No - the testing will now be being done at the terminalscrewy wrote: 27 Mar 2022, 10:14Got an email from CPS parking this morning saying that the drive through testing site has now closed and to drive to the terminal.
Does this mean an end to pre boarding testing.?

Naah! Stephen…that was a full-blown frontal attack. Take a look at his wife’s expression when Chris Rock makes the crack about her.

Re: Current Affairs
Can't stand these awards ceremonies and the acceptance speeches are truly cringeworthy.
Instead we watched the highlights of the World Skating Championships on BBC iPlayer. Much more entertaining than a load of luvvies with their faux appreciation of each other.

I watched a documentary about King Edward VIII. Glad we got rid of him, what a traitor, he should have been shot at dawn.

Fascinating documentary. Not surprised by the animosity of the Queen Mother towards him.Bensham33 wrote: 28 Mar 2022, 12:40I watched a documentary about King Edward VIII. Glad we got rid of him, what a traitor, he should have been shot at dawn.

Re: Current Affairs
As one commentator said ... 'it has certainly advanced the "cancel culture" agenda'.
If Smith had have handled it properly instead of like a thug the 'joke' would have been forgotten before the end of the night. His actions made sure it has been headlines all day (although given Hollywood luvvies that was maybe his attention ... grab another headline).

It was never about parties, not for me, it was about the Prime Minister lying, especially to parliament. Remember he claimed there were no parties. No I ain't happy because the lying, cheating, incompetent scrote is still in office.

Agreed ... I have always said it was not about parties ... especially since I am sure most of the population bent/broke the rules when it suited them ... it was about the incessant lies, incompetence and misinformation streaming out of number 10.Bensham33 wrote: 29 Mar 2022, 12:30It was never about parties, not for me, it was about the Prime Minister lying, especially to parliament.

No short memory at all, I would have wanted Blair out as well had he lied. Let's have another enquiry.

If you don't remember his lies you do have a short memory. Lies which cost countless lives. Lies which Putin has used as one of his excuses for the slaughter in Ukraine.Bensham33 wrote: 29 Mar 2022, 13:15No short memory at all, I would have wanted Blair out as well had he lied.

Then , if that wasn't enough, it's the lying afterwards to misdirect and cover it up. Johnson misled the House of Commons and that's a resignation matter. No ifs, no buts

So, from no gatherings, to some gatherings but he didn’t know anything about them, to attending gatherings, to a birthday gathering that he didn’t know anything about because he wasn’t there, but oh yeah, he’s then remember that he was .
Please try and defend that.

I don't think Blair is a shining example to have picked ... if we are using the old 'well look at what so-and-so' did' argument, maybe we should focus on the corruption of Walpole in 1712Bensham33 wrote: 29 Mar 2022, 13:15No short memory at all, I would have wanted Blair out as well had he lied.

Exactly, look at the dichotomy between the dignity and following of guidance shown by the Queen at Philips funeral versus those who apparently felt the rules did not apply to themGill W wrote: 29 Mar 2022, 15:37For me it's the law breaking by the people who made the laws while the vast majority of us were doing the right thing.
