    Avoid travelling during rush hour! Are they on drugs? Unless the NHS are about to furlough everyone in Admin based roles. How do we avoid travelling in rush hour if our shift is 8am to 4.30pm or 8:30am to 5pm or 9am until 5:30 pm.

    How do healthcare workers in Outpatients go on?

    It's pathetic. This government has hamstrung the people it needs the most.

    Spot on. Plenty of jobs can be staggered but you need the infrastructure to manage it. Plus childcare if you're then eating into people's evenings. It is a massive ballache and glad I'm not involved in trying to sort it!!

    After reading this on the BBC website you would have to be very cautious travelling
    anywhere in London in case this maniac strikes again. If they ever catch him he
    deserves to be sent down for life.

    They will be seeing the continuing decrease of daily deaths and getting complacent, which risks a second wave.

    Let's be fair about the Transport in this country be it under this pandemic or not, we had Chris Graylin fookin hell the less said about him the better and then we get stook with Grant Chapps this guy doe's not known his own name in the 2001 and 2005 general elections he called himself Grant V Chapps despite not having a middle name on his birth or marriage certificate and then while serving as an M.P. took a second job "Get rich quick schemes" and calling himself Michael Green but on occasion's called himself Sabastian Fox. There's something not reight, how can anyone believe a word these bent politicians say.

    The transport situation went tits up many many years ago when a certain government at the time privatised the bus industry.for one..
    At one time certain industries/ factory's in barnsley would have their own transport system set up... For instance corahs gents Brooke motors numerous collieries would have a set amount of Tracky buses at they're factory to take their employees home after their shift finished thus saving their employees time and effort and lifting pressure of the normal service...
    This idea would work today and would go some way to avoid overcrowding on buses and to some extent reduce general over contact... although its near impossible to social distance
    Might be an idea for most places to keep their work force safe

    Totally agree. I won't be the only person who works at MidYorkshire Trust who lives in South Yorkshire. If they told all people travelling from South Yorkshire to say get to Meadowhall for 6:45am we're laying on a bus to Pinderfields it would be amazing.

    State ownership of assets and deploying them in a meaningful way to assist the people with work, allowing them to contribute to the economy?

    Bit Corbynesque, that...

    Capita put on a free shuttle bus for staff. It's a shame the NHS staff aren't looked after the same way.



    I hope the information we are seeing on the graph means you aren't as stretched as you will have been say a month ago.
