I think the problem is that the number of services has been reduced so everyone's piling onto the few that are still running. Not a good idea. Either flick the switch, as you say, or have a full service three-quarters empty.
The exact wording is
"Where parents do not live in the same household, children under 18 can be moved between their parents’ homes."

But I think it would be better to keep to a minimum

There is some hope for self employed. Attached is the latest coronavirus bill discussed yesterday. I hope this will be announced this evening.

Coronavirus: Sadiq Khan warns 'stop Tube travel or more will die'
Commuters at Mile End station were packed onto a Central Line train on Tuesday morning
London Underground commuters have been warned that if they do not stop packing into trains more people will die from coronavirus.
Mayor of London Sadiq Khan issued the alert after photos showed crowds in Tube carriages for a second morning running.
Mr Khan insisted the network was running for essential workers only.
A transport union called for police officers to be deployed at major stations to stop overcrowding.
More than 130 people have died in London from Covid-19 - a third of the whole of the UK.
But the trains were still crowded during rush hour despite Boris Johnson putting the UK on lockdown.
Mr Khan demanded employers enable their staff to work from home "unless it's absolutely necessary".
"Ignoring these rules means more lives lost," he warned.
Transport Secretary Grant Shapps said he spoke to Mr Khan about ensuring there is "enough space to be safe" on London Underground trains for those who must travel, and offered the support of his department.
Nurse Julia Harris, who commutes to work at Imperial College NHS Trust, said she had left earlier and changed her route to avoid crowds but still found services busy.
"Seats on the train all had at least one person so people needed to stand, and the District line was busy as well," she said.
"I still don't think things have improved as a large amount of people are commuting early in the morning.

Went for a walk this morning, and to do some shopping, everywhere was quiet. On the way back I passed my local pharmacy - sign in the window saying 'we now have hand sanitiser £3.99 a pop, max sale of 2' When this is all over there will need to be 'a reckoning' with the rip off buggers who are trying to capitalize on covid19 ( In fairness to the store it may be the manufactures / suppliers who are the culprits)

People are putting prices up. In the butchers last week and he said chicken prices have gone up but he is swallowing the cost.
For how much?

Did not say Chippy, as they are on reduced hours and closed till 2pm I could not find out.

The thing is chippy, most people cant work from home and they've reduced the public transport services. So people are cramming onto less trains. The buses are ok. I need to go on a lot of buses for my job but they're mostly empty, maybe 2-3 people on each one
I thought they had said that the people ignoring the 2 people max within 2 metres or a gathering like on the underground will get a warning followed by a fine/imprisonment from Thursday onwards as it will become law unless the house of lords try to delay it or have I read it wrong
More encouraging news from Italy, deaths and new infections have dropped for the third day in a row. If this isn't just a blip, they could be on top of it and approaching normality in 2 weeks or so. Assuming we are 2 weeks behind Italy, then logic would suggest that we will see things improve in 5 weeks or so. Let's hope so! Hope everyone is well - keep brewing!
Thanks, we have a 500ml pump bottle which SWMBO is sure cost less than £3 before the virus hit.
Why would anyone put themselves in that danger i would rather ring in sick and say i had symptoms than risk crowded trains like that, how can they close pubs and shops etc but let this go on?
Thanks for the info. thumb
