who knows, we have some people expressing concern and being asked stupid questions deflecting away & trying to prove that our economy is the single most important thing and the foreigners are all idiots, and the Boris disciples are amusingly saying he’s got it all under control- they are the recurring themes at the moment.

looks like a year yet of this, but then who the hell knows

You say you're down the pub, are you wasted?

You're talking absolute shite, not making any sense.

The government's change of direction will save potentially hundreds of thousands of lives compared to their original plan, you know, the one you thought was so wonderful.

Government admit themselves that they took the wrong approach and yet some on here are still defending said approach. It’s like it’s bloody football match and people don’t want to criticise their teams’. Beggars belief.

They can fuck their demands, and that should be made very clear to them. Same as Branson and his demands for £7.5bn for a bailout for Virgin Atlantic.

Exactly. The government have realised they fucked up, yet people are still defending the original plan even though the government themselves known it was wrong. So weird.

Take your Boris blinkers off mate.

They fucked up.

We were the only country in the world adopting this plan. We were going against the advice of the WHO.

They've changed their plans based on data I'll give you that - the data clearly shows they got it wrong so they had to do something different.

*based on money

This shit ratchets up wherever it goes...yet some arseholes (with bad haircuts) refuse to do anything radical to protect their citizens and pledge billions (that they happily wank on military muscle) to their economies.

It was announced late this afternoon.

We're getting closer to the rest of the world in terms of more restrictions and measures in place. More social distancing and working from home, avoiding mass gatherings etc.

We need to protect the many and not the very few who will be impacted and the many need economic security and most of the few would die anyway

Telling people to avoid pubs and restaurants without actually closing them is a cowardly act of selfishness designed to protect the insurance companies and ruin the lives of many working in the service and hospitality industry. It’s shameful.

Long and short of it, we tried a “scientific” approach, and fucked up. As has been admitted by the govt themselves who’ve now had to change the plans & the rest of the world- aside from a few self proclaimed experts on here.

Grendel you haven't commented on these latest developments, except to dismiss it because it was posted by Schmeee.

The government are backtracking on their original plan as they know they got it wrong. Do you still think they were right? Do you think their new proposals are the right thing to do?
