I think outlawing balaclavas and face coverings - other than surgical masks, on public transport would be a good thing.

That doesn't make sense, if your banning balaclavas and face coverings but allow face masks sure they can just wear a face mask a black one or any colour, it's like going in a 360° turn.

FWIW, my local spar is not opening in the morning and it'll play it by ear if it opens in the afternoon...

The Govt wants the country to shut down tomorrow and the newspapers are saying it'll one of the worst storms in our history!  I'd say any employer is risking a claim if they force their staff to go to work and there's a crash or work accident due to high winds?

I was down in Cork in the Prius during storm Barra a few years ago and they closed most of the petrol stations.I found an unmanned one eventually after a detour but if you're going to be working fill up your tanks tonight just in case.

Would you allow two hoodies wearing balaclavas into your place of business?

Wearing a balaclava during the troubles attracted a prison sentence. Wearing one now is only used for nefarious reasons.
