Coronavirus - Close the Airports

It’s time. This is done.

Are lads still watching telly to find out if they’re going to die?

I saw a clip retweeted on twitter by OEP, I don’t think I’ve ever even heard him speak, but some watched him religiously once upon a time. But it’s done, he needs to be pushed off the stage.

“Fine Gael TD Fergus O’Dowd suggested there needs to be a national day of mourning to remember all the people who have died from Covid-19, which is currently 1,714”

For fuck sake

Shur didn’t we do the same for 9/11 and I dare say they’ll probably look for one for George Floyd as well

I’m sure Limerick council will open a book of condolences

Did we have one for Diana? I know the FAI had.

Make it a bank holiday altogether and they can time it for when the pubs open back up.

Harris was probably licking his chops when Tom Parlon came out and said that Covid could add 40% -50% on to the cost of construction projects like the national children’s hospital. Whats another billion between friends on top of the €2bn already committed. A tailor made excuse for the cunt. This hospital will be like the Taj Mahal by the time they are finished. He has no concept of money

All great dictators build opulent palaces. Ours will be a children’s hospital

The most pointless restriction of the lot has been extended thankfully.

I’ve just copied and pasted the first half of the linked article below. Does the last paragraph not totally contradict the rest? It’s an offence and you can be fined or imprisoned, but it’s strongly recommended and not mandatory. I don’t get it.


Regulations requiring people entering the Republic from abroad to provide the address where they will be self-isolating for the required 14-day period have been extended for a further three weeks.

Upon arrival in the State at airports or ports, individuals are required to fill in a passenger locator form. The coronavirus measures are in place to allow authorities to check if individuals are self-isolating for 14 days as advised, and for contact tracing purposes.

Those who do not fill out the passenger locator form or who provide false details can face a fine of €2,500 or a prison term of six months.

The regulations were introduced on May 28th to last until June 18th, at which point they would be reviewed. A Department of Health spokeswoman confirmed on Thursday the regulations had been extended until July 9th, “at which stage they will be reviewed.”

“This means anyone arriving in Ireland will have to fill out a form and inform us of their whereabouts. This ensures we have an adequate contact tracing system in place,” she said.

The spokeswoman said public health advice instructing people to self-isolate for 14 days upon arriving into the State from abroad remains in place. However, she added this advice was “strongly recommended,” but not mandatory.

Yep. The only mandatory bit is the filling out the form.

This also creates a huge amount of work for @Batigol and his team get cranky when he delegates it all.

The FG magic money tree.

Somewhat sexist statement here? I did five lengthy Teams meetings between 10am and 6pm yesterday, while parenting an 18 month old, cooking , cleaning, indoor football, sorting out naps etc., while my life partner was at work.
