If you can go to work you should, but avoid public transport.

Crazy. How are people meant to get to work then in London?

For Christ's sake. Most employers won't be allowing office workers back willy nilly! It's not a free for all.

My work won't be re-opening any time soon until they have proper consultation on distancing etc.

But eventually, yes, London will have to manage public transport and travel to work. The planning should already be under way.

My understanding was always that if social Distancing could be maintained, then the activity could continue.  It is obvious that was not possible in a lot of the hospitality industry  and a lot of factories that have a high density of workers.

If social distancing can't be attained than it will not be possible to resume activities  - and this was maybe why they  stopped in the first place.

I can't see that much has changed to be honest - but concede that the message has become  less starightforward.

 

 

Not much has changed I'd agree - personally I think it was a waste of time watching it .

Its a bit of a sweeping statement , surely each school has to have the capability to keep social distancing?

If there is only 3years going back then social distancing should be easy to sort

Deeply concerned that people are being asked to go to work tomorrow, but avoid public transport, and before workplace safety measures have been introduced. Too many families tonight will face a sleepless night faced with an impossible choice. We need clarity on this urgently

The message seems to be that construction workers should go back to work, on foot, to make money for people who don't care if they live or die.

Boyle is tw*t. I'd cheerfully hit him round the head with a hard object. So nasty he should be a Tory.

And anyway many constructions workers have been in all along anyway. Probably one of the easier industries to do so given the level of protective equipment required

Have you ever been in a Reception class?

I wonder what a school classroom will look like when they go back? Teachers wearing PPE? Everything wiped down often? The parents trying to SD outside while trying to control the kids. Some won't though. Just had an image of a load of noise where the Mum's are having to shout at each other with the distancing.

UK exempts France from quarantine measures

"No quarantine measures would apply to travellers coming from France at this stage; any measures on either side would be taken in a concerted and reciprocal manner."

Parks okay, assume beaches still aren't then?

Yes agree with that , its clear some years are done until September id say

When it doesn't materialise the armchair critics will seamlessly move on to criticising the Government over unprecedented unemployment exacerbated by extending  the lockdown.

That's hilarious for someone who is one of the worst armchair critics on this Forum.

At least my comments are rooted in the science and reality. You ought to try it sometime.

You can go to the beech I think.

 

Boris will go into more detail tomorrow in the commons.

I assume that walking along the beach if it's local to you would be acceptable.  But that excludes driving to the coast to sunbathe, sit on the beach and eat and drink.

Thats the message I took, already told my oldest she’s not going back until September

Can you tell me how you are going to get a class of 30 three year olds to socially distance? I'd greatly appreciate knowing how because in 25 years working in schools I've never seen it happen.

You could be walking along the beach to the construction site...

That's the problem here.  The message was clear,  now there are lots of assumptions being made - Loads of "if's and but's" and  massive scope for boundary testing.  BJ says the penalties for not complying are to be ramped up,  but the Public and Police need to be crystal clear what the law actually is !

Why does unlimited exercise start on Wednesday? and not tomorrow ?
