    That is sadly a lot truer than people understand. The amount of people who are alcoholics in denial is crazy

    I'm not condoning any of this behaviour.

    But I can see the government rubbing their hands as they see folk turning on each other.

    I read that with a mouthful of cookie. I could quite happily eat cakes and biscuits until I was physically sick. And then carry on

    Exactly - the lockdown expires Thursday but rather than come out and say anything on Thursday its all about a 'plan' that will be revealed by Bojo on Sunday.

    If the government had wanted people to take things seriously there's no reason Boris couldn't have stood up and make an announcement yesterday.

    I don't think anyone is coming up with an excuse. I certainly don't think there's any excuse for holding a street party however I do think that the mixed messages this week will be a cause of them. Not an excuse but a reason. People are idiots and need to be given the absolute clearest information possible and stay home street party is about as confusing as it can get for an idiot.

    We’re heading for the biggest recession in history. Once the government subsidies have dried up, there will be huge job losses

    I agree, we may be past the much talked about "peak" but the future is far from bright.
