How can Jersey be so far ahead of us ?

[J R Hartley]

A question for everyone who thinks the measures have been a waste of time:

Do you not think we’ve had a lot more deaths than usual?

Do you not think these deaths are directly or indirectly related to covid-19?

Do you not think everyone is worried about the effects on the economy?

Do you not think we would have had a lot more deaths if we hadn’t had those measures in place?

I don’t think the measures have been a waste of time I just think we cannot continue paying people 80% to sit on their arse doing jack shit. I hope it’s not extended to end of July and that there is a different furlough strategy from July 1st and not a free for all that it is now.

I can't see the Government retaining this scheme for much longer.
