Whatever decision is taken will be met with anger or dispair.

People need to sit down for a bit of introspection as to what is actually important.

Liberty vs life for instance.

It's okay no matter what you do you can always blame the government.

People criticise the gov just giving advice on behaviour at the moment, wait for the outcry when they force pubs etc to close.

Think about the poor sods in essential roles, pressure on those workers to keep things going their fears need addressing and supporting.



Agree

The number of snivelling teachers ringing into phone in shows complaining that they can’t cope because a few of the colleagues are off and complaining that the government should have closed the schools long ago is doing my nut

Now they are ringing in complaining they have to go back to work to look after children from key workers and it’s a shambles

No sense of duty and I think a lot of these teachers, ( the ones I’ve heard on the radio recently anyway ) have had it too easy and don’t know what hardship is

They seem quick to absolve themselves of any responsibility looking after children

I can’t imagine any one of my school masters when I was at school complaining, they would have fought in the trenches and come into school with amputated limbs if needed

But then some of them had fought in the war and had been through tough times

Rant about ‘soft whingeing’ teachers over



+1, and they won't have their salaries cut

In our shared office block is a call centre, only seen a couple of managers around recently, so just asked one - apparently because of GDPR staff can't work from home so half made redundant & the rest on basic stat sick pay

I've a feeling that if construction sites are forced to close, we'll see some major main contractors going pop with zero cashfow
