I am going to be a bit provocative here.
There are reports that many workers in the U.K. Are too scared to go back to work...that it is too soon to lift the restrictions of the lockdown.....and it has been dubbed 'coronaphobia'....but is it that or is it a lot of 'lazyitis'.

Many folk have said, when surveyed, that they have more money in their pockets since the lockdown.
Well of course they will have, won't they.
If theynare furloughed then they are getting 80% of their pay from the tax payer.
They may even have organised for a mortgage holiday.....and a refund on their car insurance too....and of course there is less opportunity to spend any of this money.
The weather has been kind and who wouldn't want to be on a sun lounger in the back garden...or sunning their bum on a beach(if you live by the seaside)

I am sure that many of the front line workers...the nurses, the firemen, the shop workers would happily swap places.

So do you think it is time to shake off the sloth and get the UK moving again?
Should the chancellor pare down the cash he is throwing around?
Don' t these folk realise that we will all be paying this money back for decades to come?
