negative so it’s a pure guess as to what the impact would be if you hadn’t had the jabs you have had.

I think you can make a pretty educated guess though to say a lot more would have died without vaccines.

Just had that too….just a head cold really, like a bad hangover for 3-5 days. Last jab was November, but had it on good authority from a local covid consultant that the last lot of jabs do nothing for strains like omicron which was basically just a sore throat, you can’t stop stuff like that. Jab was good for Delta though….it’s just a new strain of cold or flu, we are always going to have them and flu will always take out the weak or old.

Had two jabs, caught Covid in March, like a bad cold/ mild flu. Not having anymore jabs.
Interestingly Van Tam , the guy on telly every night telling us to get the jab, has walked into a high paying job with Moderna.big Pharma, who bung politicians millions, have seen profits Sky rocket. The whole thing is a scam.

Just waiting for the you can sit down to eat in a bar or restaurant rule and don't wear a mask but when your walking about the same places you must have a mask on like this suppposed mysterious covid floats about above sitting height. Again just my opinion on it but we all differ. So many contradicting rules it was laughable at the time imo and people won't listen at all if it gets spread across the BBC bullshit channel again.

Likewise pal. Never had one and never will, but each to their own.
And how many would have tested if the tests weren't free? If you're ill, you know you're ill. And that asymptomatic nonsense...



It won't be long and BBC news will be telling the unjabbed to get the vaccination to protect the already jabbed. Then convince the vaccinated galore to get another jab as the many jabs previously basically don't work. Then preach to the unjabbed there putting the vaccinated in danger without the vaccinations that didn't work for the jabbed to start with.

Contradicting idiots throughout and why I couldn't take it seriously and if this lock down shit comes again I don't know any who would take it seriously tbh.

If there was no such thing as the mainstream media then no one would ever know that Covid exists

Honesty I couldn't think of anything much more depressing than seeing those power hungry, self interested scientists back on the TV every day preaching their 'live in fear' doctrine to the obedient majority. And a replacement Matt Hancock clone in full force hypocrisy mode.
Fills me with dread

I always remember before lockdown that nurses were saying that it was a bad flu year until the media started its hysterics..didn't fear the 1st wave or the next..feared giving up our freedoms though..and now they know the population will bow to them..what's next?

I’m anti-vax, and I’m never ever getting the Covid-19 vaccination. The amount of young soldiers who I serve with who have been medically discharged after being fully vaccinated and contracting the virus is shocking and scary.

Am I worried? No.

Will I ever be worried? :lol: :lol:

Bring it in the more variants were exposed too the better we will develop immunity .

Just to clarify your point, are you saying the vaccination was the cause of medical discharge? If so, why? Or are you saying the vaccination didn't help and people who caught covid had been badly effected long term? What medical reasons were they discharged for?

Will I ever be worried? :lol: :lol:

Medically discharged?

For what reason?

Most people who had the vaccines are in fine health too, I had them fine they were perfect no issues. I had covid, but it was fine much less than a cold.

I know quite a few who didn't have the vaccine and are very ill now, It's not because they didn't have the vaccine, it's because they are in their fifties and that's when illnesses often start.

Too many dancing tik too nurses for people to believe the hospitals were overwhelmed.

The nightingale hospitals all closed without seeing less that 500 patients total and people who are broke because of the economic fall out of lockdowns wont tolerate such excess waste of public funds again.

Both main political parties are in disarray and frankly neither of them can risk pushing for more lockdowns as it would be political suicide.

So as someone who was always more afraid of the reaction to coving than the virus itself, I'm far less concerned this time out as I just don't see how the draconian measures that meant so much suffering can be justified again.


Good post ,no jabs for me and I’ve no idea if I’ve ever had Covid as I’m sure if I did I wouldn’t require a plastic test to find out, I’d be in bed.

Exactly pal. If you're ill, then you know it without having to test yourself with something that wasn't even effective.
And when they said about maybe having no symptoms - assymptomatic - that was just ridiculous. 'Act like you've got it.'
