No, it signals that after 40 years of Thatcherism we live in an atomised society wherein planning, organisation and collectivism are considered anathema according to the dominant cultural values. This is a govt not of the affairs of the people but the affairs of the economy.
As far as I can see no one is following Government guidance and individuals and institutions are all taking their own initiatives to reduce risk. Is this a good thing? Or does it signal that there is no trust in this Government?

We have to be honest. Capitalism is not just an economic system it's a value system, chief among which are selfishness, greed and the cult of the individual. The chaotic scene in this supermarket mirrors the chaos of an economic and value system that's reduced us to human dust.

God gifted Great Britain with being an island with no land borders. God gifted us with ‘5 weeks’ advance notice of Covid-19. What did the government do? Nothing but employ ‘weirdo’ eugenicists and likely snort more cocaine.

FOLLOW THE MONEY... This government will not ‘instruct’ pubs,clubs,theatres and venues to close, because their mates (and probably they themselves) who are in Lloyd’s underwrite insurance losses - if they only ‘advise’ they can’t be held legally responsible to settle claims

When this is all over, remember how landlords behaved - and let's build a society without them.

Not sure why TV shows give that insufferable old bigot, Stanley Johnson a platform. The Johnsons are predators, sucking on the teat of society with ugly talk fashioned in a home where eugenics appears to have been light table conversation. Horrid clan, too much media exposure.

Rishi Sunak and Boris Johnson now find themselves with a simple choice. They can either be traitors to their class or traitors to the British people. Whether enthusiastic socialists or reluctant ones, socialists they must be if this crisis is to be met with sufficient measures.

And this man is our Chief Scientist . What a state the country is in .
Sir Patrick Vallance says 20,000 deaths or below 'would be a good outcome'. I tend to disagree, agree on his assessment that that's pretty horrible. 20,000 lost lives with loved ones left behind means no community will be left untouched #COVID2019 news.sky.com/story/coronavir… @BWDDPH

We have been let down by insufficient testing from 6 weeks ago . WHO Director Feneral says Test, Test , Test. Our PM, CMO and Chief Scientist seem to have been asleep at the wheel.
Many of today's newly recorded cases of #covid19 are in just two clusters: Hampshire and London. What is being done to isolate and eliminate these clusters? Why are we not following China's successful strategies that have almost completely eliminated the virus from China?
