Few folk including myself been asking about this for ages, glad to see it come into the mainstream now. It's something folk need to come to terms with. Aye that will work...not really it will be a shambles as everybody will class themselves as essential. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will happen before most balanced thinking folk believe it should. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they are worried the cops will be overrun especially down in England if the temperatures ramp up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will happen before most balanced thinking folk believe it should. When is the three week revaluation? I would have though they’ll simply extend it, and that all this talk of loosening restrictions is premature. I realise there are all sorts of talking heads throwing their tuppence worth in, no doubt including David Byrne, but the Government needs to cut that out if there’s no truth to it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realise there are all sorts of talking heads throwing their tuppence worth in, no doubt including David Byrne, but the Government needs to cut that out if there’s no truth to it.3 weeks is up on Monday with the review being postponed, presumably till Boris can be involved. The talk seems to be more aimed at the type of loosening when it comes, I dont think anyone is talking like Monday is the end, but even so, it's just a confirmation that we will hit the point where rates of admission and death intersect with economic consequence. Certainly would bet the house on at least a 2 week extension being announced fairly soon though. But after that period, something will change. There will be at least some things allowed to get going again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

throbber Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 well it was one of the last to shut down coz they were saying we could carry on using safe measures. Will be open first and then a month will pass and if there’s no spike then other industries will follow suit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
