    Yeah we’re importing a lot more here so there’s more risk in that sense. One benefit of this mess is we get to stress test a lot of systems and supply chains before Brexit kicks in next year. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I’m sure you’re right (although it’s more useful at a higher level with motivated students, see Open Uni and various other providers) but plenty of jobs could have people working from home even if it was only part of the time or staggered. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Will be interesting to see if any of these things stick and make organisations more flexible. Useful way of combating climate change, pollution and reducing congestion on the roads. As somebody else has said we’re witnessing the worlds largest remote working experiment. Sent from my iPhone...
