I am sticking by what I say.
Not everyone can go to work. We're in a lockdown, that means non-essential travel, including to work premises not considered essential and or even permitted to be open and there is many that should not be.
I mean even my employers, I've stated on here, I work in the healthcare sector, they have given me a letter headed statement with my full name on and ID on, FAO the Police, saying that I am an essential worker and should be allowed to travel to and from work. Hence the key word "Essential". I did ask why I needed this paperwork and I was told other colleagues in the country were facing problems with the police doing random spot checks on peoples purpose of travel.

They weren't looking out for non-essential workers. Even essential workers can be travelling for non-essential reasons. Being classed as being essential doesn't give them a free pass to do what they like.
Your post #1545 was in response to a post by "TheDaddy", which said "When was that rule changed, thought you could go to work as long as you couldn't do it from home". Your response started with "Only essential work:-" and then gave a list. You were saying only those essential workers could travel. That is incorrect.
