@SStonehouse4 @lucylou582 @BBCNews I agreed that transmission is super low. Any scientist worth their salt would cringe at the term 'no negatives whatsoever' without robust evidence behind it. I would've accepted your argument far easier if you'd just said 'there seems to be little evidence...'
@lucylou582 @BBCNews That's still covid - delayed treatment, staffing issues, whatever, it's still covid (and a shitty government). Anyway, like I said, we're arguing between ourselves when neither solution will satisfy everyone - gyms open or closed. There will be a camp that's not happy.
@lucylou582 @BBCNews This pandemic has highlighted the issues in the system we live in. This is exactly how they (Tories) thrive - they pit us against each other. While you and I argue on Twitter, they get away with their bullshit that disadvantages the poorer and we all go around blaming one another
@lucylou582 @BBCNews I know, the gov need to support businesses/ppl who are suffering financially. They're a bullshit party who prioritise the wealthy. This person should be supported so that they don't feel compelled to open. But opening and potentially risking lives isn't acceptable either.
@lucylou582 @BBCNews And be4 anybody feels the need to educate me on the importance of mental wellbeing, I suffer with anxiety and depression and ADHD, am a big advocate for mental health and am a social rights activist - lockdown has almost broken me. I still stand by what I have said.
@lucylou582 @BBCNews Tell that to ppl who have lost loved ones. My husband is a CrossFit coach - we both believe gyms shud be among the first est. to open as transmission is lower in gyms but there are other ways to enhance mental health & keep ppl fit without this. This is putting lives at risk.
@_AthleticMuscle @budgiesmuggle45 @BBCNews Yes, they should be some of the first establishments to open once restrictions ease but that's not what this story is about......restrictions haven't eased yet....
She keeps saying 'if I were in England, I could'....so why did you travel then?? I'm sorry, even when there was a corridor with Mauritius, ppl should've stayed home. Just because there's a corridor doesn't mean COVID won't surface. Stop being a seflish wank and stay home!
She basically had no answer. Thank you @hollywills for asking this question because it has been tugging on my last nerve for ages but I never bother to say it because people jump on the 'it's my job' bandwagon. But it's not ESSENTIAL. You could do your job at home.
Saying 'I don't have an issue with equality but....' is the same as saying 'no offence but' and then going on to offend.
You do have an issue with equality, otherwise you wouldn't have felt the need to comment. You'd have simply applauded the woman for standing her ground!
