It would cost about £1k a month to rent a modest apartment in leamington - try telling those evicted it’s not as bad as not paying a mortgage

To be fair G the peasants on less than £2.5k a month can still receive 80% of their income

The first few on there are around £900 to £1k a month for a 2 bedroom flat?

Fucking hell, I can't wait for the football to be back. If we don't fill the stadium when we are finally allowed back in (whatever stadium that may be) I'll be livid with our fans.

Was going to say the same! 91 one beds on there, only 5 £1K plus, even two bed of the 149 listed only 81 are £1K plus.

We get it, JLR pay everyone way over average and you're all taking early retirement and living in mansions while the rest of us make do with scraps.

It’s nothing to do with JLR it’s someone I know who earns under £30,000 a year and pays £850 a month plus utilities - it really isn’t that out of bed with an average

Though, you have to remember, once this crisis is all over, many people are going to have very little money.

It will be a massive factor and for that very reason, there will be zero chance of the stadium being full.

Can see it being the same problem up and down the country.

No one get excited by the ons saying there were more death certificates mentioning covid-19 than official deaths as coroners etc have been putting coronavirus as causes of death if the dead person had a cough even if they were never tested. An example of this is the 21 year old from last week who died of a non coronavirus heart attack

They pay management over the odds not us gash hands on the shop floor. Makes me laugh at times as I remember when I started there in the early 90s it was viewed as a shit dead end job that nobody wanted to do,that's why the wages were good. Now I get told I'm lucky blah blah. Funny how things change.

I must say theres less and less people at the memorial park now when I go for a run. When this partial lockdown first started there was still loads in groups wandering around. Hopefully the message is getting through to even dumbest arseholes out there.

It seems similar to Italy, let’s hope it’s not the norm.

Because it’s a lethal pandemic and everyone seems to be recording figures differently and the only thing anyone knows is that this will go on for months? stop getting sucked in by every fake announcement that we’re all going to be ok in a couple of weeks
