What did he say? Only managed to see a bit, but he was making it clear further draconian measures would be taken if the public didn't follow the strong advice being given to them.

Re: Covid-19
Another appalling press conference from Johnson. He's seriously just said it's ok for people to still go out.
This is the most out of his depth, irresponsible prime minister we've ever had, right at the worst time.

Genuinely can't see Dyche doing that. Can you? Mee wasn't leaving anyway.
Pretty sure Gibson will have come knowing he had a fight on his hands to get in the team. Always seemed a decent lad like that, prior to this.
