There's no demand to be open so why bother wasting money for the 15 people who will come in all day.
What about the home deliveries that have already been booked? The thousands of elderly, vulnerable or isolated people who now have to rebook their slots...
Tesco etc are shut the whole day, is everybody watching the funeral on repeat when its done?
Schools are closed on Monday as a "mark of respect", I'm sure that's what the Queen would have wanted - children missing out on their education and, in the case of those in poverty, their dinner too.
