It's good that you can get a hair cut from 12th April then, isn't it

What are the styles permitted? As some will involve longer periods of close contact than others...perhaps just unisex crew-cuts for all?...I imagine the government will publish that guidance when we also get the update of what is acceptable pub grub...fingers crossed the scotch egg still makes the cut....

He's already said they're not repeating the food in pubs debacle..

I think it is a sensible roadmap, allowing time to measure the impacts of each stage on the R number. This is the only way to go if we are not to repeat the mistakes of last year. It is not about stopping all deaths either. It is about getting things to a manageable level with a reopened economy. The monitoring for mutations will be ongoing just as is the case with influenza.


Repairing the economic and mental health impacts however is going to be a different challenge. And that is where normal party politics will return, over who bears the true burden of the borrowing etc etc.

The whole concept and messaging is bent out of shape.

We live in one of the free-est societies in the world but somehow it?s being painted that we?re not free - because some of us adhered to pandemic regulations.

Tbh - the Govt has little to make slogans out of but this distraction (and momentary punch-the-air populist opportunity) really does take the biscuit.

Over a year ago this thread mentions Australia and NZ pursuing an elimination policy - and they still are.


Another short sharp lockdown in Sydney starts after cases went up to 44. They're still going for a total elimination policy. This totally conflicts with our policy and shows the world has no consistent policy.

Elimination will only work whilst they are in lockdown. The minute they open a window??


Billions of years of evolutions have taught us that elimination doesn?t work. Even polio is no longer eradicated (which is what a lot of folks say when told to explain their understanding of ?eradication?.


It is more realistic to go for a ?manageable? policy.

    • I'd be tempted to put up some sort of fence  to delineate the area and see what happens. Probably nothing.
    • Poundland have been there just over two years. 
    • Has anybody here bought some land from the council to become part of their garden? There are helpful guidelines on the Southwark website here including a PDF with associated costs, however the "valuation" element has absolutely no guidelines. It could be £500 or £50,000. You will already have spent £1000 on the process before finding out what they will charge you for the land - which would certainly be frustrating if it's not affordable for you. The land in question is a tiny patch immediately attached to the front of my property, approx 4 meters wide x 1 meter long. Would like to put a fence there to separate from the pavement and allow some privacy, keep the bins more tidy. The land is of no value to anybody else and is neglected currently - the council seems to have to stopped maintaining this area between the pavement and the houses on our street.
    • I suppose wind could have blown rubbish out of bins down into the pond. But I also counted three footballs and some smaller balls. Regrettably, there is also what seems to be a large dead carp or waterfowl, hard to tell at distance. I just hope the water quality is okay. I am not clear to what extent the pond is managed.
