HOORAY for the Chancellor Rishi Sunak - I don’t think I’ve ever said that about a Tory MP.

He has ensured that pubs like the Crowns & Sceptre and the Prince Albert can/must close and that therefore Rodda Thomas and Lotte Lyster Connolly, and all other public house landlords/landladies, can claim insurance which will enable them to survive the horrid coronavirus pandemic.

Good luck to all of them and to the rest of us as we can no longer spend time with our friends an some family.
