Hourly paid can as there is no wage differential - I can’t see how any staff salaries employee can

Its a mess. Here you've got the council saying they aren't closing car parks unless the park itself is overcrowded with people not observing social distancing. Why keep the car parks open if nobody is supposed to drive there?
They're going to end up creating more problems than they solve. Like this crap about people not buying Easter eggs, what's the issue? If someone is already there to do their shopping who cares. They'll just end up pissing people off and getting ignored, or worse. If they're going to restrict what you can and can't buy there needs to be a list published by the government so everyone knows where they stand. Can't have the police making it up as they go.
Also find it a bit odd that for years now we've been told the police are understaffed and can't investigate car crime, burglaries etc. Now all of a sudden, in the midst of a crisis, they've got time to check peoples shopping.
It specifically says salaried as well.

There was another force tweet pictures of people queuing outside a Tesco imp,lying that they were not making essential purchases. They were at a massive supermarket how do they know what people are buying

There will be salaried staff such as MP&L on site affected plus any Whitley/Gaydon engineering staff who can’t work from home.
Finance, HR, Marketing, Sales and IT e.t.c still being paid as they’re able to work from home and their work still required.
Going to need to sell those new defenders when this is all over.
The way the company seems to have it's priorities I'm sure these people will still be getting paid after all the engineering and production staff are gone and there's no product for them to sell.

Complete nonsense and unenforceable, they'd get laughed out of court.
Didn't Gove say something about limiting exercise to one hour?

It was a suggestion, it's not in the actual bill

Nice as can be to see but fully expect it to go up again
Sure, but you can see where the confusion comes from. Just scanning over the contents of the bill I can't see anything about public movement, is there anything in there?

Could keep dropping or remain stable mate we will know more 10-14 days

Unlikely though but let's hope so
Think that’s just England (another 21 for NI, Scotland and Wales I think)...might be wrong though,
Still positive that it’s not shot up exponentially. Fingers crossed we can keep it that way

I have had a lot of messages from friends across the continent seemingly being made aware that we are making a bit of a hash of it.
I think some of the instructions are right, but some of this micro policing seems a bit silly.
Making a statement about a bloke who went to pick something up he brought on Ebay. I dunno, he shouldn't have done it probably, but certain bodies and members of the public are acting as if he ran into a school and started shooting people.

That'll be the problem. They're OK as long as people just pay the £30 fine but if people start challenging the courts are going to potentially have hundreds or thousands of these cases to deal with on top of their backlog.

If it is 180 it has still dropped which is good

TBF I imagine there’s quite the drop in crime when you close all public places and tell everyone to stay indoors.

At the minute yes but when the recession comes crime will be higher than ever before

Just hypothesising here, but could be that quite a few people started taking things into their own hands a week or so before the government as it became clear the issues in Italy were serious. That would mean you’d see some impact around now.
That said we’ve seen two or three day stalls before then it getting back on trend.

I'm feeling a sudden momentum growing in the media calling for the season to be cancelled - from Harry Kane & Rio Ferdinand over the last couple of days saying that they think the season should be scrapped to UEFA hinting at the same. I now understand that Scottish Football are taking legal advice ahead of possibly voiding the current season.
This is very worrying and unfortunate for teams like us - I don't understand why they cant simply restart & conclude the current campaign as soon as we get the all-clear to resume, regardless when that will be - I just don't get it!

50k is a huge salary for anyone who hasn't lost track of reality.
Can't afford to save on 50k or more a year? Living beyond your means. Too much debt when you shouldn't need debt. If you can afford to save you should be able to live well on 2.5k a month.
No need to do a Billy Big Bollocks especially at a time like this.

They will have to try and finish unless it is really impossible to. The SFA would have their arses handed to them court by Celtic
