    Is that they do official communications that contain a load of vagueness, then they try and fill the gaps in on BBC Breakfast etc afterwards. Why not just do a proper address in the first place? Either they are trying to confuse the public to blame them afterwards or they’re inept.

    NB, there are a million other things that they piss me off with too.

    Glad you put the last NB in there - I was worried there was only one thing and couldn't see how any sane person could think that

    It should probably have been titled the thing that pisses me off the most today.

    I can accept that some mistakes will be made when implementing lockdown as it’s a completely new and weird thing to have to do in the first place. There is no excuse whatsoever that the comms weren’t right last night. None at all.

    How dare folks get things wrong during a global pandemic that's unpresidented in living memory. I'm sure if Corbin was in charge we'd all be back down well now watching the super reds then off to pub for a pint......

    Have you ever needed an electrician. So you ring up your electrician. You get his quote. You give him the go ahead. He then proceeds to fck it up royally, does a terrible job. People then say why did you give him the job - he's got a proven track record of fcking things up. What do you say?

    If you're answer is "well at least I didn't employ the other electrician, he would have been miles worse" then you can't be helped.

    If you're answer is "no, I'd ring back my sparky and I'd bollock him till he did it right before settling my bill" then you might at least be at ground zero.

    I best get some face masks for my commutes. Don't want some jobsworth guard telling me I can't board a train without a mask. I think it will be worse with bus travel. At the minute the guards on the trains are too **** scared to come near passengers.

    It would have been quicker, easier and uncomplicated just to have inserted the word 'everything'

    Yes we do not have a president, we have a Prime Minister.

    I am sorry that criticising the current government's handling of this situation has hurt your ickle feelings so much. You must have been shocked to read that this thread would discuss this, given the ambiguous title.
