Country can go to tier 5, 6 or 200 .. but its pie in the sky without enforcement.

Let's be honest, plod won't turn up if you get bungled or robbed, so why bother putting in GUIDELINES when you can't enforce it?

He should introduce the French system where you need to show a form detailing your reason for being outside your house. Either on paper or on your phone. The form shows who you are, where you live, when you left home and you tick a box against the allowed activity you are doing. No valid form, instant fine. Out for too, long instant fine. Too far from home, instant fine. Fines double each time.

I guess they would need to start the fines at £1000, then the chance of being stopped might be slim but if you are then it's expensive.

This

Our neighbours have broken them every day since March.

Kinda ashamed to admit this but we have been logging movements, writing down vrns of vehicle’s guests arrivie/leave in, what time they arrive/leave, descriptions of guests and have a tally for each person on how many times that week they have visited....

Everything has been reported but nothing, absolutely nothing has happened to them. We don’t particularly like this neighbour for other reasons but they clearly doesn’t give a toss about the virus. Just last week we heard them constantly coughing and guess what? They was still going out, having family/friends round constantly...

I wish police, councils would do their jobs and fine them

Absolutely agree that it’s time to get squaddies patrolling to back up the Police Farce.

Mostly on tubes and trains where I see morons swigging out of beer cans burping coughing and think it’s a big joke.

Most morons welcome confrontation with the police as they are now a laughing stock but they’ll find the green machine a very different entity!

The people breaking the rules stick out, but most people do do what is asked of them. The rules are not restrictive enough, people will continue to do the things that they are allowed to do. If the want people to stay at home they need to close the shops, schools, gyms. Make food shopping "1 person only", and tell the masses they must only go out for 1 hr a day for exercise.

So every time I get a call to give a quote or to take on much needed work out of the blue because I’m self employed trying to keep a roof over my families head and food on their plates...I have to show documentation when sometimes there is no time?

How much notice will I have to have to go and work?

Nobody is gonna pay my bills for me.

I know there is poor grammar in this little spit but hey, hopefully you get what I’m trying to say

I agree, also everyone should be required to produce required papers when asked by council wardens or get instant fines or face arrest.

All businesses and schools should close for 6-12 months, blanket shutdown. No travel more than 3km from home and roadblocks set up at all main junctions.

All those not vaccinated should not be able to attend public places without wearing an identifyable orange badge so we will know who to avoid and point them out to authorities.

Those failing to do so will be arrested and sent to correction units and forcefully vaccinated.

All those protesting about so called hard won freedoms and freedom of speech should be shunned and made to comply and do exactly what Matt Hancock says as he has been proved right from day one.

I hope you're being sarcastic but just in case you aren't, Do you understand what 6 months plus of all businesses and schools being shut down would do to this country? That is literally the future of the country losing out on actual education. You think we have experienced austerity and cuts up till now, imagine what it would be like with all small businesses having folded even though the government tried their best to help, the unemployment rate would be sky high for years because of how many businesses, little and large, would fold. Suicide rates would eclipse the deaths from this virus. Poverty and poverty related deaths would double that at least. Not to mention, there's no social distancing in prisons so the spread of the virus would just find a new core.

People break the rules, they get reported, nothing is done !

Thats life !

As for the army on the streets, really does anyone think that is the answer, martial law ?

The army have no legal powers and no training in enforcement in a civilian environment (with the possible exception of the RMP who patrol the dock cities and places like Aldershot).

The government cant get the legislation to impose restriction written correctly what chance have they of writing a bill to give the army civilian police powers.

Towns and cities are already in a curfew night clubs have been closed very long time who will be struggling very much which leaves the pub change in similar position but we're allowed to open with limited access to people adding more people like the army just creates further at risk when you don't know which location have come from its about isolating to contain to control the virus which isn't what the government has been doing limited access what is necessary to what isn't if restaurants were closed people weren't going to go hungry but had a pick up and go or delivery but this virus has shown how clueless society is just by watching those who walk around like a headless chicken through town centre streets not making a effort to avoid another person

Contrary to what some think it's working too.

It was funny listening to some responses to this the other day when I said this was what France has been doing in response to comments on here about it doesn't work here.

