The first paragraph of dryclean's statement here is a Corker!!🤣🤣

But you can't explain why?
Off course he cant, like the forums idiot  he doesn't realise that social distancing also means not touching things that others could touch after or before you.

Question for Griff.

With the exception of the organisations covered above in the section on closing certain businesses and venues, the government has not required any other businesses to close - indeed it is important for business to carry on.

The bit in red.

The businesses which the government has closed are bars, restaurants, "non-essential shops" etc. - yes?
How do they "remain open" by your definition?

The bit in purple.

The "other businesses" are not required to close.
How do they "remain open" by your definition?

What is the difference in operation between businesses required to close by the government and businesses not required to close?

It's a game of three halves!

The way I see it atm is the 5% who will lose out are the directors and people who earn over £50k. On one hand I think the government will look after us and on the other I think they won’t. They have thrown money all over the shop though so I’m inclined to think they’re going to bail us all out and have us pay it back through taxes when we’re on the other side. I do have a niggling suspicion that they will weasel out of it for us. They’re Tories, Tories don’t splash the cash normally. Yes I know it’s not normal circumstances.

I think the government really need to clarify who can travel to work. We are in a unique position where our work involves travel to work and having to work in different places. I’m trying to think of how many trades are similar to us...gardeners, mobile car valeters any more? I just googled mobile car valeting forums to see if they were working/staying home but I didn’t find anything.
Why do so many find the simplest of things so hard to understand,  the virus spreads from person to person by contact which is why we are using social distancing to slow it down.
Therefore if you are able to practice social distancing while working you can work, it couldn't be any clearer.

Where in my post did I say it didn’t spread?

I put surgical gloves on when I leave the house and change them at each job so about 4 times a day 😂😂,I’m not looking forward to tomorrow it’s shopping day the riskiest day of the weekend.
Mind you we’ve had proper masks delivered today the ones with the filters in so we will be a bit more relaxed when we go shopping.

It doesn't have to spread by person to person contact!
Plenty have had plenty to say about this over the past few weeks and they clearly don't know what they are talking about.
Correct. A lot here must think some other countries are spreading disenfectant over their streets for a laugh. And of course, that could be a sideline to offer from someone who does have all the softwashing gear, get out there, disinfect................ Wonga.........
Name me one person on this forum who has said that it can only be spread by person to person contact ? when it comes to continuing to work Griff cant give a sensible answer as to why we shouldn't so resorts to his usual wibble to hide that fact.

Don't worry, according to Griff getting the virus from contact with other people is fake news.

FAKE NEWS!
Stop getting it wrong. It can be spread via objects and surfaces.

Using social distancing to slow down the spread of the virus is fake news, you live and learn.

My business is open but I'm not working. Have I closed, temporarily? Maybe. But I haven't closed my business and neither has my old local. It's not open but it's not closed.
But the open/closed thing is to keep people 'in work' even though they might not be working.
We know why window cleaners and gardeners are allowed to work but pubs are 'closed'. It's to do with the numbers [social gatherings) and social distancing, surely?

To summarise, Malc; their doors are closed and we don't have any to close. Apart from the likes of that capitalist Soupy.

When it was first mentioned it was almost in brackets as long as they work on there own,we can’t see why it would be a problem as long as they keep to the 2 meter rule.

I can name at least person that is so confident in his social distancing because it includes not touching things that others could touch before or after him.
