Council Health and Safety Inspectors Tell Pubs Not to Refill Glasses “to Prevent Covid Spread”

by Will Jones
22 May 2022 10:14 AM

Covid hysteria continues among local councils, as health and safety inspectors tell bars and pubs they should refuse to refill glasses from taps to prevent the spread of Covid. MailOnline has the story.

Many an ale lover enjoys drinking from their own glass or tankard at the pub.

But the common practice of refilling glasses is falling foul of Covid concerns.

Council health and safety inspectors – who are carrying out checks for the first time since the pandemic began – are urging bars to use fresh glasses every time to stop the risk of tap nozzles being contaminated.

Pubs are not specifically required by law to do this but they are obliged to serve drinks in a hygienic way. 

This has just gone too far now.

Worth reading in full.

My understanding is that cousin marriage is also common in some traveller communities. That the resulting children are seen as a blessing and spend all their time in hospital. Since they are a blessing they should be discharged so that they can be with their families who then may no longer see them as a blessing.

Needs to be banned also the sake of the unfortunate infants born with these hideous defects.

FFS the commie bastards are rarely slow to ban anything on various spurious grounds.

Here the moral and scientific/medical case is absolutely undeniable.

Ban it with immediate effect. If this business continues the perps must be advised that “free NHS ” services will be withdrawn for life.

These people are costing law-abiding British taxpayers an absolute fortune, they are usually incapable of work and live off taxpayers their whole lives as do the parents who bred them. This has to stop.

Enough.

I haven’t fact checked this but I’ll assume it’s true. That’s a lot of Muslim mayors, and 130 Sharia courts in the England!

https://x.com/HilzFuld/status/1912914814608810458

EDIT: Just fact checked myself. 8 Muslim mayors as of last year;

”In 2011, the United Kingdom saw the rise of a new wave of mayors – Muslim mayors. Born in a country where religious faiths have long been a divisive and contentious issue, the election of the first British Muslim mayors was a momentous occasion. It was a sign of progress and inclusion, the first steps towards a multicultural and diverse society. Since then, the number of Britain’s Muslim mayors has grown, raising the question: How many cities in Great Britain have Muslim mayors? The answer is that currently, there are eight British cities with Muslim mayors: Leicester, London, Manchester, Birmingham, Blackburn, Bradford, Oldham, and Tower Hamlets.”

Yep, some years ago I had a Pakistani colleague who was married to his cousin and they had a son with a serious congenital kidney problem.
There is a reason why both Judaism and Christianity bans the practice.

Since when? In 1837 Queen Victoria, for example, was not banned from marrying her first cousin Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg, or wherever it was.

Yes, and just look at the current lot.

It’s apparently only Harry that is keen to diversify the gene pool. Perhaps because he is already from diverse stock, if you know what I mean….

Dunno. My parents are beautiful and I look like a deformed rugby ball from a certain angle.

Yes, the Government very belatedly recognised the consequence of the generational incestuous Royal marriages throughout Europe.

The late Queen Mother was the first example of a change of policy: Bertie was allowed to marry a non-royal since he was never going to become King 🙂 And then Edward VIII refused to play ball and suddenly we got King George VI and non-Royal Elizabeth.

With Queen Elizabeth II they reverted to cousin marriage, albeit 2nd cousins, once removed ….. and Charles is the consequence. ‘Nuff said.

Yvette Cooper to Decide on Tulip Siddiq Extradition Request

Siddiq could soon be reunited with her cousins in Bangladesh. This should be an interesting case of Kneel’s Two-tier justice.

Looking forward to this.

I live in leafy Sussex and even here you see pakistani parents walking with their disabled kids. It’s a far bigger problem than this research shows.

Until a credible figure is put on the cost to both the NHS and the DWP of birth defects and their consequences due to cousin marriage, this subject will be dismissed as bigotry by the usual voices on the left and in Westminster.

When this study first emerged, a figure of £2bn a year was estimated as the cost to the NHS of birth defects, miscarriages etc. You could reasonably double that today. The long term cost in disability support to the DWP would be an order of many magnitudes higher. That is the figure that’s needed to stop this dreadful practice.

The real problem is that is repeated down the generations. As a one off it is usually fine.

“For the time being, raising scientific literacy may go some way to curbing the practice.”

I doubt it. It will continue to be imposed since it keeps any wealth within the immediate family and facilitates continual immigration from the sub-continent to the UK …… and a subsidised life c/o British taxpayers.
