COVID-19 — Coronavirus

I thought he spoke very well. Showed leadership - finally

Agree, and I don't think other politicians should be using the situation for gain or as Piers Morgan regularly does to slag off Boris and his colleagues. The government have given the general public every opportunity to self police and be sensible but a small amount have been stupid and selfish.

Only essential work, I thought he said

My take is that if the business is open and you can not undertake your job from home then you are expected to go to work as normal. Once you have finished at work you go home and stay home.

Essential journeys to work? Or journeys to essential work? How are we left asking these sorts of questions?

Journeys to essential work.
Clearly.

Pity the coutry is cut to the bone with police numbers

Shit just got real

Army will be on the streets within days.

Typical. I finally meet a woman I feel close to and now I can’t even see her. :(

Do you need a puncture repair kit mate I’m sure amazon will deliver one.

Nothing will change with these measures. People are still going to work, nobody is counting how many ‘exercises’ you do per day. Just wear some joggers and trainers and you can do what the fuck you want apparently. Use food delivery services? They are booked for weeks on end so people will still congregate en masse at supermarkets. Pretty much no change other than police have the power to disperse crowds and fining them if they don’t.

The passionate plea was nice from Boris though. Hopefully that emotion will resonate with people and make them realise the severity of this situation.

Doubt the police will be turning up to the domestic disputes that flare up in the coming weeks. Bit like the old days.

Can make all the speeches you want but this whole thing has just showed us how many selfish cunts there are in the world. Guarantee there will still be dickheads who go down the whole "you can't tell me what to do" route and still go out.

Good speech but it won’t have much effect on the general public, the streets won’t be empty tomorrow like they should be.
