			Who cares about 5 minutes, or if the clock was fast, slow or correct.
 The pettiness of some members is unbelieveable now.
 
 Are you really that desperate to attack someone who was observing the silence, move on.

		| The UK Government is yet to make a decision on whether to recommend face coverings, Downing Street said. 
 The experts on the Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies (Sage) submitted evidence to ministers on the issue last week.
 
 Ministers "are considering the advice they have been given and once a decision has been reached then we will announce it publicly", the Prime Minister's official spokesman said.
 |  The Government are not "following the science", they are choosing which science to follow...
 
(Which is what I would expect - they have to consider a lot of other aspects)

However, he's now taking a more measured approach.

			Ah well, if Sage has ruled it out I give it about a week before we all wear facemasks out and about.

I doubt 77% will support maintining the lockdown for another 12 months.
