"Between 10pm and 5am. Do you think it would ever happen? Would it be a good idea?" No. It would just create more unnecessary fear and panic plus it would be damaging to the economy and stretch the police even further. | |||

"Between 10pm and 5am. Do you think it would ever happen? Would it be a good idea?" People can't even keep to the rules at the moment. A curfew would be the same. It's not the time people need restricting, it's the amount of places and people they interact with. That said the way this year has panned out, and the mind blowing descions made in this country so far, nothing would shock me now.  | |||

Add in routine accidents n thefts .. we then have no local officers..local town on limited too so rarely cover.. Add in a domestic case (not that they act on that well either at worse mercia force)then theres no officers.

Am I the only person that sees just how much BS this really is?" They way I see it government had 3 options, 1) government does nothing lots of people die government gets sack 2) government imposes a meaningful hard lockdown stops the spread but destroyed the economy, people protest, people die, government gets sack 3) government tries to use a range of measures in a bid to save lives but also maintain economic activity Thick as pig shit people look at each rule in isolation rather than see the collective impact... they decide its nonsense because they are too dim to see past their own noses... compliance becomes poor, the virus spreads, people die, maybe the government convince enough voters they tried and are able to hold on to power when it’s all over.

" Tell me, what would your solution have been?" To stop dithering about, pissing in the wind and generally falling into the 'do something' trap. Sometimes there really is nothing sensible you can do, that's the time when you should really do.... nothing. I have said it before and will say it again. Lockdown to solve an immediate crisis, yes - sensible, effective and correct. Lockdown to 'control the virus' long term, no - stupid, pointless, unworkable and ultimately useless. Why were we not evaluating rapid tests 3 months ago? Why were we not increasing lab capacity over summer so we'd have enough in winter? Why has the ONLY response been restrictions on civil liberties? Where's the massive investment in healthcare, in science, in testing? Oh, wait, we spent all of the money on furlogh.... | |||

" I thought it was up to 6 from only 2 households? Yes it was but on Monday the new "super simple six" rule starts and they can be from anywhere. Ludicrous. " That's just nuts. Nothing makes sense that they implement at all. Sounds more like a money making scheme and a massive excercise in crowd control. I think Orwell had the wrong year by the look of the way things are heading. | |||

" So unless you where organising a big party, The rules are less restrictive. " They have now said Christening parties are exempt and you can have 30 guests. I wonder if there will be a big rise in teenagers and young adults getting Christened ? | |||

"Im now beginning to think its all bull, 30,000 people "every year" Die of COPD alone.. Yet this its classed as a virus The same goes for your good old fashioned FLU bug 29,000 - 59,000 " I am curious, how many deaths would be required before you could be convinced it isn’t all bull? We have seen similar deaths to a bad flu year but a) we have only really had 6 months of Covid circulating b) we have had lockdowns, masks and widespread testing, measures that have greatly reduced the number of people infected and the numbers who would otherwise have died. But it’s all a load of bull . | |||

"It won't happen, and the Bolton thing isn't a curfew, " Exactly that. It's a restraint on pubs and eating places, restricting sales to "take away only" and on condition that trading does not take place between 10pm and 5am. | |||

" Maximum of 6 people from 2 households, remember lol.
In all the announcements today "from two households" was never mentioned. Hancock kept saying "simple six" but I'm not sure now what the exact rules are. "The rules are clear, 6 people no restrictions on the number of households. | |||

The rules are clear, 6 people no restrictions on the number of households.

I don't think this is true. The couple with 4 children could only have formed a support bubble with a person who lives alone so they couldn't form a bubble with both grandparents. Under the new rules on Monday they still couldn't all meet together. | |||

"The government is looking at imposing a nationwide curfew in the coming days in a bid to control the rise of the coronavirus infection rate. Sources at Number 10 have confirmed that ministers are in discussions today about imposing a night-time lockdown from 10pm to 5am. It could be another blow for many hospitality businesses which are only now getting back on their feet. This is an extract from the story I read in my local paper,hence my post." If I was a cynic I would say that it sounds as if the government is trying very hard to kill the pub and restaurant trade stone dead. | |||

Apparantly at a cost of £30k each per year, yet another kick in the teeth to all our nurses and health care staff. | |||

" What about 2 single people that share a house? " One of them could have a support bubble with a person living alone or with children but both of them couldn't have a support bubble. It doesn't matter from Monday now. They can both have people in the house. | |||

What about 2 single people that share a house? "If they live as a household then no they don't get a support bubble. Same as a single parent if one of the children is over 18 you don't qualify either. Its only if only one adult lives at the address. | |||

"So why if covid is so seriously contagious do they not supply Hazard bags for masks and gloves for general population?. " Apparently the virus can only survive 48-72hrs outside the body. The advice for those infected was to bag all such waste and hold it for a week before disposal, by which time it has become safe. Except as with everything else, the general public don’t give a shit, and the message is lost in all the bluster and bullshit from Boris and Handjob. | |||

" Basically unless you're household or support bubble already exceeds 6(in which case no one else is allowed in the house) you can only meet up with or have over a total of 6 people including yourself/household. | |||
