FunsterJohn Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 FunsterJohn - 2020-04-26 9:59 PM You're being very silly now.....why would i need to prove something i've never claimed? Now.....for the THIRD and final time, if Cummings was merely just 'an observer' as you claim, then what was he doing taking an 'active role' at those meetings as reported by the two attendees? I await your response with interest. Because sometimes committees invite observers to give advice. Because the government can form a committee of medical experts and that's called 'the committee'. Sometimes the government will ask the committee to allow other observers and interested parties to be present and these interested parties may be different at every committee meeting. Sometimes the medical experts on such a committee will wish to have other parties in order to question them on matters political. These observers and others aren't 'on' the committee. I'm not surprised though that this distinction is beyond you. You're the expert who claimed that Jacob Rees Mogg operated a hedge fund and that he'd moved his operations to Ireland. As the PM's adviser why shouldn't Cummings ask questions and answer questions? The distinguished epidemiologist Prof Ferguson clearly stated that the committee had ''A number of observers who did not interfere with business at all. No government 'spin doctor' was 'on' this committee. Most people are intelligent enough to know what being 'on' a committee means. I'm glad though that John52 now appears to be backpedalling on his lie and that you yourself admit that Cummings isn't a member of the committee. Well, you're denying that you ever said it anyway.

Have you any evidence then that anyone said Cummings was 'actually a member of the committee' *-) There is an obvious difference between 'on the committee' (unofficial) and a 'member of the committee' (official) - which I suspect you realise which is why you set up your straw man by changing what I said Yes, you said it higher up this thread. Stop squirming, you're embarrassing yourself. Quote it then I already have. Stop being so pathetically childish. You're still embarrassing yourself. You did what you often do, lied and hoped no one would notice. You were found out. Now get over it and grow up. If what you say was true, all you would need to do is press the quote button, instead of all your silly bluff and bluster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunsterJohn Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 John52 - 2020-04-25 8:41 AM Well that would have been better than relying on BoJo's spin doctor's advice who is on the advisory panel. Because the scientific advice was to isolate as soon as possible, not to dither about for a couple of months till the virus got a hold. There's your quote and a little later you confirmed that we're discussing Cummings. Cummings is not 'on' the advisory panel. You lied. Stop embarrassing yourself.

One attendee said he felt Cummings’ interventions had sometimes inappropriately influenced what is supposed to be an impartial scientific process and the other said the group was to provide “unadulterated scientific data” without any political input. Observing is one thing....taking an active role is quite another and can obviously influence what is supposed to be an impartial process. you yourself admit that Cummings isn't a member of the committee. Well, you're denying that you ever said it anyway. Yes i denied saying he was so why would i 'admit' to something i'd never said?

He's a liaison between the committee and the PM. The penny may drop eventually. Are the others who contribute occasionally as visitors also members of the committee? You probably think they are.

But this is not about people who are without a home and are therefore in dire need of basic facilities. That is a very valid but a very different discussion. What people have an issue with, is the people who do have a home and who despite that, CHOOSE to leave it in order to travel, in some cases many many miles, to areas that they know will have minimal, if any, facilities when they get there... What if everyone with a MH, campervan, caravan,stealth-camper or tent, just decided to head off to somewhere "nicer", claiming it was to "isolate" ? Only for them all to end up *"roughing-it" and scratting around for sourcing drinking taps, toilets, bins etc (*I'm being diplomatic with the "roughing-it" phrase)? The old "...what if everyone did it..?.." springs to mind. ..and please lets not trot out the go-to ""nimby" label or pretend that these folk all live in crammed squalid bedsits etc, and therefore have a need to escape.. I am no fan of the way this government has has handled this crisis,it's been too slow to act and too ill-defined with its advice and I get the blame-shifting thing but this "lockdown", as ill defined as it has been, should apply to everyone. (What I want more than anything is to be able to see, and hold my children and young grandchildren (one of which is 6 weeks old) and I dare say that every parent/grandparent feels the same...but the vast majority have followed the rules/guidelines, and have not visited anyone else's home). Should we all just think sod it ? (presumably because the PM went to the 1000 acre plus Chequers estate? or because Prince Charles travelled to a different palace/castle to recuperate? ) No. (is that "fair"? no...but life isn't fair, it is what it is). For those that think that this stay put rule doesn't apply to them- What makes them so "special"?.. :-S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barryd999 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 That is the kind of reaction (and worse) I think you will get if you flout the rules in a motorhome Im afraid. Its pretty indefensible really if you have a home and are not forced into the van. I really wouldnt want to be in a motorhome right now unless I was on a private field with my own tap and waste access. Even then you will be limited on shopping to what the motorhome can store so will have to make more trips. I think I can get maybe four burgers and an Ice cream in my MH Freezer. most public toilets are shut, water sources will be scarce and black waste disposal nigh on impossible. On what planet would pouring black waste into a dog pooh bin be acceptable? I know for sure if you turfed up in the upper Dales in a camper your presence would be quickly noticed and you wouldnt be there long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, so you're wrong again globebuster - 2020-04-28 12:18 PM You know bugger all about the hospitals down here, or anything else come to that - apart from what you read in the Beano maybe. Came direct from an Official at the Hospital and was reported on Radio Cornwall - but I'm sure you know better *-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birdbrain Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 John52 - 2020-04-28 9:35 AM Birdbrain - 2020-04-28 9:25 AM John52 - 2020-04-28 9:21 AM Birdbrain - 2020-04-28 9:06 AM Thankfully not everyone with a motorhome or caravan thinks like you or Devon and Cornwalls main hospital might not be so quiet Well at least the hospitals in other areas wouldn't be so busy - especially if people left the crowded areas and went to the empty areas of Devon & Cornwall where they can self isolate - so Treliske Hospital remains quiet. Where would all those folk get water or more importantly get rid of their human waste They could get water from public taps, filling stations etc, and if the Council has closed the public facilities get rid of human waste the same way the locals get rid of their dog waste. If you weren't so desperate to find something to criticise, you would be more concerned about how the growing number of homeless living on the streets are getting rid of human waste now the public facilities are closed,. https://www.theguardian.com/society/2020/apr/27/london-coronavirus-sacked-hospitality-workers-sleeping-rough By closing public facilities, Councils have evaded responsibility for keeping them safe, but they have created a far bigger problem elsewhere. Putting up notices telling people not to foul the pavements without giving them an alternative, is a poor substitute for the free public toilets they used to provide.

jumpstart Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 Barry....That’s all very well for those who “flout” the advise, but some who are not “lifers” have sold their home and were aiming to tour before buying again. I would have been one had this arrived now. So through no fault of their own they are stuck in a van until the house market opens again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
