Just had this through from my cousin who is a boss at Network Rail. A generic outline of what to expect in the UK announcement on Sunday.

Phase 1 - 18th May
Phase 2 - 8th June
Phase 3 - 29th June

Return to phase 1 do not pass Go.
Social distancing seems to be slacking, hardly any masks.
Illegal immigrants still coming from Europe. Testing falling short. Relying on herd immunity to sort things out as yet no vaccine.
hmmm, all a bit pie in the sky. |

"Sorry to have to point out but that is the Irish government's plan.
Who knows what ours will look like? Probably no one yet. "
Is it? Interesting.
I was dubious and told the person who sent me it so, but thought I’d post up to see the reaction anyway  |

Google Irish lockdown dates and they all match up.
I knew the dates right away as we get their news up here in NI. |

The references to cocooning and GAA would indicate this relates to the Republic of Ireland. I haven't seen the 5 phases and dates for easing lockdown that Leo Varadkar set out on Friday last but perhaps this is where this originated |

There's is also a traffic light roadmap on many news sites but I think it's just a guess or reporters opinion of dates and how we move forward as they are estimating some places opening from Monday.
It's on Metro and many other sites. |

"Restriction will be extended from 5km to 20km"
What does this relate to? It is not illegal in England to drive to the countryside for exercise as long as the period of exercise is longer than the drive.

"Construction sites have not been closed here, builders merchants are open, etc etc
Might be a plan but it's not the uk one"
Yep, same in North Worcs - house building has continued unabated throughout the lockdown |
