WILF 46,719 Posted March 17, 2020 Report Share Posted March 17, 2020 The thing that baffled me about Boris press conference yesterday is that they advised against all non essential contact but didn’t close the schools and didn’t say how they would help people who want or have to follow the advice ? Some very simple measures could easily put folks mind at rest and make it a simple choice to follow the advice that the government are giving out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But it’s not that easy to be sensible when the council tax, mortgage, tax, vat, water rates man is snapping at your heals mate......and also £94 a week won’t cut it for most people, especially if they have to wait 5 weeks to get it. This is then it I have failed to understand all along, why don’t they just call the dogs off for a while and let people weather the storm ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
