The best part of 50 police injured in London over the weekend, they have my support.

With packed beach resorts (when it was sunny) and riots, Liverpool fans will celebrate en masse another trophy. Can't see anything stopping it. By then far more of lockdown would've come to end anyway.

Similarly, Spanish police and Guardia Civil famously take no prisoners, well, they do: Screaming female jogger who broke lockdown: https://en.as.com/en/2020/03/21/videos/1584804866_376286.html Martial arts comes in handy in apprehending two people breaking lockdown...

At Sainsbury’s throughout, couples enter separately, once inside joining up. Crafty sods.

Sainsbury’s West Hove and Waitrose do ... early doors in lockdown, staff on the doors insisted that only one of us enter the store ... we genuinely hadn’t realised about their rule until there.

Shirley supermarkets can continue the one adult rule? Which in fairness was often then ignored, sly couples then meeting up once through the door.

I get your point, I can see that, but I think of it in reverse that our soft touch lockdown was the most that the government and public health scientists thought we’d stomach. The heavy Spanish and Italian strategy was enforced by a huge presence of (armed) police, with Spanish augmenting that...

Going by the greatly increased traffic on the roads of Brighton and Hove this afternoon, despite no school runs, lockdown is truly over. I'd forgotten how tedious it was stuck in traffic jams and being behind someone driving at one third of the speed limit. Not just an English problem, under...

40 year olds are more likely to be their great grandparents, at 12 years per generation.

Obviously bunched up for the helicopter landing, but it’s been mobbed for several weekends now, always covered on the news. I’ve been there when it was uncrowded, I didn’t realise that it was now a major sunbathing beach.

This. Throughout lockdown. Bored apparently, so they went in droves to the supermarket every day. I seldom saw an over 65 with a mask on ….. invincible syndrome. It was inevitable, for the same reason, that they'd also dominate garden centres and 'win' the race to council recycling centre...

I hope the fella makes a full recovery. A salient story, telling us imho that total social distancing of the old and vulnerable, may not advisable from now on and in any future waves.

2 pints for £5 on Brighton beach, bringing relief to those wanting a beer away from home. https://www.theargus.co.uk/news/18454647.two-fiver-nightclub-selling-beer-brighton-beach/

Totally agree with you. As does the law and epidemiologists. And you’re completely right that many second home owners flocked to their second homes just before or after lockdown was announced. Clients based in wealthy parts of London, said that all their associates with second homes in the...

I know what you mean, but this was discussed by epidemiologists (non-Government) very early on, plus the police were singing from the same hymn sheet. They simply didn’t not want numbers moving between areas, the virus would spread further and quicker as a result, everyone says “but I just went...

The journeys by the family to their second home are not a reasonable excuse and are illegal. People saying that they never met anyone, was dismissed at the very beginning of lockdown. The authorities simply don’t want numbers travelling between areas.

Sky News covered this just then. It ended up being a unique mix of the left (and far right who turned up), both against what they see as big government infringing of liberties with lockdown and social distancing...

A few voices are starting to say that in media interviews, that if we'd locked down a week or two earlier, it would've started to collapse that much earlier. Their overriding point is that if 100% of people who could have socially distanced, had done, that would've made a huge differences to...

At Withdean Stadium the council have just set up an array of recycling bins. Already there are dozens of used latex gloves and baby/disinfectant wipes just thrown on the floor. What a twa*ttish thing to do - recycle with gloves on, then litter.

The families completely ignoring it in our road, with the elderly grandparents round, and walks with their mates are not the archetypal fck the police and rules types. Green Party posters in their windows at elections, one family are key members or the local community associate, the opposite of...
