    My thoughts are that driven by the desire to stop haemorrhaging money, they must manoeuvre eventually into a position where everyone can technically work within whatever is the current guidance = no more "compensation".

    And a few cost free bones for those you don't work are inevitable under the same new guidelines
    and no doubt would save police overtime costs.

    I think this time everything will revolve around "wearing a mask makes a, b and c ok" i.e. a change mainly for convenience sake.

    Follow the money.

    What do you think? :)

  2. I suspect they’ll bottle out. In which case, the country’s f—-ed for the next decade.

    Read a survey the other day that said 17% of people don’t want to go back to work :rolleyes:

    I think you are going to be shocked, I don't think there's going to be much change, maybe being allowed to visit relatives, more outdoor exercise, golf tennis and garden centres opening and please god.........FISHING

    I’m going to wait and see because I’m sick to death of all the misinformation and speculation, when the outcome is pretty obvious.

    The only reason they’re not yet advising everyone to wear masks is because they can’t get them.
    The government have ordered a load of machines which are enroute to the UK. They may have asked a certain machine manufacturer to reverse engineer them and build a load more... (allegedly)

  8. I'm in no rush to go back to work especially as I'm still waiting to hear from my public liability providers re cover for people trying to sue me for giving them the virus .At some point shops will open where its possible to maintain a safe distance .Sports and anything with big crowds will be a long time to come back ,

    Now's a good time to bargin the price of a cruise holiday

  11. It doesn’t help that we’re bombarded endlessly with contradictory facts.

    I’ve stopped listening.

    I left it so there was only one day. ;)
    Personally I'm carrying on until a long time after restrictions are relaxed to see what happens whatever is announced which I suspect will be more concerning this app thing.

  17. The app thing will die a death when people realise they’ll have to leave Bluetooth turned on, which will kill their battery life...

    I'd sooner have a dead battery than a dead relative:thumbsup:

    They've hacked into the phone codes to switch it on if it detects another one's Bluetooth. And to do that they have to keep switching it on and off. They are showing great determination to centralise and own the software (and data) which by all account is being developed by a bunch of crooks who'd sell your data for tuppence. Probably less than that TBH, a fraction of a penny. It's madness.
