Changes to lockdown from Monday?

[Springhere]

I know this is pure speculation, but any predictions about changes from next Monday?

@Peppafrig exactly especially one the dm tends to run stories from

arf at Cornwall

please don't do that

What’s phase 1 please?

Those wanting specific stuff can om me .

@daisymay133 look up Ireland's plan that's where all of this top secret info is coming from.

I'm assuming that large gatherings such as the great north run etc won't be happening this year.

Running. Not necessarily. Larger gatherings are permitted at stage 5 but it depends on numbers.

Mn is just full of cynical twats these days isnt it ? Shame .

Priti Patel...are you going by the name Paws now? If you could just say this number for us: 947,360.....

Seriously, when can I market my house and get real estate agents in? I’m in the process of separating from my husband which happened just on lockdown and this enforced living together with no view to moving on is bloody miserable!

Running. Not necessarily. Larger gatherings are permitted at stage 5 but it depends on numbers.

Well there's 50+ thousand running it, then a further few thousand cheering on and not to mention the hundreds of volunteers helping out.

Although if parkrun can come back that will make me happy too.

Anyway I've PM'd you

I believe you Paws, thanks for your postings. It does seem as if the plan is to mirror Ireland. Wonder why the government were suggesting year 6, 10 and 12 would be restarting school in June.

@pawsforawhile i thought you was off for a name change and not returning to this thread after revealing so much top secret info. But here you are getting people to PM you still dragging this on.

@Peppafrig exactly !

This thread is hilarious !

There was a post doing the rounds on fb yesterday - a cut and paste of Ireland's five phase plan but claiming it was the English plan! I don't think we will copy Ireland, they are in a far better state than us. I think some of the outdoors restrictions may be eased (as in the Irish plan), but Monday seems very early to make any but the most minor changes.

Don't they need to do something tomorrow as it's the day the three weeks is up? Doing things from next Friday would be an odd choice given we've has Monday / Thursday changes. I thought we already knew that tomorrow was the announcement of a short extension and Sunday was the roadmap with some easings from Monday?

People can very easily make things look and sound official when they are just producing planning documents to work from.

And why they'd give certain people access early seems odd when they will have time to plan for it?

Sorry PAWS, but it is Irelands plan, as I have just said via PM either the government are being lazy and following Irelands word for word or you're looking at the wrong one or you're simply trolling everyone. Either way I dont care TBH. We'll find out on Sunday with a bit of hints before then. The post on Facebook doing the rounds says the following:

Government's roadmap to ease Covid-19 restrictions will be set out in 5 phases. These phases will be on 3 week review process, the current phases would commence on the following dates:

Now it may just be me, but the picture shared before had the world emoji on and the bit about schools was exactly the same wording. Also my PM mentioned KM and not miles.

Well peppa. I'm not going to that much notice now as your grammar belies you.

You was ?

I had posted a screenshot of the email I had been sent . I work in intel so I trust the information sent to me is accurate.

I have a full resume of how lockdown will be eased . I think lockdown has brought out the worst of this site . Bitchy, scornful, miserable old hags it appears.

Running

That's the email I have received . I work in intel so had not considered it may be public.

Running

Just see ? It may be Ireland's plan but it's almost certainly going to be ours also

@RunningNinja79 who knew people would come on to mumsnet and claim to have some top secret info all the time talking rubbish. I'm actually amazed anyone fell for this shit .

Peppa.

I work for government in an intel role so this email sent to me is classified.

The fact the Irish model is in the Internet and we appear to be copying it isn't a reason to be a complete bell end is it ?

Half of phase 1 is already allowed in the UK so certainly isn't going to be a blueprint of this, is it?

Yes I think some elements will be similar, and we may stay in a phase for much longer than these dates indicate if R looks like it is moving.

I'm in England and the documents sent to me are exactly the same as Ireland's by the look of it

www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/boris-johnson-drafts-5-step-21986668

So according to the mirror the plan goes until October. Must admit I dont read papers so no idea if the Mirror is trustworthy, but are any.

@pawsforawhile you know you have lost your argument when you need to stoop to belittling someone's grammar. I'm sorry my dyslexia annoyed you so much . I have no control over it unlike you and your control not to come on threads and lie about being privy to top secret info. Even going as far as blocking parts out to look like you were protecting info. Absolutely bat shit crazy.
