Accuphase all the way down
Sean's point was that it's always the poor who pay. Sad that you think that's unavoidable.Whatever he does when it comes to voting it probably won't be avoidable, unless something unexpected happens.

Define 'viable'. Sunak, our warm cuddly Chancellor was the one who started off down this rabbit hole.This is absolutely what people need to get their head around. We are going to have to learn to live with the virus and our society will change because of it. I am all for shoring up the economy while we work out how to live with it (if only our 'progressive' government had yet realised this is what we need to do), but as you rightly say some jobs are never going to be viable again, in the medium term at least. People need to accept that as hard as it may be.

Define 'viable'. . .
The counter-argument is that these 'unviable' jobs are the things that fundamentally support our quality of life,
the glue that binds our society..
Yes it is and it's disturbing and it probably goes quite deep into the zeitgeist -- just like there are people who believe in flat earth and QAnon. I'm not sure what to say about it myself yet, it's as if the concepts of truth, scientific method have been relegated, demoted.

The counter-argument is that these 'unviable' jobs are the things that fundamentally support our quality of life, and help with the glue that binds our society. Hopsitality - meals in restaurants, drinks in pubs and bars, or just a coffee in a cafe; entertainment and the arts more generally. These are not, as this question of viability seems to assume, simply optional accessories we can easily do without. So a better question is: 'what does it take to make them viable, and are we prepared to fund it?'. If you can accommodate fewer people, then the price per head has to go up. If you go beyond a certain level, affordability and accessibility drops, so you need to consider subsidy. Problem is, subsidy comes from the pockets of the wealthy, and we know how averse they are to that. They prefer the rest of us to pay more tax, so they don't have to.
If you caught Starmer he actually said 'at least two weeks' at lot of people took that to be two weeks - not me... I told you yesterday that the circuit breaker would have to be a couple of months long
That's certainly not what Rachel Reeves said today on Marr.
blah blah blah It's not that the [Test and Trace] system is slowing down it's that the virus is accelerating fast. If you do have an increased incidence in infection then any test and trace system of whatever kind has less utility, because a test and trace system is specifically designed to be at its most effective when you're bringing infection rates down blah blah blah.
2 to three weeks and then 28 days slipped out of her mouth.
Gove said something interesting about Test and Trace -- what do you make of this?
Looks bad for a Sunday.16982 case posted today, only 632 hospitals and 67 deaths.
Looks bad for a Sunday.
What I mean is I think the figures are bad even for what i would expect to be released on a Sunday.It's Friday, they run two days behind. I guess people have more support at home at the weekends so try to tough it out...

Some Manchester hospitals, Stockport, Salford and Bolton are already full

Yep and in a couple of weeks many others across the whole country will be heading that way, the national lockdown U-turn will have to come but unfortunately Boris being the monumental cockwomble that he is will now be even less likely to do it sooner as it will look like Burnham was right... which of course he was!
