Common sense went down the toilet in this country years ago
In all. Aspects of society in part u can blame the the snow flake generation
There was some be** end from. Some council on the radio reminding LL that they have a duty if care to make sure tenants are self isolating
In multi occupancy houses
They tried to get this idiot council bloke to spell out exactly what Tf a land lord is supposed to do
Councillor was probably a remoaner and most likely a Labour party member
Tis the only explanation

Yes, was woman on the radio said she had heard that she could exercise outside for thirty minutes but how could she as it took longer than that to get to the park and back.
I said at the beginning I didn't think it would matter if I went for a drive and stayed on my own.
Then I realised I might have an accident or become ill causing emergency services to divert from virus business - or ignore me.
However, it seems plod has time to inspect people's gardens, parks and play with their drones on the Peak District.
They don't help themselves do they? Yet we are supposed to do what they say.

One chief constable said his officers would search shopping baskets for non essential items
So as to ascertain if your visit was necessary
He retracted this order after pressure from. Government who said if its in the shop u can buy it

For the most part, being a copper must be a thankless job. Especially on the beat.
Stands to reason then, those who do can't be the full shilling.
Indeed.
They did this some years ago when trying to claim that filming/photography in public places was illegal when no such law existed.
There is always an attempt for a 'power grab', and given the practice of secondary legislation the current emergency laws don't have an adequate sunset clause!
I think the police have a difficult job right now. I'm glad that they are clamping down, because the countries that have brought in the most stringent rules (eg. Australia, NZ) are the ones that have turned the tide and protected their citizens. If some flakes find there sensibilities offended then tough. Pussyfooting around will cost lives.
Unfortunately there will always be those in authority who are unable to act sensibly. It's the few clumsy plod, who may well be acting with the best intentions, that we will all hear about. The thousands who get it right won't be noted. Just glad that there's someone out there prepared to do this challenging work, and also glad I don't have to.
It's that old saying - "everyone else's job is easy, until you have to do it yourself".

I've seen more police patrolling in their cars, vans and helicopters during this lockdown period than ever before. I don't have any problems with police enforcing the law in any way they see fit, but I have to ask:
WHERE WERE THE POLICE WHEN WE NEEDED THEM BEFORE?
The streets of our towns and cities - especially Manchester, a crime-ridden, hell-on-earth - are lawless places where decent people are scared to walk for most of the time. This can all be credited to the police and governments not enforcing the law. Most of the population of this country view certain inner-city districts as no-go areas, and irretrievably so. Similarly with drugs - the conventional wisdom is that we are too far gone to ever bring illegal drug use back under control. This is wrong, the police can easily curb any illegal activity by using the right methods.
Now would be a good time to rob a bank or break in to someone's house; BUT BUY TOO MANY POT NOODLES AND YOU'RE NICKED, SUNSHINE!

The problem is, the police are trying to enforce BJ's speech. But what was passed into law is very different.
We are not (yet) in a police state, but you would be forgiven for thinking we are.
A woman who was exercising (a walk or a jog I'm not sure) decided to go to the shop. Police stopped her and fined her because they deemed what she bought was non essential....

Yet you admit that you would stand at a border and shoot women and children? And you would find this easier than checking someone's shopping trolley?
