Coronavirus

[Lario]

Was out walking the dog, and half watching on Sky. 

 

Did he say, from Wednesday, you can go play sports (with members of your own family), have unlimited access to exercise, and can travel for said exercise?

And he's putting the responsibility on the public to maintain social distancing?

 

Can't wait to read the headlines about "death spike Wednesday" in a couple of weeks.

I’m finding myself becoming livid at the results of an announcement that hasn’t been delivered yet.

 

In part this is due to the drip feed of teasers I keep gouging my eyes with on the World Wide Web.

 

Mainly it’s because I know I will be livid after the announcement due to the incompetence, cuntery, wankness, disingenuous nature, fuckwitery and general uselessness of the person delivering it so I might as well just make a start on being livid now.

I’m livid.

If the country grew some balls and the penny dropped that the PM has just publicly said that it's okay to sacrifice yourself at the altar of the economy but you're not allowed to take the same risks to see your family and friends, we'd be days away from a national strike. 

 

It's fucking ludicrous.

What we got was a bumbling idiot that sounded like he didn't know what the fuck he was talking about.

What you see is what you get.

If people live miles away from their place of work, don't drive and it's arduous for them to have to walk an hour or two to work (and then back) then what happens there? 

 

I don't fancy the employees chances of convincing their employee that they can't get to work easily, on foot. Their employee is simply going to tell them to find a way to get in, or lose their job. Which will mean there'll be loads of people getting on trains from tomorrow. 

I reckon we're going to see more people on electric bikes and scooters.

Yup, effectively.

 

The poorest have just been ask to risk their health for the sake of profit.

 

A very new, but inevitable, low.

Nothing new about that mate.

And when the inevitable 2nd spike occurs the government will blame the public.

One day Paul Hardcastle will release a single called Covid-Nineteen.

Careful now, it sounds like you're suggesting that lockdown is causing health problems rather than solving them...

The strain put on economies is in large part due to the actual pandemic not the lockdowns.

I think he said household, but its being reported as family.

[polymerpunkah]

The return to work recommendation, is that for everyone?

 

Or has there been some attempt to bring it in in stages, according to the work that's most necessary and/or those workplaces that can most easily be adjusted to allow social distancing, etc.

What we got was a bumbling idiot that sounded like he some of his party and supporters think one thing and some of his party and supporters think the opposite so he's deliberately being vague and unclear so that he can deny going against either side and insist he's made the right choice.

Fixed.
