"There needs to be a clamp down, the government seem to be in a bit of limbo albeit understandable given Boris is in hospital but they need to come out and say this lockdown is being extended till whenever.. And they need to start enforcement of the legislation the police have which seems to be hit and miss between forces in their interpretation.. Some people amongst us are completely stupid to the risks and the possible consequences which is staggering and are simply not listening.. " Aye or it'll be bloody xmas and we will still be sat indoors while people drop like flies. The idiocy and selfishness.... just wow. Stay safe | |||

"There are 168 hours in a week and I make no apologies for being out for 14 hours doing the following: Shop for food and medications for myself Shop for food and medications for my neighbours, both pensioners, both with cancer, and both on a 12 week lockdown. And finally I shop for two disabled pensioners, one of whom also has learning difficulties, who are housebound and who seem to have been forgotton by social services. So if you see me driving down the road please think before you condemn me as one of those stupid people ignoring the lockdown. I am by the way an 80 yr old pensioner." I haven't condemned anyone .... I am condemning those in supermarkets buying ice cream to sit in the park or popping to their mates with a crate of beer. Leaving for essentials whether that be for your own home or a vulnerable persons is entirely different. | |||

Aye or it'll be bloody xmas and we will still be sat indoors while people drop like flies. The idiocy and selfishness.... just wow. Stay safe " Before I comment Please be 100 percent certain I totally agree with the lockdown Please be 100 percent certain I think we are being too lax Please be 100 percent certain I would stop most public transportation I think 2 m is not enough and I would be be consulting upon how we can increase the supply of more ppe for more people and training Now that said What is it that "we" think these measures achieve? My understanding is the lockdown absolutely will not stop the virus my understanding is to do that is nigh on impossible My understanding is the lockdown quite rightly is there to permit a managed number of seriously infected be treated adequately by our NHS so they can survive It however will conversely mean a LONGER time in lockdown the better people adhere to the rules the less will get it meaning more will still be vulnerable any time we relax rules Until a vaccine is made we are hoping it's a single hit wonder Until a vaccination OR over 20 ?30 million 40 million ??????????? Have had it social restrictions will be required to prevent an NHS overload This is a balancing act with no precise answer until a vaccine It appears and I do so hope I'm wrong The more strict we are the better survivability for a vulnerable 20 percent and it helps the NHS but conversely the longer liberties will be removed Ie imo beyond xmas at current rate of infection It seems some feel a severe lock down means the virus will vanish and normality can resume more quickly If only that were the case Please prove my hypothesis incorrect | |||

"I actually went to the asda after work yesterday and was fuming that queues where inside the shop rather than outside The aisles are very narrow forcing people with trolleys to push past to get to shelves No screens round the tills and no one cleaning the baskets What’s all that aout" They have a one way system in our Asda if you miss something you have to go all the way back around and people queuing one way down an isle with people going up it the other so only 2ft apart and can’t get anything where the queue is lol but same here no queue outside only in but they are wiping the trolley for you before you go in. | |||

"My friend, who is a nurse has just phoned me in frustration at this. She has just driven back from the hospital and said there are people everywhere. Large groups of adults with children therefore not from the same household, going into shops in pairs, a lot more traffic on the roads. They don’t listen. The only way to solve it is totally lockdown. Forget the exercise hour. Stop people going out. I get and understand the difficulties however if we carry on like this the longer it will go on and the worse it will be. " Please the more they do it the shorter it will go on however more will die | |||

"Someone who works in the emergency services asked me to meet up last. Can you imagine! I told him I was under the impression our key workers were meant to be intelligent and he blocked me " Must be because of working long hours and having lot of stress at work.. I think his full balls spoke on his behalf | |||

"I start work at 6am... pretty much daily. I've had 1 day off in a fortnight. I usually work about 15 hours a day. The warmer it is the more people are out. Roads chocka today....actual traffic! Every shop I drove past was heaving and queued down the street. What is so difficult about "stay at home"....... what does it take for people to stay in? I dont care its sunny or your bairn wanted an ice lolly or your your pal is having a BBQ..... stop just stop " I wasnt aware shops were open at 6am. Also, I'm curious. If you were just driving by on your way to your 15hour day how did you know what these folk were buying? | |||

"I think it's because it's not visible enough. When the bodies were piling up in Italy a month ago it was all over the news, pictures of coffins being moved by forklifts, army trucks Full etc. I've just listened to the 9am news on the radio and the 900 dead yesterday was the 3rd item. I don't care about Johnson being out of the ICU, 900 other people and their families are more important than him today. " I'm a bit confused by all this. Anyone who doesn't practice social distancing is a selfish so and so, endangering our vulnerable, putting undue stress on the NHS..... unless it's the PM, leading by example shaking hands in hospitals. Now he's a hero who "took one for the team". I get that people do physical work that can't be done from home. Politics don't fall into that category. In fact the entire parliament can be put on hold to prepare for the queens speech if I remember correctly. For me this doesn't add up. | |||

If Boris hadn't gone visiting in the early days you will have called him for that too - so in a sense he DID put himself on the front line with his life. Boris is still being consulted while in Hospital. COVID is in power the World over. Why not find something a little more positive to report - give people some hope that we will come through this - just once I dare ya'? | |||

"Yes I have been accused of scaremongering from the start. Nearly 1000 people are dying every day in the UK. Something I find of great concern. I find it sad that some people find it a laughing matter and something to be positive about. But each to their own." Is it not a healthy psychological condition to reason rationalise understand and objectively find positives in any situation It think it disingenuous to suggest understanding positives in anyway diminishes the gravity or seriousness of any tradigdy However humans are often sadly thrown into tragic circumstances it's not unreasonable for them to find a positive coping mechanism Each year in the UK tragically for each circumstance around 700 000 people die And positively around the same born It seems this year will be extra tragic But perspective can help the human brain remain calm I feel we will be dealing with this tragic position for many months . Deaths are inevitable psychologicall torture is also inevitable Humans finding ways to rationalise inevitable I do find it curious The third world has been tortured by plagues and very poor health care annually all my life Maleria tb and others are still rife however it seems as it does not effect the rich countries it's no biggy Just some perspective Any life lost is tragic for someone Some lives lost we must accept as the passing of life (old age) And some seem without any justification So yes let's as a positive after this recognise child deaths across the poor world are a needless tragedy one worth sacrificing our liberties and finances for no more but no less than Bob in Manchester aged 54 | |||

It's actually a positive step towards fixing a problem that exists, whereas denying a problem exists and attaching negative labels and launching personal attacks on people who point out those shortcomings is a negative process no matter how it is surrounded by an overuse of smiling/laughing emojis. Being bitchy is firstly negative and secondly against forum rules. | |||
