    My man on the ground in la ciudad de méxico tells me that everything there is a total free for all, the health minister is literally on the beach, etc. Get me on a plane there immediately.

    Yes, it is a free for all. The cases are bad, but not worse than places with restrictions.

    But what about the nurses Pepe, do they sometimes feel a little down? These are the important questions to determining if we should be allowed to live or not.

    They do feel down sometimes. Then they spend the weekend in Acapulco partying in Disco Beach and feel much better afterwards.

    I am a bit more optimistic about FREEDOM. You won't see a full stadium this side of the current season, but I would expect us to be in tier two/summer-like conditions by Easter.

    I thought that based on the trend of statistics, but it ain't the message coming out.

    Tier 3 to Tier 2 is the big jump as although it retains some restrictions and masks and things, it allows people to have some semblance of a social life. The lower covid areas (Devon, Lincolnshire, East Yorks) should arguably be there already as a test case.

    Looks like we're getting a curfew this weekend. It's not like I have anywhere to be, but still

    Insiders expect this means that the Netherlands will have a curfew, possibly running from 8pm to 4am, although it is unclear if there is a parliamentary majority in favour of such a move.

    You chaps complaining about the ever ongoing lockdown, all the while we are topping the charts.

    Oxford University research platform - show that the UK to have the worst seven-day average of new daily Covid-19 deaths per million people - a rate of 16.54 per 1,000,000.

    My point being we seem to have stricter lockdown rules than 'some' countries, but are still suffering more. Maybe we just have more fat/old bastards than them.

    The fact you treacherous cunts palm your parents off onto minimum wage ethnics as soon as they stop acting as a source of financial support is probably why.

    Europeans are mad for their curfews it seems. Doesn't it just push all the necessary activity (shopping etc) into a much smaller window and increase contact?

    Europeans and proto-Europeans (the Quebeckers have done it here as well). It's even more nonsensical here, as most fun has been cancelled for months and anything deemed "non-essential" already shuttered, so instead of preventing a few nights out or whatever I suppose the intended effect is supposed to be, it does as you suggest. Forcing more people into doing the essential things they have to do in a smaller window of time. It's 'safety theatre' taken to its logical extreme.

    The main thing is that most of the population just don't give a fuck - people here still have parties/visit friends etc. Our upstairs neighbour still has people around all the time, delivery drivers roll up not wearing masks etc. They're just a really stubborn group and there's a bit of a lack of social norms.

    The Turks have the best Curfews. It's done by age so that the dirty youngsters can only pass it about amongst themselves. Before returning home and... well...

    Hear, hear, my French brethren.

    I've said it before and I'll say it again, this damage is irreversible. The generation affected have now had their perception of life permanently disfigured. To have seen that all your freedoms can be taken away from you and your life made a misery by a higher power will mean none of it will be as meaningful as it once was.

    Things immediately went back to normal last summer. There will be some soppy cunts that are still washing their hands red raw after touching every doorhandle, but most people will move on as soon as they are allowed to.

    For people like me in their 30s it will be remembered as a fucking awful waste of a period of our lives, but people in their formative years will probably be far more affected by it. All the stuff you experience between say 16 and 24 which they are missing out on.

    It hasn't been so long of a period that you can't make up for lost time. Just take a year off work or retire earlier if you feel that robbed.

    Don’t worry, Taz. You’ll be back to not shagging tick tings by the summer and by next Christmas this will all be a memory. We will get back to normal.

    It's not really about lost experiences that could have been because as you say, it's only 12 months (even if it is 12 months at my peak physical condition). It's about the revelations and awakenings about the futility of it all.

    You may not like it but it but this is what peak performance looks like.

    Actually the rest for my strange backpain was needed and there's no way I would have voluntarily stayed off the football pitch/dancefloor so meh I can hack it, it's my weaker compatriots I fight for.

    I'm not here to propose sensible alternative solutions, I'm here to lash out and spout toxicity as I act out of self-interest. I really fucking need my sauna back during these bleak winter months in this climate. The football, clubs and all the rest I can wait for.

    with the way the overton window has been dragged to the right for the last 50 years, i'm a bit worried by what the left would need to do to be considered "moderate", though.

    also polite reminder that the loud twitter crazies aren't entirely representative. for either side, tbf.

    The Overton window (if it exists) was hauled sharply to the left by World War II and has just been drifting back since.

    Covid might haul it somewhat left again (though not as much).

    I spose one's takeaway is largely dependent on whether you think that's a good thing or not.

    I don't think it's been dragged by some magical invisible hand (like that of the market, lol), or that it's been forced on people, though. I'm not even disputing that the Overton window is largely a reflection of the autonomous beliefs and opinions of the public at large. My main issue is with Very Sensible Centrists (not a dig at you @Spikey M , even if I was taking the piss), who seem to decide what they stand for and what they believe in based purely on what is bang in the middle of an inherently volatile spectrum (not the one we're all clearly on), rather than starting with their opinions and then figuring out where they are on it afterwards.

    Makes about much sense as watching one of those painfully "balanced" BBC current affairs shows, where they'll frame something like IS THE EARTH FLAT as a debate, and coming away from it smugly telling everyone you think it's half flat and half round. Or like being a lifelong Lib Dem supporter, which makes no sense cus their "ideology" is basically a quadrennial strategic decision based on where the other two are.

    I've heard all that stuff before, but I'm yet to ever meet a real life example of it. For what it's worth, I voted for the Lib Dems when Cleggers was in charge, but every other election I voted Labour. Even when Corbyn was in charge and I don't even like him.

    I have no issue with the concept of being a centrist though and in the real world it's far more likely that a centrist would just have some views they share with the left and some views they share with the right (which I do), rather than this idea that being a Centrist points to me being impassive on the Rwandan Genocide.

    They are dickheads, but every modern self-styled 'centrist' is to the left of their seventies/eighties/nineties equivalents on pretty much everything except industrial policy and taxation, so the spectrum can't have moved right, let alone consistently for fifty years. The Great British Public - the actual centrists who want higher benefits but only for people they personally think deserve them - are to the right of those people, but would have still moved left across similar issues over the decades, and they don't set the terms of the wanky debate[s] within which 'centrists' position themselves.
