They’ll put a toll on all the rocks in Lahinch to boost the tourism revenue.
Hopefully that wasn’t too early in the conference

Well done to @Heyyoubehindthebushes, @TheUlteriorMotive, @Tierneevin1979, @Tassotti, @Thomas_Brady, and co. Lying about your travel history in order to avoid quarantine packages carries the joint-longest sentence on the list, with a potential penalty of 10 years in prison under the UK’s strict new Covid travel rules.
@KinvarasPassion, @Little_Lord_Fauntleroy and @pudns were dumb enough to think that sexual activity with a child would carry a stiffer sentence.
“Ladies, gentlemen, queen-king unicorns, we are pproaching peak madness. Please ensure your safety belts remain fastened.”
For reference, here are the other sentences:
- Sexual Assault: 10 years [Section 3(4)(b) of the Sexual Offences Act of 2003]
- Racially-motivated assault: 2 years [Section 29, Crime and Disorder Act of 1998]
- Child Abduction: 7 years [Section 4, Child Abduction Act of 1984]
- Sexual Activity with a Child: 5 years [Section 16, Sexual Offences Act of 2003]
- Intent to injure her Majesty the Queen: 7 years [Section 3, Treason Act of 1842]
- Possession of child pornography: 3 years [Section 66, Coroners and Justice Act of 2009]
- Causing death by careless driving: 5 years [Section 20, Road Safety Act of 2006]

They could smuggle it through the existing forgery laws but there is too much opposition to it.
Big business loves nothing more than big government . Look at how big business adores the EU

Some lads need to walk away for a few days. Rocko might consider locking down all the COVID threads again for the weekend. Its not doing Some Lads Here any good.
By September it’ll be all things lads miss about the lockdown.
We’ll have a lovely auld summer yet.

Is Newsweek a reputable source? Is a professor at Stanford University Medical School a reliable expert?

Sunetra Gupta is an infectious disease epidemiologist and a professor of theoretical epidemiology at the Department of Zoology, University of Oxford and she got it hopelessly wrong. She was all over the media back in the day when the world was “done with Covid”. Quiet enough lately though.
Listen, Jay could be right but the general medical consensus urges a more cautious approach. We have got glimpses of what your preferred “let it rip” approach would result in and it ain’t pretty, unless you hate old people.
Your missing the point. Lockdowns will do damage to more lives than the couple of thousand lives it’s meant to have saved.
You’re
Ahh lad if your commenting on grammar we are wasting our time here.
