Didn't @Dr. Gonzo point out that Sweden is more spread out mind? Bit stupid really from the anti-lockdown lot really.
-
True, though I would have expected this on Walesonline (seeing as it's more local) and other media outlets (on BBC at least anyway).
-
Not sure in all honesty. The Welsh Government are due to publish their exit strategy this morning so we might hear something then. If this is true then fair play to them, but considering the tweet is from 'The Left Wing Society' and published by the Mirror (not even Walesonline has published it and that's a subsidiary), that doesn't look too reliable. Also, not sure if it possibly falls under a small part of this article to a degree, but the Welsh Government won't be giving business relief to those with rateable values £500k and above. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-52094877 While there's obviously no clear link, you'd imagine that those businesses based in tax haven would be the same ones not eligible for the relief.

Bit of a meh article but I'll post it here anyway. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-52662119

Sure you did. In fairness, the North does have a decent amount, though that could be more due to the area BCU covers compared to the south.
-
More in the south and south east. Basically from Swansea to Newport and the surrounding valleys are the main density areas. The north has Wrexham and other towns but not as much as the south. I read somewhere that my area (Rhondda-Cynon-Taff) apparently has the highest amount of cases per 100k population in the UK, let alone Wales. However, that might have changed since then. Here's the death chart based on health board area.
-
While Wales has had its fair share of deaths, looking at the country by health board area shows that mid and west Wales has much less deaths.

You couldn't handle the greatness of Enckleman up front you wusspuss.

You're not allowed in. Piss off. Also, what daft twat even suggested this option? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-politics-52636160
-
Did you say yes?
-
Unfortunately yes, people are that thick, which has been proven enough during the pandemic.
-
Unfortunately, the thick fucking cunts won't understand that and still do it regardless. Those from England were still driving into Wales when we were in lockdown anyway.
-
Nowt wrong with the pokemon games really. Would rather that than play Call of Duty in all honesty.
-
Bit like Carnivore Chris mentioned above, if I need to do shopping it's either the small Tesco Express or Nisa nearby. After hearing the abuse my sister has had from the thick fucking cunts (from what she said), I can't be arsed with any of the main stores.

While I haven't seen it so much where I live, my mate has seen it up where he lives in the valleys and people are breaking lockdown rules. I can only see that getting worse out of frustration, despite us being in lockdown for another three weeks. But at the same time, part of the blame would be on the public if they don't do social distancing at the very least. I'm generally trying to avoid people left, right and centre atm (a bit over the top but better safe than sorry I guess) but when other's simply say 'fuck it' and do as they please, what else can you do? It's the scenario of 'damned of you do, damned if you don't' really.
-
There were two concerning parts of this for me. The first was being allowed to drive to other destinations for exercise. As well as wondering why you need to drive to do some exercise in the first place, we have had people from England coming to Wales for stupid reasons but this could cause us more problems in terms of policing the roads if traffic increases. The second part was encouraging people to go to work if you can't from home, but avoiding public transport. Unless you have a car, that's impossible to do. At the same time, hasn't this also been the message from the beginning anyway (work from home if possible and avoid public transport if possible)? While there wasn't much of a plan overall (I think people were expecting a fully detailed plan for all areas inside 15 minutes), at least there is something for consideration and that England can at least have a tiny bit more freedom, so long as they don't upgrade to ultra thick fucking cunts (which unfortunately, I'm not holding my breath). It's more than what we got from the Welsh Government at least (which I mentioned on the previous page as allowing exercise more than once a day and allowing garden centres, recycling centres and libraries to apply for reopening. No dates or plans for anything else). I'd imagine more will be detailed afterwards.

Without trying to sound horrible as I know some on here do play UT, if you're spending that much on a yearly basis to get random virtual cards, you deserve to be fisted by EA in every way imaginable. My mate told me once that he spent a couple of hundred on Simpsons: Tapped Out for premium characters and donuts, but because he never made an Origin account and he changed phone, he lost the lot.
-
My sister lives about two minutes drive from me but I've seen her once in the past two months. That sort of thing could be fine. However, as you mentioned about distance limits and in the article, that could be an issue. Using the above example, my sister lives two minutes drive from me, while my mum loves two hours in Exeter. Would the latter be too extreme and even so, could it even be enforceable?
-
EA are a joke really. They'll either buy out a copy just for the IP before butchering the IP themselves and then killing the company they bought out (hence the constant memes around it), show no regards to ethics or morals whatsoever (hence countries now looking at gambling laws after EA took it to extremes with Star Wars Battlefront 2) or both.
-
That's pretty much the only thing, but in all honesty, there's more important things to worry about than a slogan, even if it is odd. However, if that Belgium part you posted up happens later, that will put some pressure on Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland to do likewise. Personally, I think the famiy thing could work (so long as it's in close proximity) but not so much the friends part.
-
All of it. Welsh Government announced on Friday that we can now exercise more than once a day (as that was clearly enforceable before) while garden centres, recycling centres and libraries can apply to reopen. From what I read, Scotland and Northern Ireland were the same.
-
So pretty much like everyone else then?
-
I'd ask for a detailed reasoning behind that as they can't just ban you without evidence of it. Not that I'd expect much from EA mind.
-
Think ours have to review it every three weeks. Unsure if they can review it as and when. I assume Drakeford had to announce this as the three week review was due but even so, it makes a bit of a mockery of the 'four nation approach' to ending the lockdown he mentioned earlier this week.
