COVID -19 Update 1 - Lockdown Phase 2


Lets Get Real:

Thus England will go NOW have a 2nd lockdown, also the furlough scheme will go on in till December.  The costs of COVID - 19 in lives has been great, on the whole older people with underlying conditions are the main group to suffer.   One the economic side, the young have been either been sacked from jobs in pubs etc or are on furlough, the cost the UK Treasury makes the eyes water.  Next year the Chancellor will want to put up taxes to pay back for the costs of COVID- 19, that is based on there being a vaccine early next year.   This does raise an interesting question, Wales is supposed to come out of its circuit  break on the 9th of November, will that still happen, one does not have to be a genius to work out that some people from England with 2nd homes in Wales might fancy a break from COVID - 19 by coming to Wales, will we close the borders.
