That's just peachy isn't it. Anyone over 60 who is seriously ill "Sorry mate but you'll just have to die. Sorry for any inconvenience". But never mind there's plenty of people having a lovely time outside in the English sunshine, down the market etc. Happy days.

Just been to Tesco to get the last bits of forgotten about the other day so that I don’t have to go anywhere to mix with others for a good week, maybe even two weeks now.

I wore a mask and latex gloves... I got a lot of funny looks, I saw people tapping each other saying “look at him”, a couple of people were laughing at me, and the fella on the check out said “I’ve heard those masks don’t work”!

I said to him; “even if it doesn’t stop me breathing it in, it reduces the chances that I’ve just breathed it all over your fruit+veg and over you while I’m talking to you!” I could see on his face he knew exactly what I meant and hopefully that will make a bigger impression on him than the thousands who think this is a joke and in some cases a jolly-up!

I saw one other person with a face mask on. He gave me a nod! Haha

But the masses are not getting this. From my mini-experiment this afternoon I’d say I got at least a funny look from about 75% of the people I walked past. Without even saying owt to me I could see in their faces what they were thinking (“haha come on you fool, think you’re taking it a bit seriously aren’t you?”)

It's staggering the number of educated...people who are basically acting as if there isn't any need for serious levels of social distancing. The world is in trouble

Its something they can't get their head around, they have never had to do it before. Its only when people they know start dropping it will hit home.

Just out of interest, does the government actually have the power to force people to stay at home? I only ask as I heard earlier that they were putting a bill through parliament tomorrow granting them extra powers to take emergency measures and wondered if they needed that to pass before they enforce a full lockdown.

They need something because relying on people to not be selfish, stupid cunts is definitely a non starter.

been playing on my mind for ages,bit lets say it was,,if a counrty was mad enought to start this off you would think they would have designed both the virus and the cure as a back up just incase

And a virus that only kills 1% ish of the people infected, is a pretty crap virus, all things considered. If it was a weapon, they could have done a lot better than this.

It's a fucking ludicrous suggestion from people who normally wear tin foil as a hat.

They sure did to some tune! I have friends in Tenerife they are confined to home. Walk the dog, one person can go to a supermarket/chemist, empty the bins and that's it. No driving or going for a walk. Most live in apartments so must be going stir crazy and they've just extended it another two weeks.

Are you sure you didn’t put it on back to front?

I know I need fresh air so I will go to a well know beauty spot for a walk or I could just go for a walk round my local rec.. I didnt realise just how thick and selfish most people in England are.

So many people arent getting it we need to stay apart

I don’t think I’ve ever felt so disappointed in my fellow countrymen. I’m developing a hatred similar to Rag/Cult levels towards all these idiots.
