Absolutely. Even if you're not told to cancel them, I think they should be.Do we think things like kids partys are gonna have to be cancelled?
Also I think they have now realised the number of cases and deaths is more than what they thought for this stage, seems a bit of a U turn in some things that where said.
We booked a party for my daughter for her fourth next month. We were about to pass out invitations but I called the venue and cancelled a few days ago. I imagine it would've been cancelled anyway, despite the fact it was only going to be a small party.Do we think things like kids partys are gonna have to be cancelled?

They have kind of explained this. They know as well as you and I do that a large number of Brits won't behave and won't stay locked down for long. So they are holding off from formally closing cinemas etc down - for now. They keep talking about keeping measures until they will have maximum impact. If they kneejerk lock-down today then people will be back on the streets within days. What they are doing is giving a few days for people to talk about and get used to the idea. I'd expect the big lockdown to come at the weekend. By then people should be ready for it and hopefully will behave a bit better and stay locked down longer.So basically Boris and his team are just giving us some advice, but not enforcing anything. How is that going to help?! People will not stop going to the pubs/clubs/cinemas unless they are closed.
Same. A cancer nurse at present but with critical care background. Think I’ll be pulled despite not doing a clinical shift for many years.First death was announced where I work earlier today. Not quite sure what job I’ll be doing during all this. Shits got real and we’re still non the wiserwouldn’t be so bad if I didn’t live with my dad who’s over 70
Interesting view. Actually this is what I have to do with my son, (who has adhd) introduce an idea to him first give him time to understand it then he will more often than not accept it. Actually I probably am like that too.They have kind of explained this. They know as well as you and I do that a large number of Brits won't behave and won't stay locked down for long.

Every country has people that won't behave. We shut our pubs down and the ones that went against it are after getting fined. When this happens and the public go against it thats when they'll bring in the army. They should be closing down shops like selfridges etc and restaurants.They have kind of explained this.

It wont be that low will it? And presume you will paying half or something until its all back to normal ?how are you supposed to pay your rent on £94 a wk?
I just cancelled my sons birthday party which was booked for this Friday. He has autism and attends a special needs school and I really didn’t want to take the risk as it was a soft play party and a lot of the children would have been vulnerable.Not my kids party by the way, just asking as we have several coming up
Self employed only get £73 per week. Obviously the self employed don't need as much to live on as the employed!how are you supposed to pay your rent on £94 a wk?
I'm with you. I wonder if for a lot of people their political affiliations are clouding their views. Could people be forming an opinion based on the messenger rather than the message?I'm thankful im in the UK because I think we are doing things correctly, so as not to have the massive spike like Italy, France, Germany have, they are on their knees and not coping, I just hope that what we are doing will prevent us ending up like the rest of Europe.
Nothing mentioned asthmatics. It was those with chronic illnesses and those you've listed above.Where can we find more clarity on the "extra" socail distancing.
He said this includes over 70's, pregnant women and those who get the annual flu jab. Does this include asthmatics?
I have googled but can't find anything.
It also give those of us who want to do it, an 'excuse'. With employers, family and friends, we can now say it is government advice without expecting any kind of backlash.I actually think these measure are good, they’re essentially easing us all into it before they say we have no choice.
I'll message the parents asking, then saying I won't be going.Absolutely. Even if you're not told to cancel them, I think they should be.
