In our cities we would likely already have reached this level. Aye they said London might actually be 15%. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon it's because the tories privately brief something, and if it's popular with the public they go with it, otherwise it gets pulled / changed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your work is open you either need a doctor's line or they can discipline you if inclined. Everyone in construction is a contractor so they can make their own choice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Detournement Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 Blue tick Twitter going nuts about unsafe working conditions ignoring the fact that millions of people have been working right through this with no issues. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey Tennis Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 It's a petty point, but something in particular annoyed me in Johnson's address. He made big play of being UK Prime Minister at the start then later referred to school half term at the start of June. Now for most of his audience, that will indeed be a marker, but it's the fact he, his advisors and writers see no need to qualify such remarks, that is insulting. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1nickydevlin Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 So if people in construction in England can go back too work but can't in Scotland does that mean we can still get paid through the furlough scheme ?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Fifer Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 It seems a bit mental to advise construction and manufacturing to get back to work, with a days notice, without any guidelines really on what needs to change in their work environments. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 2 minutes ago, oaksoft said: Do you really need to be breastfed through everything in life? Johnson, to the best of my understanding did not make his announcement in Hebrew or Latin. Use a bit of commonsense and take a bit of personal responsibility when following these instructions. You accuse Johnson of avoiding responsibility but you seem to struggle to accept any personal responsibility at all. Life is risk. Accept that and deal with the consequences. And FFS, stop bloody moaning about everything. Fucking hell. Changing the message from Stay Home to Stay Alert is significant, most people won't have watched it or taken in the caveats. It'll be taken as "We'll be all right doing whatever we want if we're a bit careful. Nice one." It was a stupid thing to do if that's not what he meant, and without coordinating it with the other countries. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forest_Fifer Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 Johnson just said you could sit in the sun. That doesn't strike me as wildly different from sunbathing.He also said that you could drive places for your exercise. [emoji1751] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
