@BBCSport Fantastic achievement and well done… but for my reckoning as little as it does carry I know… the Sport personality of the year should be Kevin Sinfield, and yea he’s retired from professional sport. But he’s a sports personality still & doing amazing feats for amazing causes…
@TheSun The nation technically is in mourning... when the queen goes it will be longer, and even more somber. I guarantee not one person will complain about their extra days off work for the queens passing! Also in Thailand when their monarch died all tv was changed to black and white!!
@BBCNews What about stating that 1/250,000 get a clot?!? Women taking the pill are more at risk!?! Your job is to educate with a headline not scaremongering! Appalling... you are reviewing the papers, choosing a woeful incorrect statement to do so!
@ladbible Risk of blood clots for women taking the pill is higher... maybe give headlines that aren’t intended to question and push people from getting a vaccine offered. Or cause undue worry to people already second guessing the vaccine or not...
@WenlockRoss@MateJokes @MikeBubbins It comes from the treasury and it's funded by taxpayers. The basic agreement is that the Queen gets the grant in exchange for surrendering all profits from the Crown Estate — the family's massive portfolio of properties — to the government.
@DJ_Clamp @MikeBubbins And yet not once have I said about their tourism draw... which is only £500-600 million of the money they draw! I will admit didn’t know that about Stonehenge... I believed people went because of its history not too unlike why people visit the Coliseum
@WenlockRoss@MateJokes @MikeBubbins Because all the money they make goes into the taxpayer purse. so in turn the grant from that is what pays them their money...
@richierees30 @MikeBubbins Norte Dame more visited than that... Vatican City visited by millions more... yet why not screaming for the removal of their primary owners? For revenue 🤷🏻♂️ and a boost to the GDP for said countries...
@Flangedangle @sheepherd3r @Lewisdpi@pembyfly@EniAlu@piersmorgan But at one point in time it was the new advice! At some point there is risk/reward? It is the law, but prior to it been law did you wear a seatbelt? You don’t get branded, would you take the flu vaccine? Even though it is changed every year? So doesn’t have years of testing??
@sheepherd3r @Lewisdpi@Flangedangle@pembyfly@EniAlu@piersmorgan Do you know how vaccines get approved? What is your stance on the early vaccines for children? The MMR for example? Do you believe there is a chance for autism if given?
@Flangedangle @sheepherd3r @Lewisdpi@pembyfly@EniAlu@piersmorgan My choice won’t endanger other people, you are welcome to not have the vaccine too! You should then be known to not had it, as you then become a risk! So you wear a seat belt, even though years ago people were told they were a risk to your health and shouldn’t wear one?
@sheepherd3r @Lewisdpi@Flangedangle@pembyfly@EniAlu@piersmorgan You await 2023 to have your vaccine if you wish... but I’ll trust people who’ve spent a bit of time studying biology, microorganisms and medicines. Question? Do you wear a seatbelt?
@Flangedangle@kinglolking@pembyfly@EniAlu@piersmorgan The vaccine for this virus has been around for years, Pfizer have been developing it for a while, just wasn’t specific to Covid... hence their capability to create a vaccine so quickly. They discovered the protein to attack... and in turn created the vaccine.
@Flangedangle@pembyfly@EniAlu@piersmorgan How long is long term? Just out of curiosity? A week? A year? 10 years? As technically speaking we don’t know the long term effects of using a smart watch as they’ve not been around a long time? The smartest minds in the world have worked on the vaccine... and you know better?
@AlisonHammond Not missing something, but if you end lockdown too soon, even with a vaccine in play, you will then get more and more variants some maybe vaccine resistant. By reducing lockdown slowly you stop this... or can control this better.
