Aye, and the crime rate and population is the same too, as is the number of unrecorded crimes by folk who are fed up of asking for help and not getting it.

Numbers are probably a factor, but also the culture of our police sees to different, a bit skewed away from fighting crime.

The resident Jock is right. It needs locking down properly. If you need to leave the town it’s for work only

Queues back outside shops

Pubs restaurants shut, parks shut

Agree generally, but keep parks open. Vital for exercise, fresh air and mental wellbeing. Just a few squaddies on hand to break up twat groups.

Additional laws passed in that time.

Prioritising certain crimes to a minimum investigation standard. 

Theres more but those two are significant additional demands.

If you think we have fuck all coppers, wait til you see how many squaddies we have to go round.

lolllllolloll

Correct but one squaddie willing to carry out his duties is worth 1000 lazy work shy coppers who would  rather dish out speeding fines and all that good important stuff 
 

plus the sight of the military on the streets would have a lot of the not rights scarpering back to their slums pronto

Most of them

Unfortunately, a bag of chan and a few Kestrel super strength and they’ll fancy themselves as Rambo.

and that’s just the squaddies...

Imagine the meltdown from the conspiracy nuts if military are put on the streets. 

I seen one guy on faceache saying he got turned away from a pub in Chorley because he put his Bolton address down on t&t form. He was comparing his experience to being treated as an illegal immigrant. 😂

No apologies for repeating myself. Full day and night in Edinburgh today. Tourist stuff, shopping, pubs and bars, restaurants, you name it, everyone sticks to the rules. Masks on where needed, masks off when not. Late afternoon/ early evening boozing and eating. I thought that Manc had it sorted. This place shows how to do it properly and keep an economy going. Folk queue patiently, wear a mask when required, don’t kick up a fuss and go about their business as if it’s the norm. Totally understand why Esco loves it up here. No mither. It’s like normal life is back again but folk wear masks. It’s so not difficult

I take it you're not convinced?

Not really. I get where he's coming from. 20 - 35 Yr olds are driving some of the  spread at the moment because the places were they socialise indoors have recently been mask free, bars, holidays,their mates house party, etc, and they're less concerned/responsible. It might be schools in a few weeks.  Might be grannies in booths and m&s at xmas. Pissed up footy fans in spring. The virus will exploit any weak point it can.

They sent the ‘bubble’ home to self isolate?

Just the bubble of year 13 (6th form) kids have been told to isolate rather than all. Years 7 & 11 I believe are all receiving letters at home saying to isolate.

Well done, the Scots

Is all this compliance making any difference to the numbers?
