The 'Great Communicator' she say: Pubs to be closed in Aberdeen as lockdown renewed 25 minutes ago Lockdown restrictions are being reimposed in Aberdeen due to a coronavirus cluster in the city, First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has announced. She said pubs and restaurants would be closed as part of the measures. Ms Sturgeon said there had been 54 cases in the "significant outbreak" and that the cluster had now involved community transmissions. Under the lockdown measures which have been reintroduced, people are being told not to travel to the city. Those living in the area should not travel more than five miles for leisure purposes, or go into each others' houses. Travelling for work or education is permitted, but other travel is not advised. Ms Sturgeon said it had been "extremely reluctantly" agreed to reimpose the restrictions after discussions with NHS Grampian, Police Scotland and the city council. The restrictions will be reviewed in seven days' time and may be extended beyond a week if necessary. Ms Sturgeon said a list of the 20 licensed venues involved in the outbreak would be published later on Wednesday. The first minister said that people who had visited these places recently should be "extra vigilant" about symptoms. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-53666665 So your guess is as good as mine. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rousseau 9,462 Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Leicester was placed in lockdown recently too, but I don't think it really hampered the football team. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill 13,717 Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 From what I’ve seen, it isn’t opening pubs that is the problem. It’s the appalling behaviour of the people using those pubs. The display of boorish arrogance and rank irresponsibility I saw in An Aberdeen pub last week leaves little room for surprise at what’s happening in that shithole of a city. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacK1950 2,239 Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 This was a case of the "sheep" gathering in flocks to witness the defeat of their team and totally disregarding safety measures,IMHO. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
