Told ye earlier today.

Long live the fear

Iggy · April 9, 2021, 5:03pm

Gonna need more hotel rooms. A lot more.

Fulvio_From_Aughnacloy · April 9, 2021, 5:06pm

You still think you’re getting away this summer?

By this weekend they’ll be talking about caps on entry. Nailed on.

They couldn’t organise Quarantine properly for a couple of hundred people - there’s not a fucking chance they’ll be able to do it for thousands.

This is the same Department that has no track-record of delivery and at the same time is supposed to be in vaccine “ramp-up”

I guarantee I’ll be flying this summer. I’ve flown a number of times in the last year and I can’t see why I wouldn’t this summer.

glasagusban · April 9, 2021, 5:10pm

It will be a shit show. It’s going to be a long two months until the EU has the vaccine certs ready. All I hope is that this is the final nail in the coffin for this shit show of a government.

Fulvio_From_Aughnacloy · April 9, 2021, 5:15pm

Where and when did you fly last year?

Things are bad when Rory is our most biting satirist.

glasagusban · April 9, 2021, 5:19pm

None of your business mate.

Fulvio_From_Aughnacloy · April 9, 2021, 5:21pm

I think you are either lying or you broke regulations.

It’s a strange time for you to make this revelation.

Bisto · April 9, 2021, 5:24pm

You’d want your head examined if you aren’t planning on getting out of here this summer pal…for your mental health alone ,escape this doom and gloom …

Tim_Riggins · April 9, 2021, 5:25pm

Looks like I’ll be going non res. How many days we into the year?

Tim_Riggins · April 9, 2021, 5:26pm

If they think that Polish lads will stick to this they have another thing coming.

Julio_Geordio · April 9, 2021, 5:31pm

631 I think

Fulvio_From_Aughnacloy · April 9, 2021, 5:34pm

I doubt it will be feasible/possible. If we can’t get the country back open up first then you can forget foreign travel being made feasible.

If the courts don’t find this detaining someone from Israel who’s vaccinated and has tested negative a few times for COVID, I think the world has officially gone mad

Horsebox · April 9, 2021, 5:37pm

Haha. This is actually a good thing. We’re near endgame now so the more batshit crazy stuff NPHET recommend and our useless, spineless, pathetic government implement the better. When sanity prevails in 6 or 12 months and we are looking back on what we have done in the last 12 months people will say never again.

myboyblue · April 9, 2021, 5:51pm

Who from NPHET is gonna be first against the wall?

Tierneevin1979 · April 9, 2021, 5:53pm

They won’t, they’ll be too busy collecting nuts and berries.
