They missed out the all important gardening centres so your gardener can get supplies.

Who am I to say you're wrong
Garden centres are popular across the class divide. I am sure there are a lot of peeps who grow their own veg glad to get plug plants.
Well duh.. I had noticed that a lot of people have gardens. It was a joke on a joke thread.

Jonathan Van-Tam: UK quarantined arrivals from '30th Feb'
We've all been finding it hard to keep track of time lately, and Jonathan Van-Tam is apparently no different.

Yes, the unedited version makes it clear that this man is no idiot, but it's still not great. He's fumbling about as he's trying desperately (it seems) not to say what he actually thinks, whilst giving an answer that doesn't demolish his integrity.
I wouldn't fancy it (and, happily, don't have to). But he probably shouldn't have agreed to the interview. There's no way to come out of that usefully or well.

Wouldn't be the first scientist, won't be the last, to not be the smoothest, charismatic, televisually adroit PUS communicator.
Or fishing for words they hope least likely to be misrepresented?
Should everyone who goes on tv, be very self confident, good at arguing black is white and never admit to not knowing something?
If that's the case, we will only ever get people with certain personality traits.
Uncertainty and unkowns are a factor with covid-19.

No, absolutely not. But what screamed out at me was that he seemed to think and want to say "you're right, we massively fucked up" but was doing his level best to find a way not to deny that, whilst also not destroying his career (understandable) or making himself the focus of massive scrutiny, or a patsy for something that probably wasn't his fault in the main. That's a really hard position to put yourself in. It made him look, probably unfairly, evasive (and of course in the edit designed to do so, like a total fool). I hold my hands up to falling for the first edit.
I may well be projecting as I often find answering people's questions (in ordinary situations) problematic, as 5 million thoughts compete for dominance over what could or should come out of my mouth.

This is true - someone once took a shit on the shopfloor at the Our Price I worked at - right out in public, in the soul/dance section.
Someone also once flung a tissue-wrapped turd on the counter. And we had to boost a wanker from the Taschen erotica section - didn't want to touch him, so broomed him out, Black Books style
