PM: “I want to thank the people of this country for the grit and guts they’ve shown.”

PM: “Let me say to UK business...I understand your impatience, I share your anxiety. I know without our private sector...there will be no economy to speak of. No cash to pay for public services, no way to pay for our NHS...and yet we must also understand the risk of a 2nd spike.”

PM: “I ask you to contain your impatience because I believe now we are coming to the end to the first phase of this conflict.”

Notable PM talking of “refining” the social restrictions rather than scaling them down.
