Unprecedented times ahead eh Shoddy? As a business man (some would disagree) I’d rather

Boris took the same approach as Macron regarding forcing businesses to close. It might seem draconian but at least it gives precise guidance to the business owners and the public. But the key thing that won’t happen under Boris’s vague guidance is that businesses in the UK probably won’t be covered under their insurances for loss of earnings.Whereas in France it appears that Macron has offered huge financial assistance, rent and mortgage breaks and most importantly because the businesses have be forced to close they should be able to claim on their insurance.
