  1. Any chance you could limit the amount of hours we’re allowed work in a day or week so we can stop overdoing it there aswell?

    By the end of that sentence I realised he’s not reading this.

    But fuck him anyway.

  2. That’s unbelievably condescending, he really does treat the Irish population like children doesn’t he.

  3. 8pm just means people will bring back their friends to less sanitised and less policed homes.

    It would be safer to keep restaurants in particular open! Constant cleaning and monitoring in place.

  4. Make sure to tuck yourselves in straight at 8 o clock! Or it’ll be a bag of coal and no socialising at all next year!

    What a condescending smarmy prat, still thinks he’s in the classroom.

    Edit: also at least they are making sure I cant overdo watching movies or a play, but I can binge on as much lovely mass as I desire.

  5. absolute bollox! on my way home from work (in a pub) last night I walked past 3 bookie shops open, how are they any safer than a pub?

  6. Closing hospitality early will clearly reduce the amount of transmission in the community which is out of control right now

    I don’t understand why people don’t believe this…

    Maybe I’m just crazy?

  7. One of the highest vax uptakes, and boosters well on the way and they still treat the population like children who should be grateful for any allowances they give. This lot are probably having late night parties and gatherings just like Boris and his crew next door while they play everyone else here like fools.

  8. They haven’t a clue about the social side of life..

    Bars will become prinks and then everyone back to a mates house for a right ol session in their kitchen..

    Numbers will be far greater than they thought.. I hope not…

  9. The 8pm rule means people will meet up at 11 instead of 4, it’s a token measure by a government without any real strategy besides waiting for shit to hit the fan and imposing lockdowns
