Including: "hotels, hostels, bed and breakfasts, campsites, caravan parks, and boarding houses for commercial/leisure use (excluding permanent residents and key workers)." So I guess folk will be turfed out in the morning whether they have anywhere to go or not. It just says 'work' in there. Other things say key workers. I'm guessing more clarification (again) on the way... With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game.

I've not seen anything to suggest hotels, guest houses, etc. have to shut. I know some are however, but is it to be enforced? Are people supposed to head home immediately? Our son is in Leamington - as he was working in a spoons until Saturday (cleaning, last customers were Friday) so the plan was for him and his last remaining house mate to sit it out a week/10 days then early next week (which coincides with an end of month) she would head back to Liverpool and him home to us - leaving all there gear in another set of mates house until the end of summer when they have next years house booked from - that would save a few months rent and get him back with us (where he would have a better internet connection for uni work) Now not sure what is happening Link to post Share on other sites

JohnM 7,530 Posted March 23, 2020 Report Share Posted March 23, 2020 I'm sure there will be things put in place for the self employed. Should have been done earlier and given higher priority, of course. However, the number of initiatives already taken in a very short period of time is huge and it'll take a huge admin exercise to get all of those up and running. I thought they might have introduced help for self employed today but the new isolation rules etc have had to be brought in. Maybe tomorrow.

It is with heavy heart that we have closed the Pontefract Food Bank immediately. Following the guidance of no more than two gathering we would be unable to operate. We will keep the situation under review but as Trustees we have responsibilities to clients and volunteers to operate safely. 1 4 Please view my photos. http://www.hughesphoto.co.uk/ Little Nook Farm - Caravan Club Certificated Location in the heart of the Pennines overlooking Hebden Bridge and the Calder Valley. http://www.facebook.com/LittleNookFarm Little Nook Cottage - 2-bed self-catering cottage in the heart of the Pennines overlooking Hebden Bridge and the Calder Valley.
