Yes exactly, too many people have struggled with the 'Stay at home' message so I think dropping that just gives a green light to these idiots to go back to normal, like all those ridiculous street parties.

You give people an inch and they will take a mile.

Very true. I think the other problem we’ve had is the government knowing that any restrictions of the level of continental Europe would have been unenforceable given the feeble resources available so have always had to go with a softer response

That is the intention, this second wave is going to be a disaster.

Dropping the stay at home will be the green light for people to take the piss.

It might be ok.while we're having a bit of colder weather but when it gets warm again I think it will be a free for all.

We seem to slowly be making progress I just think we need to hammer home to keep to the current guidelines and I think we'll see some really encouraging numbers in 2 or 3 weeks time.

The opposition seem keener to get people back and out than Johnson. Ashworth saying we need a get back to work and schools strategy and lockdown is not a strategy

I was fully expecting to stay at home until middle of June. To be fair, and I appreciate my good fortune for being able to, I will anyway. Want to see those numbers dropping and I don’t trust the public around me

Ye-es. I shall be lobbying my workplace to exercise caution!

It'll also take the piss if I've cancelled my wedding only to be told I could have done a version of it anyway.

Tbf I have no idea what to expect as the leaks have been ridiculously muddled this week!

I’m happy for the government to take a bashing too but sometimes look at this country and think it’s unmanageable. I was walking with my daughter in the park last week obsessively following the guidelines as usual. There were a couple of coppers walking around reminding people sitting on benches that A this wasn’t really the deal and B if everyone was doing this then it’s going to be a good way for germs to spread. Out of 5 people they spoke to only 1 lot moved immediately 2 others argued the toss for 5 mins and the the other 2 point blanked refused.

everyone is whining today that the new government slogan doesn’t give clear orders. Is that so people no exactly which ones they should disobey

As I said weeks ago the government and media have spent three years training people to think they know best and experts are liberal metropolitan idiots with no common sense and this would backfire drastically.

They've taken out 'stay at home' and replaced the red with green in the material. I agree that the vast majority have been very good with the instructions until now but there are so many who have been waiting for any softening who are going to take that as LOCKDOWN OVER JUST WEAR GLOVES OR SOMETHING

As long as social distancing remains in place then schools will essentially remain locked down.

The death con with Coronavirus is the same as other viruses so will be the same everywhere - it’s why flu deaths have massive ranges depending on what you read

Also lockdowns are going to always have issues as Italy are acknowledging - they are saying that many are flaunting the rules and now the Russian military is going to enforce it

Germany has not had a full lockdown but a very small amount of deaths

How fucking patronising? “The poor plebs are so scared because our communication skills are too good, and now they’re so lazy they enjoy not working.”

That's basically - "we'd like you to stay locked down but really it's up to you. Sod it, go out and do what you like, if there's a second wave we'll just blame you".
