But you were supposed to be self isolating which means not leaving your house.

Are you on a fucking wind up Sippo?

Be honest, because if you are then it's wearing very thin.

No wind up here. Not intentionally winding people up.

I’m now living in the 3rd worst affected country on the planet. I know what’s coming to you lot in a weeks time. This time last week we had the same amount as the UK does now and we were already on lockdown. I hate to say it but you’re fucked.
Good luck and stay safe

No it doesn't, although you're right about not going out to buy food. The advice is that you should not leave your house except
1) In medical emergency
2) Exercise, but not in crowded areas and not in groups and maintain the recommended 2 meters distance

https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/self-isolation-advice/

TBF to wooly, the advice has changed in the last few days. Last time I looked you were OK to go out to get food and medicine. Now the advice is to get it delivered or dropped off by a friend.

This is half the problem, the advice changes so frequently that what you think you "know" is wrong a few days later.

Oh and btw, you are still (and will remain) completely and utterly wrong about being OK to pop down the pub for a pint. On a scale of 1 to "What the actual fuck do you think you are playing at?" wooly going out to get food is probably around a 1 or a 2, going to the pub is at least an 8.

Pubs are still putting on gigs this weekend in the town too.
Seriously? I get that pubs can't close without a govt order, it's financial suicide and I have every sympathy with them. But actively encouraging crowds? That's beyond irresponsible.

The govt need to just shut the fucking pubs, the restaurants, the theatres for Christ's sake, and pay the salaries of the staff. Then the owners of these businesses can stop having to choose between their responsibility to their staff and their responsibility to public health, which isn't a choice they should have to be making and Sippo might finally get the message and just get some tinnies in and drink them in his own garden. Or his kitchen. Wherever.

Not a huge model but potentially encouraging signs. We have to look at glimmers of light, which might be a lot harder for some.

But news like this can give us hope that we all can go to the pub again without fear, in time.

Edit: Pages 19 onwards for charts and tables if you don't want to read all the guff. Page 24 is of note, going forward.

I went out for a delightful fish supper in The Royal Oak, Old Town, Swindon yesterday evening. Our party consisted of people in their 30s, 50s, 60s & 70s. The venue was busy as were the two pubs afterwards. A band had cancelled but that was the only disappointment. I am going into work as usual at 9am today. I am going away this evening for a weekend break. I know of no-one who is ill due to this outbreak. How are all of you doing in your day to day lives away from trying to be strategists in unprecedented times?

The gentle trolling has all the hallmarks of a Reg post. I assume that this is one of his other accounts.

Obviously the Brexit negotiations have been put on the back burner until the current issues have been resolved.

As there is little doubt that a shrinking of the economy is imminent, are we facing more problems immediately after?

The key worker list is out then. Doesn't go far enough as in my opinion they should also be the only workers allowed to go to work and leave their homes unless completely necessary. The government are being reactive rather than proactive. Not good enough
