Don't you sell TV's which is illegally not allowed to happen right now? So why would you be classed as a keyworker

Weren’t you worrying about having not having WiFi for a day during first lockdown?

There will be educational programmes on BBC during lockdown for those with no access to laptops

I'm not sure about the time, I think its 8pm again though.

I shall perch myself at my window and not clap, I shall just bask in the glory of my fellow hero's, and probably cry the first night as the noise filters in, the noise that makes you gain the strength to get up again in the morning and soldier on all through this for the benefit off others

But the tears for others will stop as the noise grows.

Cauae that's the noise of togetherness.

Why are you being rude?

So many people would suffer dramatically without entertainment if furloughed and nothing to do to entertain themselves... Also people with young kids rely on the tv for the kids to watch to get a break from them 24/7... I don’t understand your logic at all, at a time where people are stuck at home it can definitely be considered essential. The fact you don’t have a job and you are willing to berate others for sticking their neck out and putting themselves in danger to help others and protect their mental health during the time of the pandemic is pretty gross

A toilet isn’t essential either really? We still need these services. Like Cherie Mentioned Adam was complaint about his WiFi at the beginning of lockdown, I bet he’d be the first to ring up the non essential WiFi company to sort it out rather than sit and do nothing for 3 months (he’s not working it’s not essential he has internet).

A working tv could be considered essential for domestic abuse victims, single parent household families that have young children, and people furloughed and it able to work and have literally nothing to do to stay at home. Also a working TV could prevent people from mixing households, and going out, because it’ll keep them indoors.

I think parm deserves a bit of respect

Not only that, but Parms employer has deemed he is to work, if he wants paying he HAS to work. Furlough doesn't appear to be an option

I do work and the Internet is essential to my work plus I don't have the option to not work, we have to stay open regardless

yes we do still need those services, as long as those people who do the work wear their masks, socially distance (the people who need those services also need to pay attention to distancing ofc)

yes its kinda ''essential'' for people mentally, and most entertainment shows have been good for people's morale too

i get your point
