It upended our social lives, changed our Shopping Habits and impacted how and where we could travel. I think this is by far the biggest crisis we have ever faced and clearly requires us to take very quick and deep action. For the country, it led to the biggest economic slump in a generation causing thousands of people to lose their jobs across the uk.
