Lockdown
Boris Johnson made a long-awaited
speech last night which I think left many more confused than anything,
brilliantly summed up by Matt Lucas (below).
There
was a noticeable increase in traffic on the roads today and some restaurants /
coffee chains have started sending out notifications that they will slowly
start to re-open.
But
can we go back to "normal"? What is normal anymore?
Normal is going to be facemasks for some time that's for certain - and you
can't really sip a latte out of one of those.
And
I think there is understandable fear - we have been separated for 7
weeks. That's a long time. That's long enough for a new normal to
become imbedded. Do I want to run into a room full of people?
No. Do I want to get on the tube? No. Do I want to go and get
that latte? I'm really not sure.
So
while I think some people will bounce back gang-ho into "normal"
life, I think it will take a lot longer for most.
