Read the twitter post I put up and the FT article Schmeee put up.

Their delayed reaction has cost lives and they've only just realised their mistakes.
Agree the boarders should of been shut day 1 No1 in or out

Seems to be getting a hell of a lot worse this when this thread was made I laughed...I’m not laughing anymore where is the end ?

who knows, we have some people expressing concern and being asked stupid questions deflecting away & trying to prove that our economy is the single most important thing and the foreigners are all idiots, and the Boris disciples are amusingly saying he’s got it all under control- they are the recurring themes at the moment.

looks like a year yet of this, but then who the hell knows

Yeah I’m sure his link will save lives Are you self isolating?

You say you're down the pub, are you wasted?

You're talking absolute shite, not making any sense.

The government's change of direction will save potentially hundreds of thousands of lives compared to their original plan, you know, the one you thought was so wonderful.

Gosh hard audience. They’ve enacted their plans based on data

Government admit themselves that they took the wrong approach and yet some on here are still defending said approach. It’s like it’s bloody football match and people don’t want to criticise their teams’. Beggars belief.

Exactly. The government have realised they fucked up, yet people are still defending the original plan even though the government themselves known it was wrong. So weird.

Take your Boris blinkers off mate.

They fucked up.

We were the only country in the world adopting this plan. We were going against the advice of the WHO.

They've changed their plans based on data I'll give you that - the data clearly shows they got it wrong so they had to do something different.

It was announced late this afternoon.

We're getting closer to the rest of the world in terms of more restrictions and measures in place. More social distancing and working from home, avoiding mass gatherings etc.

I’m interested to hear your views on the path this now follows G ? Where’s the end ?

We need to protect the many and not the very few who will be impacted and the many need economic security and most of the few would die anyway

Long and short of it, we tried a “scientific” approach, and fucked up. As has been admitted by the govt themselves who’ve now had to change the plans & the rest of the world- aside from a few self proclaimed experts on here.

Grendel you haven't commented on these latest developments, except to dismiss it because it was posted by Schmeee.

The government are backtracking on their original plan as they know they got it wrong. Do you still think they were right? Do you think their new proposals are the right thing to do?
