Below the line it is pretty toxic, on the one hand you have commentators outright accusing the government of deliberately killing the old, weak and vulnerable while simultaneously they are making snide gleeful remarks about how elderly Brexiteers are going to get their comeuppance.

Reminds me of General Montgomery's plan for the Battle of El Alamein. The initial phase required the clearing of a pathway through the vast German minefields. It was called "Operation Lightfoot" If amy government’s response is as meticulously planned as a Montgomery offensive then we’d be in good s...

It is really hard to see how political journalists can continue to take the lead in reporting this. Adjusting policy as the situation develops and data becomes clearer is surely classic crisis management, not shocking u turns etc I was thinking this this morning on a stroll.

Would it be possible to create a separate thread for the Irish to slap themselves on the back about how good they are and how bad the Brits are. It's getting a bit bloody tedious reading their shite.

I would sell any shares you have in any company that does serviced offices. People sinply won’t go back to the office full time. What I hope this means is people are less stressed by being stuck to a desk and presenteeism, less stressed because they’re not stuck next to people they hate and incompet...

Problem with isolation for the over 70s is a significant number of them are like that bloke on the cruise ship and think the law doesn’t really apply to them. No way they’ll actually follow it.

I’m kind of hoping the government is going to issue a call for volunteers during Boris’ press conference - I’d love to help out in some way but not really sure how.

I genuinely think the banks are going to help with mortgages. I just hope all the people in rented accommodation will be protected. Any landlord evicting people because of the Virus should be attacked by mobs with pitchforks. No doubt a lot of the buy to let brigade will take the mortgage relief bu...

Quick scan of linkedin suggests people in the more precarious end of the services industry are being let go today.

I don’t even think Sarries should be able to loan players out, and other clubs are dumb for taking them. Wonder how many clubs will go under now due to coronavirus?

I just watched the game again - England were very good for about 70 minutes some really excellent defensive sets and kicking duels. The 'wonder try' the Welsh got after half time really was done to a really shit restart chase - I can only imagine Ford kicked it to the wrong part of the pitch as onc...
