Non-essential shops can re-open from mid June - Fulham Fallout - 05-26-2020
With holidays off the agenda for this summer and no evenings out on the horizon either, I really can’t see the demand will be there for people to flock to the shops once re-opened.

I think summer holidays will be on the agenda. I wouldn't be comfortable taking a flight anywhere but would consider a road trip to France or Italy by car. Whether I could remortgage the house to fund a villa with pool for two weeks is perhaps another thing!

I know several women that will flock to practically any shops once they're open. It's like a drug to them.

But isn’t part of that shopping experience to go and have lunch or a coffee afterwards?

28 day self isolation if you want to go to France
14 days isolation on arrival in France
14 days isolation upon return to the UK
I guess no one will be going on a booze cruise to France this summer!!

That’s as of today though. Come end of July that’ll probably be a different story, especially with countries opening borders on a seemingly daily basis.

If this happens (and it could) there will be mass panic.

Without turning this into a political thread, it’ll have to be more egg on face to reverse a decision implemented to prevent a second wave. Everyone else did it in an attempt to reduce the first wave.
Greece is off the map for this summer for UK tourists.

France have said they're "ready" to enter a reciprocal arrangement with the UK regarding quarantine. Its the UK that are current insisting on it (despite previously agreeing not to have one....). We've certainly seen tourists coming back here in no small numbers over the recent public holiday.

If the weather's like this in August I'd be more than happy to!
