But if you can't work from home then go to work?
Confusing doesn't cover it, mate.

I didn't get it.
Either
- they don't give a fck about me
- they entered the wrong number
- their existing surveillance of me confirms I am following guidelines albeit my browsing habits are not very wholesome

the government need to be far more explicit as to what constitutes essential and key workers.
You look at the list they published and it covers almost everyone. Yet they are surprised transport is still busy when they have also reduced services

Government are purposely causing uncertainty so the country doesn’t go into a full on lock down all at once. In a weeks time or whatever Bojo will probably announce a full on lockdown where all non essential works must stay at home and those businesses should close down
