    Im going to see if its  Pfizer   or not, not Pfizer then I will avoid it and pay privately later when its  available. Registration is easy enough apart from the non alphabetical  list of countries when it comes to UK and Merica etc and inability to load files separately...........guess they got their  best web designer  onto building the site.

    Entering ones date DoB could have been easier, instead of having to click back through the years, it almost numbed my finger.

    Thailand that boasts it's the hub of everything, but when in the mire it's a poor developing country....

    What is it that Thailand is developing? In thirty plus years the only developments I have seen are more monster hotels and condo's, plus some shopping malls. As to the majority of the people, they are as poor as they have ever been.

    Petitions Committee

    Commons Select Committee

    The Petitions Committee considers e-petitions submitted on Parliament’s petitions website and public (paper) petitions presented to the House of Commons, engaging the public directly with the work of the House.

    So I was incorrect with the select committee. My apologise for that.

    I said they can be debated in Parliament, I never mentioned the House of Commons.


    Select Committees in both houses are part of Parliament, they can demand evidence from and make recommendations to the Government, the Goverment must respond.

    I didn't contradict your statement, I only pointed out a fact.

    I might also point out that a 'Select Committee', has nothing to do with petitions.

    A slight correction, if the petition gains 10,000 signatures, then the Government will respond, if it reaches 100,000 signatures then a committee considers if it’s going to be debated in Parliament, most actually don’t get to debate.

    Petitions never get debated in the house of commons.  They are normally debated in another chamber within the parliament building by those who wish to attend. The outcome is never been put to parliament.

    No, its the Sinovac that doesn't work.

     

    mRNA vaccines are very effective against the Delta variant.

     

    Moderna will only be available to the private hospitals and smart people who paid in advance.

    I really hope you are correct but, as these people change their minds more often than the weather changes in the UK, I'm not holding my breath.

    I have a simple, three step plan to bring the country back to prosperity.

     

    If the population was vaccinated there would be no need for a lockdown.

     

    Step one:   Buy vaccines for everyone.

    Step two:    Inject vaccines into everyone

    Step three:  Sit back and watch the economy improve

    A simple solution to be sure BUT, where do they get the money to buy the vaccines? It has all been spent on military hardware and shipped to off shore accounts.

    AFAIK there is only one country that managed to effectively control the spread of the Virus . That is China . And how did they manage this ? Remember ? Strict lockdown for whole regions . And testing .

    But Thai government helped to spread the virus by allowing people to move to their home provinces from Bkk for Songkran etc .

    Instead of being hard and imposing tough measures when it was time for that , they did too little . And no foresight of what probably will happen , at all . 

    The mess they ( and us ) are in now could have been avoided by more intelligent measures when it was time for that .

    Foresight and intelligence!!?? There is a very serious lack of both. There always has been and I don't see it changing anytime soon. The ฿ beats any other consideration and always will.
