    According to the paper this morning Rishi has been at loggerheads with Hancock and Gove over the lack of clarity in their directives

    Telling people who have lost their jobs to switch careers shows he's nothing but a dickhead!

    To let Hancock and Gove be more powerful than him shows he's nothing but a dickhead.

    To make allow one of the worst PM in history make your job slowly become untenable shows he's nothing but a dickhead.

    I would have thought advising people to switch careers after losing jobs is actually good advice mate. I would have thought a successful businessman such as yourself would appreciate that

    No, it's not!

    A teacher wants to be a bloody teacher mate not a warehouse worker.

    Teachers are not losing their jobs because of Covid

    If someone is in a profession that is affected by Covid, surely it is in their best interests to look at another career.

    Nah. Just sit at home on 80% pay for a year or so. Much easier.

    What do you do? You sound like a person that's not effected by the economy meltdown.

    If we have it your way we will be all locked in our houses 24/7/.

    Depends what you mean by unaffected. I took a 10% wage cut in March and my missus works as a supplier to the university industry so is clinging onto her job by a finger nail. If she loses it though there's no point bitching, she'll have to find something else to do.

    You're very weird. I've never said I want people locked up 24/7. I've been out socialising and I've been travelling so hardly advocating that. Just mindful of the fact there is a balance to achieve.

    You'll see..Kids at top schools are all started to be given laptops and home education will start again. Less teachers will be required and currently the private sector is getting hammered but we all know the public sector will soon get it badly!!

    Telling you this government will hammer this country! Rule out my prediction as much as you want but I will be right.

    It’d be in their much better interest to not destroy swathes of the economy and certain industries/professions, needlessly....
