Telling people they can go out more go to the beach and have a game of golf on the way home is fucking stupid.Surely we should stay as it is now get some kids back to school when possible, then maybe parents will be able to work.

It seems a bit back to front in what has been said in tonight's statement.I understand the country needs to get back to work the economy etc. But as difficult as it is making these decisions, i fear the government has fucked up.

At least I don’t pretended otherwise like he just tried to. I am a staunch conservative and proud of it. Doing their absolute best. Managed the peak offered unprecedented financial support and trying to get the economy going again so more don’t die of non covid issues than the disease itself. It’s easy to throw stones from the outside.

I don’t care how many times I say it - can you imagine McDonnell, Abbott and corbyn?
 
Dont understand the confusion around going to work. The government never told you you "cant work". The only reason you've been sat at home the last 2 months is because your business was told not to open, therefore you had no work to go to.

If your company contacts you to say they are reopening, then go back to work, if they don't, stay off. Simple.

equally there’s people that NEED to go back to work - for some industry’s like construction that is possible if they really stick to social distancing and he made that clear tonight - whatever steps are taken it will be stressful for a lot of people. There’s simply no winning for the Government at this stage of the virus - and yes, part of that reason is because of the Goverments slow response to the crises - but right now, I believe they are really trying to get the balance right in protecting people’s healths and the economy - and it’s clear it’s a monumental task

So you don't have questions at all ? It was that clear ?

Well firstly I haven't criticised anything Johnson said tonight, I've just criticised you for calling people pathetic for daring to criticise your beloved Boris. So I'm not sure why you think I need to give any fuxking answers to anything? But if you're going to push me then I guess a little bit more clarity from him might have been nice so that there aren't so many people confused about what is going on from tomorrow morning. Or he could have left things as they were for a few days until he could provide the detail/clarity that people/firms feel they need. You may feel that he has provided all the clarity needed but clearly many people don't feel that they have the clarity they need and they are voicing those concerns. That doesn't make them pathetic. Anyhow, I stand by my post, you are pathetic if you think people shouldn't complain about their government if those people believe that government is not meeting their expectations. Furthermore if you really believe people shouldn't criticise a government on the basis that they don't have the answers to running the country themselves then you should be embarrassed because that is an utterly puerile point of view.

lots of rocks and criticism but no answers of your own. A bit more clarity and we’ll be fine.

he could be clearer but far too many criticise without any answers. you can’t just say that’s shit without offering an alternative. Even those criticising aren’t really saying how it can be done sensibly balancing deaths without fucking future generations.

sturgeon has criticised all day about a slogan!!

boris is though over trading out of intensive care and new baby .

The public transport maybe a huge problem for a lot of workers getting to work, who would get on a busy tube nowadays.

That's really sad, I'm a staunch city supporter but I can still call them out when they have played a shit game.
