If the elderly and vulnerable are going to be isolated they will need deliveries so hopefully some form of distribution will be offered for them.

Brilliant. You're moving the goal posts now as if people were defending needless panic buying. The conversation is about what the government can ask you to do. They can ask you don't go to the pub, they can't ask you don't buy food.

Yup, nobody is saying they do. They're saying people need to buy food so you can't ban that. It's not the same as saying go feral and panic buy.

That explains the laptops too.

Can you wipe your arse with a laptop??

It's an odd way to pass the time, isn't it?

Well you're right, I'm thinking about my personal experience and viewpoint and all of us on here have been fortunate to hear the stories from various people all over Europe. Maybe a lot of people aren't prepared for what it will be like but I think, generally on here at least, we have got a good...

SO you're saying I shouldn't breathe as that's how the infection can spread? What's the point of me wearing a seat belt when driving then if I could have a heart attack huh!? What if somebodies Nan's dog needs walking and the neighbours kids offers to do so but then a stranger pats the dog on...

You know what the answer is here. It's much easier for the government to tell everyone not to do certain things than try and cater for individual circumstances. All about lowering the risk, but as I said, you know that.

It's not that its fine people a queuing with others it's just the reality with the situation. Fair enough while it's only a recommendation people are going to keep going to the pub. Just as while it's recommended not to panic buy people will. The governments view is while they only recommend...

Astute, you are right that lockdown will be tough but I don't think people are underestimating it or wanting it, it's just that it might be a price we have to pay to slow this thing down long enough to catch out breath.

Nick, you are merging two different issues here, the need to shop to eat with panic buying.

I don't know what is most amazing, how those people couldn't see what was happening or that they have the audacity to chose a new hill to die on each passing day and continue to be wrong while maintaining a tone of condescension.

Firstly, it's not about it being safer, it's about what is most necessary and restricting the less necessary things to limit the rate of infection.. Secondly, you are comparing a worse case supermarket situation with a best case pub situation to suit your argument.. I've seen plenty of...

The papers will tell us we need to tighten the purse strings after all this spending, make it analogous to a household budget, and we’ll sign up for another 10 years. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m guessing that’s best case scenario on relaxing some of the social distancing measures? Who knows. Maybe we just need to believe in ourselves more? “Let’s get Coronavirus gone” that should do it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah this really isn’t the gig Johnson signed up for. If it wasn’t an on-going disaster it would be funny to watch. Last nights press conference was a joke. At least up until then he’d been trying. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

He’s trying to take both sides here. Those in favour of Boris and those in favour of Boris. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
