Just do you know, you brought numbers into it first. ‘Our numbers line up with...’.
So don’t talk absolute rubbish about undermining their use in the first place.
I’m using investment bank research as a source, who in turn have access to the best sources of information that money can pay for, Ive got access to access to the opinion of leading epidemiologists on a weekly basis, and able to read expert opinion on the impact on the economy. It includes direct updates from previous chancellors and members of treasury select committees, as well as previous heads of the Bank of England.
The actions of the U.K. government are assessed constantly.
The numbers *are* important. And the opinion of those I’m listening to are valid.
And they are saying that mistakes have been made and people have died because of it. They are saying that the slow reaction means that the lockdown measures need to be in place longer. And that because we aren’t well placed to track and trace that we are likely to see more of a W shaped recession (which increases the likelihood of actual redundancies and more than just furloughed employment).
everyone can be wrong but I’m guessing their sources and their opinions are much better informed than yours.
