    I'm guessing that the government will collect the numbers today, have the Cobra meeting tomorrow morning and be on “lock down” soon after.

    Policing the lockdown will be difficult - how do you prove if someone is a key worker or not? They could ask for some kind of work ID but how do they know if your business counts as key workers or not? Since cleaners, maintenance, food suppliers etc are being classed as key workers at the moment.

    I suppose it’ll be up to the officer to make a decision... it’s the same with schools, how do they know if you go to drop your kids at school that you’re a key worker??

    Good question. When parents drop their kids off tomorrow, we've been told by the powers that be, we're not allowed to ask for proof of them being a key worker.

    The first is people queuing for food in the UK.

    The second is the same but in Italy.

    Seems like us, the US and Oz are all similar while the supposedly emotional continental types get it.

    We all have similar leaders.

    I work for a FMCG company which would be considered in the key worker group, although my role means that I should not need to go into the office. I’m assuming if I needed to, I would have to provide some company identification if stopped by the authorities?

    Yeah I’m similar in that the company I work for provides services to various key worker premises amongst other things, so I’m pretty sure I technically count as a key worker though I can mostly just work from home and do everything electronically.

    A lot of the staff I’ve got though will need to keep physically going to locations to do their job so I am curious as to how they prove that they count as key workers...

    BBC is massively pro-vegan, and any pro any other BS wokeist agenda driven crap, I thought their coverage of women's football would prove that.

    The vast amount of Amazon was cleared for soya farming, the proof of that is it's by far Brazils biggest export, 25% more towards the GDP than the 2nd placed export. The sudden increase in soya farming caused so much deforestationof the Amazon that they put a moritorium on using deforested land. Of course there is always a way around the moritorium which is why, despite it being a 'success', soya farms have grown 260% since then, and that's because cows are the way around it, rather than the cause. They clear the land, stick cows on it, then move the cows to some more land they've cleared and say 'we didn't clear this land for soya' and then grow soya on it.
    That is what is actually happening, regardless of what any agenda driven propaganda may tell you, yes it's mainly used as animal feed, but if the world stops eating meat and switches to soya why is that going to improve the situation?
