Numbers are probably a factor, but also the culture of our police sees to different, a bit skewed away from fighting crime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadRunnerFan Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 People that say 'just isolate the old folk and crack on' really dont get it. When you isolate vulnerable older people like this many go down hill mentally fast. They also often have to rely on working age people for practical and emotional support. No man or woman is an island. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Additional laws passed in that time. Prioritising certain crimes to a minimum investigation standard. Theres more but those two are significant additional demands.

Site Supporter only1swanny Posted September 19, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted September 19, 2020 The issue was allowing travel in and out of the country. Should have locked borders and kept them locked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MancWanderer Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

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.
