Would it be possible to alter the break at 7.55pm to 8 o'clock and last for 10 minutes whilst this Coronavirus is still going on so you don't lose to many chips if you want to go outside to show your support for our wonderful NHS

Agreed they are magnificent. Which is why it's such a shame to see a fantastic institution, that we are very lucky to have, so underfunded and asset stripped by the Tory government over the last 10 years.
And now its really coming back to bite us on our backsides, when we need our NHS the most.
This should be making people angry.

They’re still doing an incredible job
But as an organisation (as opposed to the individuals within it) it has serious shortcomings.
It is all too easy to blame Government for under-investment. But, given the massive investment it does receive, shouldn't the NHS be able to plan ahead?
It employs some 1.7million people, as of the last count I could find. It is the 5th largest employer in the world, and by far the biggest health employer. So why oh why are they unable to provide timely information, unlike the rest of the world?
We all have our own opinions
The first 2 words mean "be surprised by nothing"
The rest? "To be, rather than to seem"-motto of various schools, and I think 1 US state.
Have you forgotten your Latin? Surely you studied Cicero?
I did. And I still don't know what he is trying to say. Although I would always say "nihil" rather than "nil"
Outrageous.
I think rather than applauding the NHS the front line workers would prefer a donation, that we all stay inside and lay off the junk food, booze and cigs. This is all a bit to much virtue signalling for my liking and many applauding will be laid in the part over the long weekend.
For the record I have volunteered to do the home based outbound calling for the NHS to support vulnerable people.
I think rather than the applause, the NHS workers would prefer people to conform to the lockdown measures, to not turn up to supermarkets during their designated shopping hours, and not to attack or threaten them for their staff ID badges for 25% off Deliveroo or whatever.
