I suspect food distribution is going to become an issue. We are advised to stay at home and self-isolate... some have to because they have increased vulnerability due to underlying health conditions.
Simultaneously, there are no delivery slots (or click and collect slots) available on most UK supermarkets for a month.... to add to this, the supermarkets are rationing supplies because of the morons buying 20 loaves of bread. So you can only buy 2 tins of soup (not 4) and this has to last you a month because there are no deliveries.
I have been monitoring 4 major supermarket chains over the past 5 days (I'm bored) and I am not exaggerating. There may be some areas that are slightly better, but in my part of the world, not far from London, you simply cannot arrange for a home delivery.
And yet.... the distribution channels are robust.... there is plenty of food - arguably a surplus as restaurants are closing down.
We could all do with losing a few pound, but this feels the wrong time to get thin! :)
