I don't know why but:
Oh hell yes, can we get someone shouting 'i am cornholio' when he goes outside
Nice fireplace and chandelier!! What a ****!!
It's not his though. Technically it is all of ours.
**** all of detail so far though
He's putting it off until tomorrow, basically so he can judge public opinion and tweak things to suit.
In other words he doesn't have a ****ing clue what he's doing.
Thursday, Suns out guns out.
So we can drive places for exercise?
Does that mean we can go on holiday to bike park Wales?
He just said you can go drive somewhere for unlimited exercise, really?!? Did I hear that right?
Reception, year 1 and year 6 as the first ones back?
Are they ****ing stupid, year 1 and reception would be impossible to social distance
Herd immunity it is then
He just said you can go drive somewhere for unlimited exercise, really?!? Did I hear that right?
yes, he did say that.
15 minutes of windbaggery.
He truly is utterly useless; potentially dangerous.
R number on it's way up.
You lot in England are screwed! Do us a favour and stay out of the other bits of the UK, everything's closed anyway.
Boris is going to have a lot of blood on his hands come the end of this.
Why from Wednesday? What's different about tomorrow and Tuesday?
His plan for Great Britain (except Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland). So, England then.
It’s down to employers then. Good luck!
It is going to be very revealing as to who the shit ones to work for are.
my place isn't looking at anything close to normal until next year, reduced occupancy and wfh for the forseeable.
He's shot his bolt a bit early.
I can practically hear people packing their bags to set off our for 'unlimited exercise' right now, tomorrow morning will be carnage!
+1 Graham
Reception and Year 1 .... Madness.
So nothing changes immediately except unlimited outdoor exercise.
The rest is a plan, subject to things being under control.
So the important question is, did all that mean I can or cannot take my KTM out?
How many bosses are watching this wondering what the **** tomorrow will look like having this sprung on them.
subject to things being under control.
Or we are back in lockdown. If it goes up, we get locked down again. A human experiment.
Won't be long until the infection rate goes up again then I suspect.
already seeing tons of posts on Facebook from people saying they are off paddling and driving places to do exercise
So - driving to the mountains for unlimited exercise from tomorrow or Wednesday?
He just said you can go drive somewhere for unlimited exercise, really?!? Did I hear that right?
yes, he did say that.
Looks like DH is on for sure

Can we exercise with family members not from our house?
Can we exercise with family members not from our house?
No. But I bet people will
No I think not
Unleash the people - it's going to crack the resolve of small businesses if they see crowds of people milling about. For the ones that are open - how are you going to manage to prevent locusting local stores. Is he trying to force a polite revolution against his own controls?
Omni shambles.
Has he now downgraded the over all impact of the virus - think he said in his life time.
Nice touch putting the get back to work emphasis on the employees - continuing the workshy narrative. Wonder how many small businesses are going - erm - oh heck.
Why does that graphic show R=1 as the peak? Wasn't R at well over 3 or 4 at one point and we've got it back down to ~1 with all the social distancing and restrictions?
So everyone is going to flood to national parks this week I guess.
He just said you can go drive somewhere for unlimited exercise, really?!? Did I hear that right?
Yes, but not Wales or Scotland, dont go there.
Hope lots of people have their tyres pumped up to go to work in the morning!!
Not looking forward to the commute tomorrow with all those people encouraged to be out in their cars, the 55 minute journey was down to 25 mins due to lack of traffic
Stay home, let me get to work and back more quickly
Well imho Boris has made a right **** up tonight .....
unlimited exercise .... I don’t have a problem with that
BUT
Allowing folks to drive unlimited distance to do it 😡... God help the Lakes, Dales and Coastal resorts etc
Encourage folks to go to work if they can’t work from home and it’s safe to do so ....O.K
But
What about all the small business owners who don’t get a mention 😡
And don’t even get me started on the new ****in slogan
Stay Alert 😡.... **** Off
Stick with
Stay Home
Protect the NHS
Save Lives

Guess we'll now get an answer to how much of an impact air pollution has on people developing more serious symptoms.
Madness. How on earth can they police unlimted drive for unlimited exercise at the scottish and welsh borders. Are we going to see places like glentress being besieged by people from south of the border? Its all still shut!!
Nice of Boris to offer England up as an experiment to watch the infection rate rise again.
Glad Nicola came on just after that in Scotland and said....don't be daft and very little of that applies to Scotland.
How long till we have people from England turning up to ride glentress. Glad there's little reason for them to head this far north.
Interesting to follow and seems they’re offering conditional hope at the same time as caution, also from the top of my head mirrors France.
Different to Wales, we’re still “Stay at Home” only go out if you have to, no unnecessary journeys, but at the same time if you fancy a couple of potted plants or an over-priced BBQ you can go to the garden centre, because apparently whilst I thought they were social clubs for the Middle Class Elderly, they provide a vital service that somehow cannot be provided by the Super Markets.
I don’t know how to feel, on one hand I’m glad we’re (at the moment) on the down slope, I did fancy a ride at Cwmcarn next weekend but on the other I know it would be a total cluster at first.
Great....Britain.
Thanks Boris, I'll be working on ITU for another few months then.
I expect a lot of emails will be flying about telling people NOT to go to work tomorrow!!!
We've endured a half-arsed lockdown that wasn't strong enough to significantly impact deaths but was strong enough to tank the economy.
Now people are fed up and I think basically the lockdown is effectively over now and will become unenforceable. I think constantly changing goalposts won't go down well with the public.
The tabloids have basically declared lockdown 'over' while the message from government is vague. I think there's going to be hell to pay.
Why does that graphic show R=1 as the peak? Wasn’t R at well over 3 or 4 at one point and we’ve got it back down to ~1 with all the social distancing and restrictions?
Full lockdown threshold, above R1 and its back to the beginning
I was trying to process all the guff coming out his mouth but didn't hear him say we could drive wherever we wanted to exercise. I just heard him say we could exercise as much as we wanted, with family.
Is a transcript available anywhere yet so we can verify the different versions we all think we heard?
Not claiming to be right, just saying what I thought I heard.
How many bosses are watching this wondering what the **** tomorrow will look like having this sprung on them.
I daren't go & look at my phone.
I expect a UK board & leadership team meeting will be in full flow by 8am 😆
Never a dull moment.
