It should afford him the empathy to appreciate that for some people, they need to be at work. When you're in a position of complete financial security, it should perhaps be with caution that you start judging others.

I’d be suggest we do similar to other EU countries but when we have a daily average death and infection rate similar to theirs. To do it earlier seems reckless.
I’d also endure that our testing capacity is improved and importantly ensure the testing is used effectively.

So Hancock reckons there could be a vaccine by Autumn?
Deaths at least finally look to be going down in today's figures. Need this to continue now
Did he mention what year?
I live in Argyll and we have had very little of it. It’s been hard for folk to understand as there is so little evidence of it around here. However there are reports am that half a care team in a home in a local town have been tested and have it with no symptoms. For it to be there it has to be in way more places than we think. I bet there’s a strong chance that way more of us have had it then realise. It’ll be interesting to see who has had it and who hasn’t if the get an antibody test. Either way it seems Nicola has got it right to keep us locked down for longer.
This year apparently. I didn't watch but was on This Morning a friend said. Completely goes against what the CMO said last night haha.
I know nothing about vaccines obviously.
But surely no one knows when one will come. We'll only know when someone works it out and proves it works. Not sure how anyone can say a date with any certainty

That's the one thing that is fact though?
read this article in today’s Guardian, it explains what we should be doing and why some people are questioning the government responsible:
Unless the government changes tack, the UK's lockdown will have been for nothing | Devi Sridhar
Easing social distancing without a proper programme of testing, contact tracing and isolating will lead to a second wave of coronavirus, asks Devi Sridhar, chair of global public health at the University of Edinburghwww.theguardian.com
But as vague and wooly as BJ's speech was, didn't he say exactly that?
That there needed to be more testing and tracing for those next steps to be lifted?
pictures posted on here the last few weeks would tend to disagree
