Are we seeing the END of our LOCAL - Pubs? - COVID - 19 - Update 3 - Health

Daily Mail: Reports " Pubs and restaurants must stay closed for another two months - but Boris Johnson offers 'glimmer of hope' saying hospitality industry could reopen in July "

Lets Get Real:

IF nothing else the COVID - 19 crisis has saved the livers of millions of British citizens, they will not have had a drink in months, of course that all depends on them not getting beer from the super market.  Before the lockdown this blog made sure it had enough Buds to last for the duration, that is two bottles ever Saturday in till the we are allowed to go out again and enjoy life.  The preventing of  a British Citizen from going to the pub is a disaster for the community, it allows people to blow off steam, complain about the Government etc.    Also let's look at the economy, a lot of pubs will be forced to close, they will not have the resources of the big chains.  There should be peaceful demos in London, WE WANT OUR PUBS BACK!!.

COVID - 19 - Update 2 - Health

Sky News: Reports " Some restrictions lifted, but rule-breakers could now face bigger fines...The PM says people are encouraged to "take more and even unlimited amounts" of exercise, provided they maintain social distancing.  "

Lets Get Real:

The PM will be under pressure in about three weeks to open up the economy or face there being no economy to go back too and millions of people out of work.   The UK Treasury can not afford to pay 80% of the wages of workers all around the UK.  Even if Scotland and Wales refuse to budge the PM to overrule them and revoke their powers in this area.  The UK economy has to get going otherwise the Great Depression of the 1930s will look like happy hour for the UK.   The British workers can not just sit on his backside and be depressed, that does not help anyone.  It is matter of thinking what Churchill would do, he would take the fight to the disease, get the people BACK TO WORK.  There is not endless time. 

PM Boris is trying the impossible, keeping the UK healthy and getting the Economy moving - Covid - 19 Update - Health

BBC News: Reports " Boris Johnson has unveiled a "conditional plan" to reopen society, allowing people in England to spend more time outdoors from Wednesday.  "

Lets Get Real:

The PM has a problem, his backbenches see the images of the Great Depression coming back, and they want to see the economy going, while the hack politicians in Scotland and Wales want the English tax payer to carry on paying for their employees to get wages and sit on their backsides and worry.   The PM has been very cautious, the up - lifting of the lockdown was conditional on the Rate, that being the number of infections that can happen in the community.  The Labour Party under its new effective leader see a weakness, thus expect them to be become more political.  One has to say the PM did not look great, the eyes gave the impression that he has not fully recovered from his close shave with COVID - 19.   One the whole a  good speech, the big decisions will happen in three weeks time, there is the argument ( by some ) that the Government should have taken no action, and let the virus burn itself out, as was the case with the Spanish flu in 1918.   The cost in deaths made that path a no go area, tough time to be a British PM.
