I'm also just wondering if I tried to leave the country in the near future, whether I would be allowed or not?

 

I've looked at the government guidance. Only part I can find is under the lockdown regs which says

 

You can leave if

 

  • seek medical assistance or avoid injury, illness or risk of harm (including domestic abuse)

 

so I was wondering if I could use that as an excuse ,the person(s) I'm fleeing from trying to do me harm being the government. Or whether I would have no chance under this reason? Just looking at flights, cheap as chips at the moment. 

I think you have mental health on your side here! 

It's taking it's toll, especially living in the UK. I'd say that was a valid enough reason to leave and goes with their script :)

 

My cousin moved to Dubai last week and no one questioned her the entire journey. 

Not even proof of her Coshit test.

She and a few others got there no problem, even though she expected the worst and got herself very upset prior to her journey. She said it's all being majorly milked here.

Thanks. I appreciate the real life examples. What we need to find out what is really going on.

This bird knows a good bending over, she can spot it a mile away.

 

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

 

I couldn't stop laughing at this. If they want to be serious, then they can't be saying stuff like this, it denigrates the message. However, she did her self no favours by saying she's spent more time on hotel pillows than a soft mint. 

 

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍 classic.

Someone I vaguely know on FB posted this. This is how insane people have got.

 

This is not a joke....

 

Now that I'm a second vaccine graduate, do you think it's worth writing it on the CV?
Would this give me an advantage over someone who only did the first vaccine, or got vaccinated in some alternative framework?

Yep, these idiots have lost the plot. I am sorry that they're your friend/associate. I don't wish ill on anyone, but they're going to get what they're deserve.

I'm the same. And it does bring me back to the point of possibly this is some kind of mind virus. These people in normal circumstances aren't stupid - above said person Doctorate and usually very logical and able to analyse data and situations. But unable to here. It is all very weird.....

Indeed, it is a mind virus. I just found what they wrote to be extremely sinister. These gobshites are making out that the unvaccinated are pure evil and should be treated like dogs, which they are not. Doctor my arse, he should hand his license back for that post alone.

Sorry to confuse, but doctorate (in data science) rather than a medical dr.

The first new strain to pop up like a bad smell, (which you can’t smell) was the “UK variant” which quickly spread throughout Europe and America, although no-one was actually going anywhere, not even to one another's homes or towns far less, countries, but I digress...

 

The UK variety was renamed the “Kent variant” from whence it came, although it is still known as the “UK variant” abroad. Are you with me? They had to give it a local name, because it was about to mutate into the “Bristol variant” which will no doubt morph into the “Belfast strain” and so on...

 

Then came the South African variant, which will probably become the Johannesburg strain and the Brazilian one will mutate into the Rio de Janeiro variant. You catch my drift? This requires more localised “surge testing” to keep abreast of the “cases” coming to a post-code near you!

They will use the UK Variant to stop  people from having holidays at home, popular seaside towns will go under this year , Sturgeon will not allow anyone to leave to travel over the border using the the Variant as an excuse.

I am certain in Dubai you have to wear masks outside. And even in a car when there are passengers.

An employer responds:

 

Yes, this has given you the edge with us. We can offer you a post in a couple of months time conditional only on you remaining: alive, conscious and - as office space is limited - without large swellings or superfluous extra limbs. As we have just re-carpeted it would be also appreciated if you do not leave large quantities of unknown green ooze around.

I am thinking of leaving permanently to Costa Rica with my family in next few months. I read the list of 15 reasons Irish govt have for leaving country, noticed the bastards dont have emigrating up as a reason. Not saying I wont try

 

Sorry to hear that, but I can completely understand. Seems like this country is going absolutely nowhere fast and I fear for my family.

 

I don't have a a wife or children of my own so I'm planning to head off to Spain next week on my own. Masks outside there, 10pm curfew and everything shut at 6pm but it's a sad sign of the times that this seems like utopia compared to what's going on here.

 

Fuck knows if we'll ever be able to come back if they bring in this 2 week hotel shite and vaccination passports. Real rock and a hard place type stuff.

It's worse than that in Spain, they've sealed off the Communities, you can't drive, say from Catalonia into Aragon. They've Even sealed off entire cities such as Alicante, so you can't leave at the weekend (well, you can if you go out on a minor road, but you may be caught).

I hear Tenerife isnt too bad re mask wearing outside, only half complying and the police arent hassling anyone. In Ireland it seems more than half here wearing em outdoors and it isnt even mandatory. Dont know what mainland Spain is like

Yeah I know, I'm looking at Sevilla which is in Andalucia which is at the lowest level at the moment. There aren't many options sadly other than make a big jump to somewhere like Costa Rica like Owen's decided to do.
