    Said it would happen. We are still running a week behind France. Next will come lockdown. This weekend if the same timescale is kept to.

    I was already concerned. A big reason why I don't want lockdown. You have the personal reasons then you have the bigger picture. But millions are not listening to what they need to do so it will have to happen. Yet some still go on about we should have locked down before many got the virus...

    And still you only see what you want to see. Look.at people like Ferret. No income if no work. Or SSP for millions if they don't have a decent employer. Live in a bedsit? Them 4 walls are your life. No garden? No fresh air. Elderly single people not allowed visitors. I could go on. But it...

    That is shit. The company I work for has told us we have to self isolate if we have anything at all like a sore throat. The same if we have come into contact with anyone who has had symptoms. One person has been told to stay off because their father went around their house while they were on...

    Or being realistic. Things need to be put into place to keep people apart. One of the safest places seems to be in a pub because most are empty. The most dangerous place in the UK is in shops. How about the workers? You don't seem to think it is a problem. But it is.

    As I said earlier they have gone from €39 to €135 for the first offence. Then well over €300 for the second offence. Some people are cracking already. Not been a week yet. All some want to do is visit family.

    Those who say we should have done it before people got the virus certainly are. It could take 18 months to have a vaccine. Many think they know how bad lockdown is. But the reality is a different matter. Welcome to your 4 walls. It is all you will see for the vast majority of the time. One...

    Not been in a supermarket that isn't busy for days. Even M&S was busy. Which one do you go to?

    The problem many have is they haven't thought out how bad lockdown is. And some say it should have happened before people got the virus. No visiting family. Especially not the vulnerable ones. Not even able to take your dog for a walk. Not even being able to go for a walk where nobody else will...

    This is the problem many are ignoring. Millions need to work to survive. And until something is put in place to help they will still have to work to survive. I have no choice. I have self quarantined myself so I can continue working. I need to continue so those bulk buying bog rolls have...

    Correct. It is impossible to keep your distance when shopping at the moment. And you come into contact with an untold amount of people each time you enter. And how many knowingly have the virus but go shopping because they need to eat or wipe their arse and haven't been able to get what they want.

    France has been shut since last weekend. The borders are open but only if you have a very good reason. That is what I have been saying. You need to fill out a form before travelling anywhere. Not many places are allowed to open. You are only allowed to go to one of the places that are allowed...

    The bloke is an absolute prick. I don't know anyone who would disagree. But as I jeep saying life needs to go on as long as possible. People need to work to make a living. Yet some try to say we should have locked down before the virus took hold. Yet they won't say how long it should happen...

    Do you think Boris is making all the calls? If the way it is handled is proven to be correct it won't be Boris that made the plans. He will just have listened to the experts giving advice.

    It is using a bad situation like we are now in to have a go at someone. Have seen the buildup on here. The same ones that attacked Boris before are using it as an excuse again. Yes he isn't the person to lead the UK. But it is the experts that have been guiding him. Yet some in here kniw much...

    We don't test the vast majority so will never know how bad it is.

    No chance. Packed it in about 20 years ago when you suddenly had to take abuse and do nothing. Suddenly the idiots had the upper hand. And CCTV didn't help either.
