UnitedCity express frustration at postponement of lockdown easing

A UnitedCity respondeu ao último anúncio do governo em torno das restrições da Covid que, como você sabe, estão tendo um efeito profundo nas empresas da cidade.

UnitedCity, do que Downtown in Business, executivo -chefe e presidente do grupo, Frank McKenna é um membro fundador, respondeu aos mais recentes do governo. Leia:
 
The statement reads:
 
= “Estamos, mais uma vez, profundamente decepcionados com uma abordagem do vírus que parece ser cada vez mais inconsistente e incoerente. Estratégia e moveu os postes mais uma vez. de novo. Isso é irrealista e inaceitável. cenoura pendurada. On. Mais tarde nesta semana, para ver como podemos cooperar e receber uma mensagem o mais forte possível para o governo sobre o impacto que os bloqueios e restrições contínuos estão tendo na economia. Enquanto isso, se você precisar de algum conselho ou suporte, entre em contato conosco em
 
“Having pushed out a strong message that vaccinations, along with a strong testing regime, would save our Summer, Boris Johnson and his colleagues have now seemingly abandoned that strategy, and moved the goalposts once again.
 
“We accept that infection rates, as was inevitable, have increased. However, hospitalisations and coronavirus deaths are, thankfully, dramatically reduced.
 
“Ministers now appear to be moving to a position where they want to eradicate COVID completely before allowing the country to open up normally once again. That is both unrealistic and unacceptable.
 
“This latest announcement will be catastrophic for many businesses, and for a good number of them this will be the final nail in the coffin. And, as much as the Prime Minister has suggested he is “confident” that the latest delay will end on 19th July, there will be understandable scepticism about his latest dangled carrot.
 
“Beyond the impact that restrictions and lockdowns are having on Manchester’s economy and business community, there is a ticking timebomb of mental health issues, a huge backlog of operations and diagnosis for critical illnesses, including cancer, and we know that the impact on young peoples’ education has been massively impacted.
 
“This cannot go on. As former PM Theresa  May said recently, it is incomprehensible that one of  the most heavily vaccinated countries in the world continues to refuse to give its citizens the freedoms that those vaccinations were supposed to guarantee.”
 
We are determined to continue to lobby on behalf of our city and our business community, and we will be talking to senior business leaders from London, Birmingham, and Liverpool later this week to see how we can co-operate and get as strong a message as possible to government about the impact continuous lockdowns and restrictions are having on the economy.
 
As soon as guidance allows, we will be calling a meeting of UC members – not only to discuss the long awaited recovery plan, to have a well-earned glass of something cold too.
