@JoeeggJoe @Will_Tanner In a healthy society which values debate and is happy to have difficult conversations and - equally importantly - agree to disagree, there is no need for warnings on any book. 1984 is meant to offend and make you angry / sad - that's the intent. Deal with it.

@workmanswhistle @Paul_Myburgh @vonderleyen @EU_Commission It's already spread. No country is doing the test and trace required to stop it from spreading - perhaps with exception of South East Asia.

[John Caddle @JohnCaddle1]

@Paul_Myburgh @vonderleyen @EU_Commission Unfortunately that is the case - South Africa continues to destroy its tourism by identifying new variants - getting nothing in return.

@grantshapps Finally - thank you very much for letting families reunite.

[John Caddle @JohnCaddle1]

@Brianchav @grantshapps Managing by slogans and putting out fires. Hoping it will all go away. Current Tory philosophy which translated into fuel chaos, to be followed by other types of societal disorders. The best part is they will never admit that they are at fault for anything.

[John Caddle @JohnCaddle1]

@davidvikingflag @Brianchav @grantshapps It's not foreign labour which keeps wages low, it is your own business which pays low wages and gets away with it or cannot make money otherwise. With no free market access, I am not sure where will all those extra costs go to other than back to British public.

[John Caddle @JohnCaddle1]

@grantshapps Too little too late as usual.

@NadAhm3 @merttt19987 @LeanneWheeldon2 @grantshapps This really works out the same in terms of proportion of population vaccinated, give or take as Pakistan is over 200 mil and SA is 60 mil. Politics, politics, politics - no science.

@Dodds8686 @Nkdavies792 @SkyNewsBreak I have not seen the morons filling up 5 jerry cans too much - but I have seen hundreds of cars queuing up for fuel. Perhaps we need to trust the government a bit less with their spinning stories. Especially this government which talks way more than it does.

[John Caddle @JohnCaddle1]

@hollandzpiez @BashfordAndy @SkyNewsBreak Sure - i thought it's more or less a given with an electric car. You are supposed to buy a dedicated charger and put it up in your house. Otherwise the model falls flat.

[John Caddle @JohnCaddle1]

@Nkdavies792 @SkyNewsBreak I'm not big on conspiracy theories, sorry. Especially ones with such impact. But to each one his own :)

[John Caddle @JohnCaddle1]

@BashfordAndy @hollandzpiez @SkyNewsBreak Aren't you supposed to charge at home 95% of the time with electric car scenario? There will never be enough chargepoints for all electric cars unless you can speed up the charging process to equal fossil fuels.

[John Caddle @JohnCaddle1]

@Nkdavies792 @SkyNewsBreak If there is no fuel at your local petrol station, there is a shortage - at your local petrol station. As some person has commented - there is plenty of oil in the ground too, but that does not help with your local unleaded being out of stock.

[John Caddle @JohnCaddle1]

@PlanetZuma @grantshapps Exactly this. All political, no science. Need to keep the red list for the Tory voter crowd to pretend that somehow UK borders are protected. They never were throughout the pandemic. SA community and travel is made the scapegoat.

[John Caddle @JohnCaddle1]

@grantshapps Please replace hotel quarantine with at home quarantine for fully vaccinated travellers. There is no reason to induce this level of harm and cost on poor families which have been apart for years now in some cases. You are devaluing the benefits of vaccination

[John Caddle @JohnCaddle1]

@lesleybutterwo6 @grantshapps Because India and Pakistan community seems to be far more valuable to the UK then poor South Africa on the other end of the African continent. I can't see any other reason for this.

[John Caddle @JohnCaddle1]

@sjones10 @grantshapps It is pure politics and there is no science involved in these decisions. Under Johnson government this is how it has been run of late.

[John Caddle @JohnCaddle1]

@LeanneWheeldon2 @grantshapps Exactly - seems like South Africa is repeatedly shooting itself in the foot by announcing variants to the world. No reason for it to be on the red list other than politics. So much for Commonwealth. Even Ireland took SA off its red list!

[John Caddle @JohnCaddle1]

@grantshapps What needs to happen for South Africa to be removed? When will you actually start outlying the reasons and obstacles to removal? Looks like poor 250k strong SA community living in UK can never go back to see their loved ones!
