Proposal before Cabinet is for curfew on hospitality to be 8pm, not 5pm. Measures to be reviewed on January 11th

1. Glad they rolled back. Makes more sense.

2. Now watch everyone be so thankful for 8pm.

   And *just like that* the government has successfully introduced more restrictions/curfews and kept the public in a somewhat positive mood as opposed to coming out and just announcing 8pm right at the start.

3. How predictable

4. How do people seriously still listen to this shit?

5. Just enough time for a few pints before heading to the house parties 🎉

6. Lol as if the 5pm kite flown wasn’t all a big charade to make us feel oh so relieved when the government instead generously allows us to stay in the pub a whole three hours later

7. Do not be thankful for the 3 extra hours, be angry for the 3.5 lost hours

   Still a complete shambles by the government

8. Either it makes sense to roll back the hours to 5pm or close entirely, or just leave it as is. What’s the justification for this?

9. “To be reviewed on January 11th” what’s the odds these restrictions last months like they always do?

10. All the same, please fuck off.

11. This feels pointless, why bother?

    Early sittings will just be packed till 8pm, what difference is that vs midnight?

12. Ah yes, force everyone to go drinking at house parties where all the infected children are, very intelligent.

13. Lol, this fucking sub today, it’s like a pre-school class who’ve had their box of sweets taken away.

15. I really do hate this country sometimes

16. So this is to protect vaccinated people?

    I guess NPHET have said the vaccine protection is wearing off.

17. When is this supposed to take effect by? What an absolute farce.

    Hardly gonna be “enforcing it” tomorrow like?

18. At the very least have they told them to fuck off with their plan for a cinema curfew?

19. This is to get people used to 12 o’clock closing times. When these restrictions lift it will be back to 12 o’clock then gives the government many more months to not get back to the normal 2-3am. These people are slimey fucking cunts.

20. 5, 7 or 8. Which is it fuckers? Give one answer and 1 only at the beginning you useless pricks.

21. Who got to pick the magic January 11th date out of the tombola?

22. Time to join the protests I think

23. This will change fuck all. As said above, time to get some pints in and head to house parties. Especially over the holidays they’ll increase big time.
