Looks like the government is going to say that foreign holidays are off and that domestic travel should revert to essential only, but perhaps not the ‘avoid public transport’ message last time around

Extremely disappointing decision for 5 million railcard holders not to get an extension or discount on renewal.
No-one should be unfairly out of pocket for doing the right thing and staying at home.
We're really disappointed by this decision. We wanted to see @_Railcards extended or a discount on renewal offered for those cardholders who did as the government asked and avoided travel earlier this year.
ALT Anthony Smith chief executive of Transport Focus says: Passengers bought railcards in good faith and will be disappointed by the decision not to extend them or offer a discount on renewal

Some good news in trying times. 💪 #raceaccrosstheworld
