Come on Ernie, you're not daft. He's making a complete mess of this.
We're getting there slowly but surely.
This message is all wrong and I think it will set us back.
I hope I'm wrong because today's deaths looked like a massive step in the right direction and we're in danger of going backwards.

I just don't get why he didn't say ok, more of the same for a bit, here's the plan for better times if you stick to it.

I’m just going to wear my cricket pads and carry a tennis racket everywhere I go whilst being sure to stay alert.

Good speech, fair play for not loosening a lot of the restrictions till June at the earliest, another 3 weeks and I think numbers will be much lower!!! Hopeful in July for lots of things to reopen then!

Are you serious? That was a terrible statement. Vague as fuck, as for the "if you can't work from home, return tomorrow" just sounds to me like "management class can stay safe but fuck the grunts"

Anyone from England driving into Wales for a jolly day out has a pretty high risk of being stopped and turned around. After this statement , the police in Wales will be even more on the look out for cars registered in England, and they've turned around a fair few.
The advice says one thing to England and another to the rest.

Yeah but if you don't cross into the devolved regions you can do what you want

Sunbathing is allowed from Wednesday. It’s cold and cloudy Wednesday, but Bozza said, so I’m doing it.

The quicker and stricter you lockdown, the quicker you can go back to normal life.

That seems to be beyond the comprehension levels of this government though.

They are fully reopening secondary schools on the 18th, and most hospitality from 1st June. Not had even 10 deaths on a given day and just 3,000 cases overall.

We have one of the largest economies in the world and the benefit of being an island but are worse than anywhere on the continent despite what Grendel or his mate at the Mail claim

It definitely said plus on the slide.

It can't be the actual formula that they're using, otherwise the R in the formula is completely redundant.

It's the small changes. What counts as not being able to work from home? Currently we've shut our public facing side but, if we're encouraged to go back, does that mean we should?

Didn't he say you should, if you can't work from home you should go to work, that's how i heard it anyway.

The alert scale; 5 is the worst so we're at 4 (we wouldn't want to be realistic about where we really are). There isn't any method to speak of behind the scales anyway by the sounds of it...

So just to put this into perspective. We’re more in the shit than Italy and Spain having never locked down as toughly as them and we’re now going to relax our lockdown further still. What could possibly go wrong.

The only reason we aren't at 5 is they have made 5 so bad it's when there are so many deaths the nhs collapses

It's like a nightmare episode of the apprentice where the task is to manage the country through a pandemic and a load of entitled twats with an over inflated belief in their own ability make an absolute hash of it while patting themselves on the back.

We've a week's holiday booked on Crete in July. All the places there may well be open and running by then but we might not go because the Greeks probably won't let anyone in from the UK

It’s easy to say we’re around “covid level 3/4”. Still plenty of time and possibility to get worse.

Should've kept the 'stay at home' instead of 'stay alert'. I still don't know what that means.

Also its great that people are encouraged to go back to work and go outdoors more as long as social distancing measures are in place. What about those wanting to see friends, families and partners not in the same household? Without stating the obvious (particularly where partners are concerned!) does that mean that this can only happen outdoors and 2m apart?
