We must face the fact. It is here to stay.
That is a fact government is reluctant to admit.

Covid-19: PM announces four-week England lockdown

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-54763956

People can leave their homes:
  • for education
  • for work, if you cannot work from home
  • for exercise and recreation outdoors
  • for medical reasons
  • to shop for food and essentials
  • to care for others

Bars and restaurants will close, but takeaways can continue to operate - as in the spring lockdown

Essential shops will remain open

Schools and universities will be kept open throughout this period, unlike in the lockdown earlier this year
Nothing new followed by an awful lot of waffle - BJ's address to Parliament on Wednesay may be more enlightening about the application of controls .....

Whatever 'rules' or advice are announced I think it our duty and to obey them whether we think them right or wrong.
Like the man (Boris) or not, he is between the devil and the deep blue sea.

'Immediate prospect' of rapid Covid tests

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/uk-54762974

The PM says: "Over the next few days and weeks we plan a steady but massive expansion in the deployment of quick turnaround tests," he says.

They could be used to test "whole towns and even whole cities", says the PM, adding that the programme will "begin in a matter of days" and will be assisted by the military.
Sounds like a "Moonshot" to me .....

This is a situation we, all the countries in this World alive now have never been in before. It's trial & error to sort it & quite honestly I not want to have to. Hind sight is a wonderful thing but Boris is doing his best.
I wonder if you could have done better? I doubt it with the knowledge our government had at the start.
