2 of my immediate family work within the NHS and I worry about them everyday but there are a lot of others still out there on the front line like the shop staff who serve thousands of us every day. The care workers truck drivers etc each risking their own safety whilst majority of us are safe at home. I thank them all

My "Problem" JP is that the 3 devolved governments don't agree with his approach (Even the DUP and Sinn Fein are on the same page!), apparently his own ministers were blocked from discussions, a 50 page explanatory statement was issued AFTER the announcement and it's quite obvious that lots of people misunderstand.
Personally I gave him the benefit of the doubt and as I'm in the vulnerable category and have been for 10 years, PERHAPS I'm a little more aware of what he was saying, lots aren't it seems and thousands of people are dying.
The current approach DOES involve risks, that have to be taken sooner or later so ACCURATE communication is necessary IMO.
The only problem there is is the public. The UK has not been in a lockdown it was a lockdown in name only. Jo public has just ignored it and will keep ignoring it. They don't give a toss about anything but themselves I drive for a living and have been in work all though this sad affair yes the roads are very quiet but they are quiet on all school holidays. Other country's around the world gave out very harsh penalty's for breaking the lockdown we just told them your a naughty boy. They would be a bit more interested in staying at home if they were hit with a £500.00 fine on the spot and if not paid 6 weeks lockdown in a cell. Then we may just get rid of this virus
