Yeah that was ****y but not part of today’s speech unless I missed it. Bloke sounded like he knew he was out of his depth and listening to the adults with him.
Yeah, CNN - who have often been the target of his rage - are reporting that he was finally trying to act Presidential.
That was more than I expected they’d announce. Several measures there to help businesses and individuals. For businesses lots of interest free (for 6 months) loans available and some grants and no rates. Mortgage holidays of 3 months for those affected by coronavirus.
Suggested that insurance companies would be made to pay out, would like to see details of that.
Let’s hope it’s all in place as quickly as possible and that it’s enough!

That was before it had an [HASHTAG]#official[/HASHTAG] name which the international community decided on
Trump also used the official name up until he got some disappointing [HASHTAG]#poll[/HASHTAG] data so decided to unilaterally rename it
Rishi comes across like he knows what he’s doing. A rarity in politics these days! Surely he’s a future candidate for PM.
I think the daily press conference updates are working well in terms of feeling like they are actually keeping people informed and it feeing like they have plans in place and are trying to adapt to the situation.
Wonder if it’ll continue to feel that way as things get progressively more extreme...

Seems like some decent support and help in place now to help businesses and mortgage payments. My worry is that now puts the onus onto business owners to do the right thing and not lay people off, taking advantage of the loans available. Problem is I have no trust in business to choose to go into debt rather than just lay people off.
Everything is loans.
Would you take out a loan to pay staff on a closed business?
I think many will opt to let them go and re-hire once the tide has turned

That's down to the people, see how much British give a **** about one another. We now know, out in the open, the government are supporting them if they want that support. If your boss denies that, your boss is a ****. Simple as.
