He was unclear

I am seeing briefings that its meant to only be people whose work is essential for the fight v coronavirus BUT he actually said you can travel to work if it's essential to do so. ie, if it's essential you are at your workplace and you can't wfh.

We'll just have to wait to see what the legislation actually says on the matter. My employer has taken the view that the offices are now closed. Fuck knows what that means for some people's jobs.
