I agree there should have been a lot more leadership from the government over mask wearing as the whole let the people decide policy has led to most people not wearing them (I estimate 40% of people wearing them on a packed train going to the football yesterday, although interestingly Brighton...

Being scared of Covid is far from irrational and if someone feels safer wearing a mask when walking their dog then leave them to it and allow them to return to normal at their own pace.

I don't think that will happen south of the border unless the school's themselves mutiny an do it.
