oh hes not doing anything, just making a statement to show how great he is.

its not up to him

ah, right

so he's still a worthless waste of human space?

yes

Just put Boris back in charge i'd say

though i say that like he isn't already xD

boris did a reasonable job of it. still some notable failures but overall not bad

it was better than under khan

well thats easy, one of the northen line rats could do better

xD

playin lotto tonight... its one of those "must be won" ones

New labour leader looks like Richard Spencer xd

maybe richard spencer if startled and then embalmed

that would be quite a good way to get rid of RS by the way

Have they officially extended the lock down yet?

From my understanding is supposed to end this week? I haven't heard anyone give a brew time scale when they'll re review

seems near certain they will

wales has i think

i think they're only reviewing it at all because they said they would

COBRA meeting tomorrow

I don't think Wales _officially_ gets an independent say/... they side-stepped that one all the way earlier, didn't they? Avoiding awkward politics with the uppety Welsh assembly.

my guess is a further fortnight then another review

Doubt they'll be ending most of the rules any time soon considering we haven't reached the peak yet

I was glad to see my shares have gone up today... I've made back everything twice that I've lost in the past six weeks since this started kicking off, and I'm not even sure why

They need to announce something though

As long as they give people some sense there's thinking behind it and direction

My work are telling me I need to go back in on the 15th

So even if they extend it, if they say they're considering opening up x or y initially it'll help

I suspect they might open up construction and similar, but keep pubs, clubs, and lockdown going

I just want them to say we'll review again on x date so I don't have to go back to work lol

they'll likely do that regardless

Yeah

if brexit taught them anything, it's that industry needs waypoints and markers so they can plan

I guess tomorrow as is bank holidays then until Tuesday

place your bets, i think fortnight - a week is too short and 3 weeks will make too many people miserable

OPEN THE FUCKING GYMS

until the next review, that is

1st may seems a reasonable date

"UK ‘will have worst death rate in Europe’

Analysis by world-leading disease data scientists suggests the UK will have the highest number of deaths in Europe from the coronavirus outbreak, accounting for more than 40% of fatalities across the continent. Experts at the Seattle-based Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) predict that UK daily deaths will peak at 2,932 on 17 April, with the high death toll blamed in part on delays in introducing a lockdown."

shame they didn't think to consider that the rates would be proportional to population density
