OIUTF headbanger monsters have taken to shouting the odds at their grandmothers. Itâs time to listen to Thomas/TomĂĄs Ryan, Sam McConkey, Gabriel Scally, Leoâs friend Dr Matt, Maire Treasa Ni Cheallaigh and myself and take a Zero Covid approach.
I get a daily âwhen will this lockdown end?!â text from my mother these days
You heartless bastard.
Lock down will have a lot more long lasting effects on young people than covid.
Our old OIUTF comrade Dr. Martin Feeley has gone very quiet.
Iâm happy to row in behind those youâve mentioned in the LIDTF category now.
Was he not pushed out of his job for speaking out?
Maybe this has been said already, but, checking for returning holiday makers? What if it wasnât against the law when they left??
Eh mate, nothing they are doing is constitutional. This fining people for going for a drive lark, first time it makes court it will be overturned.

The whole âwhy cant we be like Australia or New Zealandâ bollix really annoys me. Youâd swear they are living in some sort of utopia where things are great. Tell that to the parents of the twin babies who were left die because they werent allowed to travel from Adelaide to Melbourne to have life saving operations. Or to the family of a terminally ill 39 year old in Queensland who were told one of his 4 kids living in NSW would only be allowed visit him before he died or the others at a cost of $16,000. Anyone who has family in any of the other states are pretty much locked in where they are. If you want to go there, you have a 2 week stay in a hotel at your expense, and having to pass 3 covid tests before being allowed restricted leave.
Yeah, they have âzero covidâ now, but a lot easier to get that under those conditions. We cant even get the island of Ireland to lock itself down as one entity, nevermind excluding all of Europe from entering. The Australian workforce is not linked to other countries in the same manner as we are here with the UK and EU. The fact that iron ore sales to China make up a substantial amount of their economy and that stayed in place made a big difference to them.
Sort out contact tracing for fuck sake and at least let us get some sort of hold on things. Months to get it sorted and ended up a complete farce where it was all but given up on. The government havent a fucking clue what to do. And this is shown by their see sawing on ideas every couple of months. Its absolutely no wonder there is zero confidence in them seeing this through as they muddle through their next disaster decision and row back on plans they issue in previous days or weeks.

Sorry, I have to laugh when people start mouthing off that things are unconstitutional or âagainst my constitutional rightsâ. They usually have no clue whatâs in the constitution and are talking through throw hole. Itâs up there with âbut, Iâm an American citizen.â
Anyway, I disagree, I donât expect it will be overturned in court.
Why canât we be like Mars so, they have zero covid.

Pity the constitution didnât allow for pandemicsâŚ
Especially when it was written in the aftermath of oneâŚ
Plus the Aussieâs and NZ havenât even begun to vaccinate people, meaning their borders are effectively shut for another 6 - 12 months.
Close the borders
In 12 months we could be like New Zealand
Maybe the lads didnât fancy putting their hard won freedom in the hands of unelected civil servant
Does that mean I have to become racist against native Irish people?
Just one more shit Christmas to go
