I'm capable of seeing his greater point without getting hung up in the details of his statistics. He's not writing a philosophy essay he's making an emotional video on social media while his business is collapsing due to no fault of his own.

You might not like the guy or whatever but a huge section of our economy, and one which Glasgow in particular depends on massively, is being told to essentially file for bankruptcy for the common good. That is while the universities are allowed to cram 12 students into a dorm, while social distancing is being flaunted left right and center, and school kids are all back in order, basically, to provide childcare for working parents, who are supposed to go into their offices.

Pubs, meanwhile are heavily regulated spaces which have invested loads of money into just trying to stay afloat, yet it's not enough. You're probably safer in a pub than most anywhere.

Lots of businesses are doing very nicely out of this, from home delivery services to the average sole trader who bought an Audi with his bounce back loan, to the billions defrauded out of CJRS. Not to mention the average punters who are fatigued to the point of not caring any more about the whole situtation.
