Happy to do it either way.

You can tell I’m serious as I didn’t ask for a picture of you all squashing your knockers up against a window or anything.

Yet.

Yep. But it’s relative to testing. SK have done more testing than anyone, so adjust for that and they’d be best off here. Others will be lower than real position.

Is it kicking off in hospitals now then? 

Seen the death rates rising but nothing from local hospitals 

Keep up the good work, were all behind you! 

Community nurses 👍 thank fuck I don't work on a ward, I'd feel trapped! 

Putin enjoying himself?

Russia has deployed a misinformation campaign against Western countries to worsen the impact of coronavirus and whip up panic, according to an EU document seen by Reuters

I work at Argos on fast track delivery, the amount of desks, chairs, printers, monitors, tv's, ink and trampolines (?) Going out the doors for delivery is phenomenal.

So, tenants wont be expected to pay their rents for 3 months, i think i heard?

After that?

And are they going to give thought to landlords tomorrow?

12 weeks is the general view forward, which seems reasonable?

I dont have a mortgage

Im in the fortunate position that i dont need the rent money urgently

But, for me its another example of a lack of joined up thinking

Mortgages yesterday

Rents today

Landlords tomorrow

I dont believe theres much thought of the impact of all theyre doing

At tea time, key workers kids can go to school

At that time, they couldnt say who key workers were

If you rent and then don’t have work, won’t you just get housing benefit? Worked that way for me when I got made redundant back in 2008

Obviously you don’t get housing benefit if you pay a mortgage, thus the holiday

I think the situation means that we will see plenty of stuff that’s being pulled together on the fly, I don’t think we have time for joined up thinking

But itd be nice to know the plan

How does that work? Where do these key workers kids go if the schools are closed? 
 

Am I missing something?

See, they need to make time

Every announcement seems to create more questions than they answer

Apparently, some schools will remain open

With teachers as glorified child minders
