"Yes I do on the whole but I really think there should have been more effort to get the kids back to school. "
Safety first no i think we are still in the same situation as when it started there is Nothink different
Everyone with not meeting due to covid on their profile shouldnt be jumping up to the fact that we can meet again. Confuses me because the government hasnt done anythink
Everyone who didnt catch it is going to catch it. Feel sorry for the vulnerable |

You don't have to follow the crowd so to speak.. no one says you HAVE to start going out and doing all the things they say you can..do it in your own time |

"Over 40,000 dead and virus not gone
Better run countries with proper leaders are seeing a resurgence
And Boris the clown wants to see "bustling activity"
Are you all mad????"
There’s a lot of it about.  |

Disagree.
It's too soon. Nothing has changed. Still 100+ deaths a day.
Sure, I can make my own decisions and I will continue to isolate as much as possible. But I have to go out sometimes and the more people who are running around acting as though everything is back to normal - the higher the risk that I will come into contact with it.
People are already not respecting social distancing, which is driving me mad. |

Most people are surely? I think the overwhelming number of people have been fantastic during the last few months. A pat on the back where it’s due.
Mind you - could be because I can never get anyone to come closer than two metres anyway! |

"Do you agree or disagree"
I agree for the sake of the economy; but disagree on health grounds. So it’s mixed feelings for me.
So now it will be up to individuals to decide how they chose to live.
Personally, I will continue with my own form of lockdown for now.
I will lift it when I feel confident to do so, most likely when there is improvement in track & trace. |

Disagree.
But you have to be responsible for yourself regardless. I'm still choosing to stay inside as much as possible and I'm still furloughed until the end of July at the earliest. |

I think, bearing in mind we’re doing this after much of mainland Europe (who had their wave before us) it’s a lot safer doing it now than it would’ve been doing it first
There does not appear to be any evidence of a second wave in Europe in those countries whose first is on the way out after lockdown has eased, so it’s not unreasonable to follow them for now
What will happen regardless though is local outbreaks eg the meat factory in Germany etc - they will happen here as well and we need to be active and aggressive in controlling them |

We’ve been lifting for over a month now - people have been close together at beaches - in parks , and in London ... still all the infection rate and death rates fall... 100% agree with the lifting |

**”...... people have been close together at beaches - in parks , and in London .....”**
Those places you mentioned were all outdoors.
This time people will be close together indoors - where there is a greater risk of transmission compared to being close together outdoors.
So this time people will have to act more sensibly compared to how they acted a few weeks ago. |

We all know how the virus works and the risks, it's up to us now. Let's stop keep asking the government what we should do and hold our hand, time we all grew up all start acting like adults. This virus is going to with us for a long time, and we need to move on. |

I really hope you are right but its still too early to tell.
We had our first confirmed case on 31st jan but didn't get the peak until mid April. |

I fully understand caution. I will continue to be sensible and sensitive myself.. it's all we can do. I'm hopeful that enough people will do the same.
With the easing measures, we are not going to be in the same position as before lockdown so any spread surely can't be anything like before.
I hope so anyway x |

If case numbers are rising rapidly like last time we’ll see it happening - what we decide to do about it is another question
But we’ll see it happening this time |

I know few private clubs opening on the 4th of July. I pose a question to myself.... should I go or shouldn't I be going.
This will come down to how strong my wheel power is...how I control myself on this kind of situation as we the People trying to minimise the risk of getting contracted with Corona virus. Getting closer to Locked down being Lifted....Id say decision making is all it matters.... |

I agree that we should lift step by step, following strong scientific evidence that each is the right thing to do.
A permanent lockdown can't happen and 1 wholesale relaxation would have been stupid and he hurtful to those it would harm. |

"Yes I do on the whole but I really think there should have been more effort to get the kids back to school. "
The teachers did not want the kids back to school as they wanted to keep them at home with parents till September and once the unions got involved they were never going back as every time they changed something to get them back the unions said now do this change this they didn’t want them back till after the summer break if they did they would have been back and from what iv read the teachers have not been setting the work for kids to do at home even and parents didn’t make them do it when it was set out for them so as far as I can see it falls to both the teachers and parents if we have a generation of fuck knuckles because of covid it’s of kids these days are way to soft and precious need to
some discipline in there lives

I think it should be fully lifted, open everywhere and put our health responsibility in our hands, we are all perfectly capable of social distancing (even the kids in infant schools can manage it)
Washing and sanitizing our hands frequently and wearing a suitable face covering, if the vulnerable need to shield then we should be helping them to, spend as much time as possible socialising with friends outside and infrequently indoors. |

Oh Really?
Good thing Boris is lifting it in stages rather than lifting ‘everything’ as you suggest.
With everything they’ve got wrong so far, lifting the restrictions is not another one they should get wrong.

Apparently the WHO approves of the way the U.K. is lifting restrictions.
Dr Mike Ryan, the head of emergencies at the World Health Organization (WHO), has praised the UK for the way it is easing restrictions.
He said there had been a "steady, slow and step-wise exit from lockdown conditions" in the country.
Dr Ryan said the government had communicated the changes to the population at large and to the WHO – with a consistent dialogue between the four nations of the UK over regional differences.
He said testing in the UK had now increased and the "surveillance system is capable of understand where the disease is".
His comments came after UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced the next level of lockdown easing would take place on 4 July, when businesses such as pubs and restaurants can reopen under government guidelines. |

They have not learned anything from the Spanish flue epidemic .
The second wave was far more serious than the fist episode.
There are probably more people in the country with it no than there was in march.

Glad we are in Wales tbh although a little jealous of biker mates back in England going out all the time.
Our kids won’t be going back till Sept partly because they would only be going back for two days before they break up & partly because the eldest needs shielding but they’ll have to go back at some point regardless of what’s happening out there.
Agree with another poster that the schools haven’t really been setting enough work especially for the older kids, BBC bitesize & other educational sites have helped there though.

"We cant hide forever"
Boris fucked up easing of lockdown same as he fucked up everything else
An easing of lockdown is exactly that,an easing
Not Boris wanting to see bustling activity!!? In the middle of a pandemic
Other Tory gobshites saying in parliament for people to go to pubs and drink for Britain. I kid you not
50,000 dead and go drink for Britain
I'd expect nothing else but mixed messages from that cunt Boris

Yes. People still need to leave the house. And people working don't have a choice but to encounter those behaving stupidly.
This isn't an individual thing, it's a community effort  |
