Doubt it RR,  the ones who make lengthy posts like to contribute all the time - if he does at least Jack will be returning in the Spring👍

Oh aye, from his Miami home. Not bad for someone who lives in Park Hill flats as a delivery driver....

Is that a 'put down' - doesn't make him a lesser person,  how do you know,  do you live in the same block?

Just reading his posts, nothing sinister. Plus he talks utter guff. I doubt someone on delivery driver wages can afford to live in Miami for 6 months a year during the busiest time for delivery drivers, so obviously he is talking utter rubbish. Dont tell me you believed him?

Doesn't matter to me what he does or where he is,  but you seem snobby if so,  own it.

Not at all, I certainly couldnt afford to swan off to Miami for 6 months either, I just know obvious bull**** when I see it.

Well, let's see who is right, Katie Hopkins or the naysayers on here.

Hopefully, since the pandemic, enough people have woken up to the controls overtaking our lives, to stop it.

But if we're all living in our 'zones' hungergames style or the equivalent, we'll know 'they' have won.

Who is being confined to "zones"?

"Will Oxford residents be confined to their local area? 

No.      

The misinformation online has linked the traffic filters to the 15-minute neighbourhoods proposal in the City Council’s Local Plan 2040, suggesting that the traffic filters will be used to confine people to their local area. This is not true. 

The 15-minute neighbourhoods proposal aims to ensure that every resident has all the essentials (shops, healthcare, parks) within a 15-minute walk from their home. They aim to support and add services, not restrict them.

The City Council aims to ensure that areas of the city, such as Barton, Blackbird Leys and Rose Hill, have all the essential services that places such as East Oxford and Jericho already have.

Residents will still be able to drive to every part of the city at any time, even with the traffic filters in place. But in the future, at the times when the filters are operating, you may need to take a different route (e.g. using the ring road) if you want to travel by car."

 

Conspiracy theorists do their usual 2 + 2  = lots and lots

They also said that misinformation has also resulted in both councils receiving numerous calls and social media messages from worried residents.

It comes after the scheme became the focus of multiple attacks by climate deniers, including Piers Corbyn, who showed up at the county council meeting where the decision was made, and Fox News commentator Steve Milloy.

 

There were also articles published on climate change conspiration websites, including Watts Up With That, which published an essay calling the measures ‘a climate lockdown starting in 2024’ - which then went viral. 

Steve Milloy, who was also a member of Donald Trump's presidential transition team, shared an Oxford Mail article with his Twitter followers, where he called the measures the ‘first climate lockdown’.

He said: “Oxford (UK) to introduce first climate lockdown. City will be divided into six neighborhoods and residents locked down in them - no traffic in or out - on a rotating basis.

“Plan approved on November 30.”

We already know who's right... it's not Katie Hopkins.
