    A number (hard to tell how many) of workers at an Amazon facility on Staten Island, NY, have staged a walkout. One of the organisers is streaming it live here: https://www.facebook.com/watch/live/?v=204556864313624&ref=watch_permalink

    If you think sub-$20 WTI is bad, in Texas the WTI Midland contract just slipped below $7 a barrel (according to Eikon).

    Total collapse underway.

    A barrel of oil from the shale heartlands of America now costs less than a pint in London. And this isn't some niche grade.

    “Non-essential” is not a term in the Regulations.

    Regulation 6 allows us to obtain “basic necessities”, which specifically “includes food”. Types of food are not prescribed or proscribed.

    Schedule 2 allows “food retailers” to remain open. Again, types of food are not specified. https://twitter.com/BBCNews/status/1244559414591356928

    I think in economics they call this the free rider problem. https://twitter.com/paulkrugman/status/1244224063700176897
