But have we seen breakdowns in law and order yet? We're not eve in lockdown yet!
No, but it's early days. The panic buying will most negatively affect the weakest in society, so you'll probably start to see frail old people dying of malnutrition or being crushed in supermarket stampedes soon.
Err, many critics of the Tories like to claim that "10 years of austerity" has killed hundreds of thousands in the UK. And that level of austerity is likely to be dwarfed as a result of this malarky.
even if it is hundreds of thousands, it has been spread out... if we do nothing and this kills 250k in a fairly short space of time then the NHS will break and where does that leave us long term.
Also, your beloved Boris wouldn't get a vote in 4 yrs if he did nothing

I think that financial ship may have already sailed tbh, not sure we'll get the green light to all go back to normal anytime soon. We're looking at a world recession (again) maybe we won't come back from this one.
Glad I'm not part of the government, the economy v peoples lives, damned if you do, damned if you don't.
Yes. There'll be spikes in suicides, violent crimes and murders, of course. There always are.
