Coronavirus - Dig In, It's going to be a while yet

He was surely ball hopping. No one believes the government commissioned a poll for publishing

I’ll take this one. If its published by the SBP then it definitely isn’t commissioned by the gov. There’s some amount of fucking eejits out there.

But if it’s commissioned by the Sindo, it is.

No, it isn’t. As you well know. But sure spread bullshit and smear while at the same time screaming “fake news” at any other stuff you don’t like.

SF IRA were claiming a mandate to govern based off SBP polls at the end of February. While they ran public rallies knowing Covid 19 was in the community.

But now is not the time for political point scoring so I even hesitate to bring it up.

Smoke and mirrors. The HSE have said that none of “our” nurses have died.

But the Irish Times reported that a nurse had died.

The deliberately opaque phrasing from certain quarters during this crisis has been quite the sight to behold.

The Brits were at it the other day with them seemingly only counting people who had died in hospitals as part of the figures.

Either way - it would seem fairly clear that Paddy Cosgrave was talking through his hole when he said 4 nurses had died. And purely to try and win an internet argument

[Elvis_Brandenberg_Kr]

Is it possible that the unfortunate nurse worked for an agency in a nursing home, for example, and wasn’t employed by the HSE, thereby giving them deniability?

I can confirm that Government departments & agencies have been working with the media on efforts to water-down reporting to avoid public panic.

Seriously tho — Hiring a PR man when half the country are being laid off. The surge in bot accounts. Surge in PR photos. The cliched speeches and then the distancing of themselves from measures in the last speech and putting it all on Dr.Tony … A dog with a mallet up his arse can see what’s going on here.

Did you see his Mr Taoiseach mug ?

…ntion seeking contrarian no doubt but him getting it so wrong about Dublin GAA blinds people to the fact that gets it a hell of a lot more right on political matters than he gets things wrong.I’d imagine living under Bolsonaro gives him a big head start in being able to decipher bullshit from reality.

How long has he lived under Bolsonaro, mate?

[Thomas_Brady]

I did. I give him points for that in fairness.

[TheUlteriorMotive]

once we end the lock down we can start the public rallies too

[carryharry]

We can clearly see what your up to here alright Bob.

[Appendage]

The Sun says 42000 Wuhanese died. Massive cover up with the numbers. I can’t believe that.

[eoghanruadha]

The Deaths…the cover up …or The Sun?

[carryharry]

I’ll not research as I wouldn’t know where to start but if they have a high % of elderly population to start with that number is far from inplausible.

[Copper_pipe]

Its a bit quiet in Northern Italy at the moment…

The USA on the otherhand…

@Batigol is having a handy day in DUB

Dont know who is less believable the sun or the Chinese government. Haven spoken to Chinese friend living over he said what’s being reported is a lie

@artfoley

And there’s more seats there than FG and FF to form a government, they failed. Barely even tried at the start in fact.
