Best thing to do, switch off the TV, remove all news feeds from your PC and phone, and do what most do on a bank holiday, nothing.
Some businesses seem to have gone mad over this. The Center Parcs fiasco is a prime example of it and has ultimately ended up being a PR disaster for them as a company. I wonder who ever thought it'd be a good idea to ask guests to leave mid-break for 24 hours, find somewhere else to sleep, then come back and 'enjoy' the rest of their holiday.
People already being force-fed coverage of this around the clock and now they're being pushed into spending their day in a sombre fashion, because at this rate they'll not be able to do anything else. Add people being arrested for protesting to the list, and it's becoming more-and-more authoritarian by the day.
