Painful viewing and staggering that anybody thought this man was fit to be our Prime Minister.Quote:

Baw jaws actually being held to account by a journalist, asking 'what do you actually mean when you say turn the tide in 12 weeks?' He responds by backtracking, that's what I'd like to happen, he says.
What's the point in closing the schools but leaving pubs & restaurants open?
So that the insurance industry that helped fund his re-election don't lose out and the small businessman suffers instead.Quote:

We’re in a (cough cough) “alternative” district where supermarket shopping is pretty rare.Quote:

Will school teachers get full pay when Schools are closed?
Johnson. Worst press conference so far. Just awful. The main message that will be heard is “end June...off you go to Costa del Sol”. If had an almost light hearted tone in parts.
This time next week he’ll be standing there talking about hundreds of deaths each day. Noticeable that the two medical experts beside him chose not to comment on his 12 weeks nonsense.
Yes, they are salaried staff.Quote:

That's what some higher upper in the insurance world said anyway. There was a BBC article about it on the back of all the comments about how BJ was skirting around banning people going to pub to help insurers out.Quote:

It was dreadful on the economy as well. It appears he doesn’t understand the level of shut down that’s happening. He needs to get money into companies to meet their payroll or he is going to have higher unemployment than we have ever had before.Quote:

No mention of over 70’s and people with underlying illnesses to meet distancing measures? As someone who works on the frontline with an underlying condition I’m actually ****ting myself that I catch it. Until it’s official I still have to attend. Sounds selfish af but I’m genuinely worried about this.
That might be the case, but by keeping premises open the government 100% guarantees zero insurance payouts, no matter what cover you have, which is the point. It's a deliberate policy.Quote:

That is worrying. You don’t sound selfish at all. Look after yourself. Your health should always come first. If you haven’t done so already maybe you should speak with your GP about your concerns.Quote:

Businesses are struggling big time. If they weren't allowed to trade at all more of them would go bust.Quote:
