Thank you @DavidSillitoBBC excellent piece which articulated the situation in the way I hoped it would be. Succinct and to the point. @RishiSunak@BorisJohnson#WeMakeEvents need to keep paying the bills until we can earn our keep. 3 mths? 6 mths? Not asking for crowds just help
Well done Leeds despite restrictions #WeMakeEvents@Events_Leeds a valuable small part of a fine national effort. Looking forward to all your future events in the city @LeedsCC_News when it’s safe to do so (assuming we are all still here to make them happen).
@Events_Leeds@itvcalendar@BBCLookNorth@BorisJohnson@RishiSunak The point of this is that for very good reason we can’t provide services and so gain income for another 3-6 months after all schemes stop. If the airlines were grounded for this time we’d certainly know about it
