Would Boris Dare To Try This ?

Trudeau getting tough with the anti-vax loonies.

I doubt Boris (or Keir for that matter) would be so bold. Although it would be a useful smokescreen against partygate.

Hopefully not, it is a terrible position.
The PM should not be able to wield punishments without trials or juries. If they are breaking the law, arrest and prosecute them. The Government should not have access or power to freeze someones account because they are protesting.

Truedope is a power-hungry megalomaniac who is ruining this country with his minority government voted in mostly by immigrants who he douses with all types of financial freebies.

I'm off to bed now. Emmie, I hope that the prescription you got after the results of your MRI help with your knee pain.

[sanmac]

Obviously the wrong thread:)

[emmie]

sanmac, wrong thread....

[Stickybottle]

Probably doing the right thing

I agree that people have a right to protest

But there has to be a limit set between protest and continual and unnecessary daily disruption to the normal everyday lives of ordinary law abiding citizens

Trudeau will be voted out.

Why did he bring in compulsory vaccination for truckers - a very solitary job.

Probably because of the nomadic nature of the job ?

Hardly 'following the science' is it?

[naomi24]

I wouldn't describe it as 'daring'.... and no, Boris wouldn't do it.

No idea what the current science is

I am just going on how Covid first spread
I believe it was as a result of global international travel

I guess driving a truck is the same in micro form ?

"More than any sector of workers, truckers are constantly mobile and cross many jurisdictions," he said in an email to CBC News. "They may spend a long time in their trucks, on the road, but they also have many point of contacts across jurisdictions, and load/unload their goods in warehouses and such where we have seen outbreaks occur in previous waves.

"An unvaccinated, contagious trucker could literally be carrying the virus from place or place."

Epidemiologist Raywat Deonandan, an associate professor at the University of Ottawa, agreed unvaccinated truckers do pose some threat to contributing to community transmission and impacting the health-care system.

The science changes weekly
Almost daily

But thanks to our antipodean conspiracy theorist for another valuable contribution
Cheers sport ! Lol

[royfromaus]

You're the one who peddled the lies.

[Stickybottle]

Lol !
Whatever you say cobber
Still looking for links to your spurious conspiracy theories ?
Crack on sport ! Pmsl

[Hopkirk]

What a load of cobblers suggesting truckers are potentially major spreaders.

As a trucker myself, I can confirm we spend most of our time alone. When we aren't in our cabs we are mostly outdoors. We don't tend to spend much time in close proximity to other people.

I'm with Gromit.
