I thought he was trying to sound like Churchill

What, pissed and chronically depressed?

He didn't really tell us much we didn't already know. I thought there would be more of a 'lockdown'... Public transport restricted a little... People and shops on a proper curfew etc

Yes Notimeforaname I thought the same. DH (not a Leo fan) had predicted a few days previously that he would do a showboating speech on St Patrick's Day and I hate to agree with him but it seemed he was right! It was a pretty pointless speech IMO and was just a bit of grandstanding for future "reeling in the years" episodes Grin

That said, if this thread is anything to go by, people took comfort from his speech so that's a positive, regardless what the cynic in me thinks!
