I read one tweet from that boy Sim and it quotes citing the decision 'the indicators were to be balanced with other factors'. I assume then that the 'other factors' were probably never revealed but taken at face value, despite being a top secret, or in other words "Because we say so!" type 'balanced'. Laugh

Anyway, I'm pretty bored of all this malarkey but appreciate the need to dig in and turf it out. I'm just a bit disappointed that we've not been treated as grown-ups and afforded more transparency. She also fucked up by not hitting the west central scotland hotspots way before she eventually had to do with the Nov 20 T4 restrictions. It was way too late by then, and the corona was oot the bag!

Those 'other factors' are mentioned in the tweet I just posted and are also in the full decision. Nothing 'top secret' about it.

See there's been a leak of the advice given by public health officials for last week to the SNP.

The advice was to put us into tier 2. Nasty Nic kept up in tier 3 anyway Monty Oh Well

Surely to God that Nasty Nic lowers the tier tomorrow. If it does get lowered then it doesn't come into effect until Friday I believe? Which would be five days before the Christmas grace/no holds barred period. It'll make absolutely no difference lowering our tier a mere five days before then, so there's no justification in keeping us in tier 3.

She wont do that this week. Our numbers will have gone through the roof as students all getting their tests before going home for Christmas. Monty Oh Well

This is the first we have seen confirmation of it, as far as I am aware. The Petitioners in that case are considering an appeal on the back of this leaked info (though I cant see it having an impact tbh).

They've already said why they're not changing the levels, it's because Christmas is going to be a free for all. This isn't news :Laugh

Will be interesting to see how the government respond to this.

Don't think anyone would argue that these workers dont deserve to be paid more - but these guys are still in work and that work is fairly secure (the same goes for the NHS workers tbh). Meanwhile there will be loads of people who have been put out of work during the pandemic who will not receive any Christmas bonus or paycheck for that matter - and be wondering why those that remain in work are being rewarded.
