Which is why it's a really grey area

Tbh there's two "simple" things they can do to alleviate the situation

Make statutory sick pay rise from £95 per week to at least £180

Issue an amnesty on any bills and mortgages/rent until this is over

hmm which would be better for the UK economy in the long run?

Our economy has been in the shitter for a long time

They should do both

Idgaf

until this is over

And it's not like the rest of the world will be in a better position

are you thinking what i'm thinking?

damn

We wasted precious time dithering in this issue because of the "economy"

I never want to hear it be prioritised over peoples lives again

We can borrow in dollars, whatever we need, and repay it in small amounts for the next 60 years

Like the Dawes arrangements

There, economy fixed

Yeah considering it was a short while ago "yeah let's get 60% of people to get it fam"

Funny how that's changed

"if you die, you die"

:gandalfwhite:

Sorry Noah, I mean it's an all encompassing issue right now

This is far more than just money or politics, it's a change to way of life, its life and death

To our credit, we haven't talked about it all day

Definitely

The 18 year old that died yesterday

And we just got this news a couple hours ago so we're freshly talking about it

The only co morbidity he had was MILD asthma

Yeah...
