It was mine as well - and for the record, I think the government should do more and should step in to support businesses.Call me cynical but that was my first thought too.
That said, It is perhaps worth bearing in mind that the government does not actually have any money. It either has to take more money off other people. or borrow more money and as a result, subsequently take more money off other people. There is no money tree.
All our team were in today ;-) And our Permanent Secretary reminded us today that we deal with 20 million people as a whole. We are comparatively lucky in that we will get full pay if absent, and we know that. Can't bear to think how busy we will get soon with businesses closing.Non of them will be in tomorrow then:-)
As staff we are in a better position than most, but the "non essential" contact guidance needs actual directives if we are to remain in post.
you don’t until you are admitted to hospital gasping for breath
Which makes no sense because then you're isolating people that could be helping, its beneficial to know who has got it or who has had it.

All talk, they are total irresponsible shithouses.Don't go to pubs, cinemas or restaurants but they are not closing them. They didn't even ban mass gatherings, what a load of bollocks.
