Only thing I'm properly confused about now how are businesses that can't WFH but are office based going to handle this? Seems like there should have been guidance or rules before an announcement on a Sunday night.
I'm hoping there'll be some more extensive guidance later about what we should be going out for vs not allowed. |
We are keeping all of our office staff working from home for probably rest of this year.
Some operational staff have been furloughed, but over the last few weeks it has been getting busier so starting to get people back and working with revised operational procedures and additional PPE. Each job reviewed on its merits and risk assessed. |  | | |

We can get out and cycle round the lanes of the Ipswich-Shotley-Sudbury Golden Triangle as much as we like. Huzzah! Not that it wil make any difference to me, I'll get out on my bike, come home knackered and be done for the day. |  |

I’ve got a barbell and 50kgs of weights being delivered tomorrow.
I am rather looking forward to some snatches and thrusters.
I might even do Fran for a bit of fun which is
21-15-9 reps of Thrusters and Pull Ups. |  |

So he's wrong to continue following the expert advice? |
If he had followed the WHO advice in the first place, we'd have a death toll of at least 30,000 fewer. |  | | |

I actually thought that was pretty well presented. I don't think he's a great public speaker, but the information was mostly reasonable and well laid out. |  |

You have a point but the issue is that it’s not the people with half a brain and a modicum of common sense that will be confused. It’s the rest of the people that unfortunately need telling exactly what to do (of which some will push or even try to ignore the boundaries). | | | |

On our own rather than in packs. If you push on and need fueling, a can confirm maltloaf is light and gives a boost :-) |  |

Oh I agree, the middle and confusion of the last 4 days is unacceptable, but that speech was ok enough. |
It was okay, but imprecise.
The burden is still on “all of us”.
There is still a burden on the Government to deliver on what they need to do. And be very open and clear on what they are achieving.
The issue I see is that imprecision and trying to nudge things along, is stuff like, get back to work on public transport, will lead to non-social distancing and a wider spread.
Also, what was imprecise Is the idea of having levels, but stating things like, we are just over the line.
How about announcing the rationale on the levels, state the current level stays in place.
And what will happen during the next level, that gives time for employers and employees to prepare.
The consideration of whether the next level has been reached will be reviewed on X date. |  | | |

Nothing really changes but some potential dates for people to start planning for. Lots of people including Starmer have been asking for the Gov to publish potential unlock dates to help people plan, that was part of the message. It was also explaining any dates may still need to be fluid based on the infection rates. |
Starmer was calling for a plan or strategy. I don't think that's what we got. |  |

"I will be setting out more details in Parliament tomorrow and taking questions from the public in the evening"
"So work from home if you can, but you should go to work if you can’t work from home."
1And to ensure you are safe at work we have been working to establish new guidance for employers to make workplaces COVID-secure".
"And when you do go to work, if possible do so by car or even better by walking or bicycle. But just as with workplaces, public transport operators will also be following COVID-secure standards"
Personally I think we are a couple of weeks too early but we will see what the guidelines are tomorrow. I think the big problem is people getting to work rather than people at work. [Post edited 10 May 2020 19:57]

Likewise on the wfh front. In all likelihood we will move most people to wfh permanently. |  |

Yeah, getting to work, especially in the cities, is going to be difficult for many. Hopefully employers will be flexible and not demanding that people go in anyway otherwise it'll be chaos.
My concern with actually working is how on earth businesses retrofit and office at any speed.
Nothing really to get upset about in the speech, devil will be in the detail for me. |  |

Vague around schools. Reception, year 1 and year 6 1st June. Are the rest phased in between then and the end of the term? Are schools to maintain social distance? The reason for Year 6 is around transition. But the secondary schools will not be reopening until September except for exam Year 10 so none of that transition work won't take place. Indeed the secondary schools locally have said no transition work will take place and no teachers will visit the Year 6s. | | | |

Quite.
We have the manner in which the road map will be applied and monitored but we don't have the road map.
People and businesses will need unambiguous instructions - such was ever the case. |  |

So he's wrong to continue following the expert advice? |
You don't have to be an expert to work out that this is a catastrophic c0ck up and the impatience of this government is going to lead to more unnecessary deaths. You really think he's following expert advice? Like at the start when he ignored the experts? The economy comes first it's the Conservative way. Hideous bunch of hairy sphincters. | | | |

A few things I’m going with
Only in the office if productivity can’t be maximised at home.
Lifts are for use for only those with mobility challenges, one at a time.
No passing on the stairs.
No more hotdesking, obvs.
Smaller meeting rooms and pods changed to singular use for confidential calls.
Spaced queues for the bogs.
Communal spaces closed.
Kitchens unavailable. | |

There needs to be flexible working hours with staggered starts/ finishes to make it doable without major public transport issues. Maybe that will be in the detail tomorrow. Maybe. | |

If he is going to speak about this in more detail tomorrow in the house then he should have said work starts from Wednesday - which is what I thought he said but it doesn't seem he did now I've read the text - unless the text hasn't been transcribed correctly. | |
