    If so, the chances of a football crowd assembling are zero.
    Gove said that the hosptality sector (pubs, restaurants etc) will be among the last to reopen. That caused a spokesman for Truman's Brewery in London to offer the Christmas quote. Possibly as a worst case scenario and the papers seem to have run with it...... Personally I wait until I have verifiable proof or knowledge.

    I know part of tomorrow's Dutch government easing through personal knowlegde. I will PM my "knowledge" to rA and he can confirm it tomorrow.

    Whether it does or doesn't, I tend to agree with it. Its anti competitive, not level playing field. However it cannot be an outright embargo, it has to be balanced against the size of the deferral - not quite sure how, but maybe escrow the deferred wages somehow
