Fully expecting a lockdown notification to ping on my phone from BBC News
A lockdown needs to happen, a proper one. The click and collect nonsense is still inviting people to mix.
It’s not ideal but what else is there now?

Ooh New Year, new thread, nearly locky d 3!
If it hasn’t happened by Friday I will be amazed. I reckon we will be going from Tier 2-tier 5 in 2 weeks.
I’m geared up to go to the office tomorrow to deal with the post etc fully expect not to be going back again 
What is the difference between lockdown and 80% of England already being in tier 4 and the other 20% is still 3 where household mixing is banned and hospitality is also shut?
ROI.
We be screwed.
Double the hospital and ICU admissions in a week.
CUH has no ICU beds left.
its gonna be a long winter.

I’ve got to go into the office tomorrow to meet a new starter joining my team. Dreading it if I’m honest, I’ve not been in at all bar maybe 5 days since March, I have to go in to get her on site
Literally all shops closed bar supermarkets and pharmacies, and schools shut I imagine. That’s all that’s left really.
Ban on meeting another person, curfews, only leave the house once a day...
Im confused too. I’m tier 4 which I class as lockdown. No mixing travel or non essential shops. How much harsher restrictions can there be? The only thing is basically not letting people outside which they cannot do
But many of the shops that are still allowed to open in tier 4 were also open in March? I can’t see things like hardware shops, or material yards shutting being told to shut.
I thought in March everything like Primark and WHSmiths were shut? They were round here anyway. They could also implement the 1hr of outside exercise a day again I suppose.
Builders shops were open, click and collect.
They would only have to shut if some kind of law was put in place.. which I highly doubt.
Just checking the local rag and 6 schools are shut in Bristol currently, although it looks like more are being added...
There isn’t. It’s just a feeling I’m getting from all the political/media chatter today
Especially as construction is one of the areas that Boris is keen to keep open...
My OH works for a developer (who are just generally the worst employer I’ve ever come across and don’t trust their staff) and he’s been back in the office since July. They are using that construction loophole and he carried on in the office through the Nov lockdown, even though he is a Land Surveyor and has never worked onsite!
Primark had to close because it was clothing retail shops like that are shut in tier 4 which is over 3/4 of the country. To be honest things like WHSmiths could probably open last time and chose not to. All McDonald’s closed despite the governments allowing takeaway food and drive through. The main thing was businesses not being able to operate in a covid secure way back in March/ April.
That’s what I mean, building materials shops were allowed to open in the first lockdown which is why they are still allowed now.