The thing is we've become so accustomed to the freedom we have here compared to even some Way countries that it goes against our thinking to enforce restrictions even though most of us believe them to be right.

I'd say more and more people are calling for them, many saying they should have been done much earlier, but many of these same people were against the suggestion at the time.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing.

All businesses and schools should close for 6-12 months, blanket shutdown. No travel more than 3km from home and roadblocks set up at all main junctions.

All those not vaccinated should not be able to attend public places without wearing an identifyable orange badge so we will know who to avoid and point them out to authorities.

Those failing to do so will be arrested and sent to correction units and forcefully vaccinated.

All those protesting about so called hard won freedoms and freedom of speech should be shunned and made to comply and do exactly what Matt Hancock says as he has been proved right from day one.

Our neighbours have broken them every day since March.

Kinda ashamed to admit this but we have been logging movements, writing down vrns of vehicle’s guests arrivie/leave in, what time they arrive/leave, descriptions of guests and have a tally for each person on how many times that week they have visited....

Everything has been reported but nothing, absolutely nothing has happened to them. We don’t particularly like this neighbour for other reasons but they clearly doesn’t give a toss about the virus. Just last week we heard them constantly coughing and guess what? They was still going out, having family/friends round constantly...

I wish police, councils would do their jobs and fine them

You should be ashamed. That's Stasis level snooping

"He should introduce the French system where you need to show a form detailing your reason for being outside your house. Either on paper or on your phone. The form shows who you are, where you live, when you left home and you tick a box against the allowed activity you are doing. No valid form, instant fine. Out for too, long instant fine. Too far from home, instant fine. Fines double each time.

The French set a limit of €4000, then it is a months house arrest one lockdown was lifted.

You have to admire the French, they don't mess about."

And they were really successful then?

"The very fact that you are talking about enforcement is saddening. What the hell is wrong with people.

If you frighten people enough they will beg for their own self imprisonment to be safe this has worked throughout human history.

You can see the fear in people's faces as you walk in the street.

So sad how people are easily manipulated, fear always works. "

Well not only in the street.. There's a lot of people on here who are begging and I mean begging to be under full lockdown as per police states and free informants to the people in charge.

Next, stop all elections to stop democracy. Not a shot fired and we're now all controlled by volunteers. Great move

The armed forces aren’t the answer to enforcement here. Without a change in the law, they have no more powers than you or I to arrest someone, use force, etc. And our armed forces aren’t exactly numerous these days.

I’d agree with the comment on traffic on the roads today though, not much change to normal. Hopefully it’s just people going to their workplaces and back for the last time to get remote working equipment etc ... but I’m doubtful!

And who gets the blame when someone already vaccinated transmits covid into the group?

Why not just avoid everyone without badges and unnecessary segregation?"

Actually, those who have had the vaccine, they wear a glowing gold star to say they've had it and a bar when they've had their follow up

The enforcement payback is a three month lockdown and a trillion pounds to be clawed back in a generation of austerity and tax increases. Everyone will pay, most can’t see it.

so anyone under the age of 40 would become outcasts.u do realise not everyone will be given a vaccine"

And all under 16's will be barred from everywhere and forced to wear orange badges. No travel outside the area for under 16's. They won't be having the vaccine

"Why are we not rolling out the armed forces? Also stick a strict curfew on the country . Oh yes, put the army on the street to do what exactly ? And a curfew. That’s it, this virus is being spread at the dead of night. Genius.

I agree , the army , a) any idea how small our forces are ? B ) any idea how little civil power they have c ) is this the UK or Bongo Bungo island banana republic ?

Towns and cities are already in a curfew night clubs have been closed very long time who will be struggling very much which leaves the pub change in similar position but we're allowed to open with limited access to people adding more people like the army just creates further at risk when you don't know which location have come from its about isolating to contain to control the virus which isn't what the government has been doing limited access what is necessary to what isn't if restaurants were closed people weren't going to go hungry but had a pick up and go or delivery but this virus has shown how clueless society is just by watching those who walk around like a headless chicken through town centre streets not making a effort to avoid another person"

And breathe

Where are you if you're under curfew?

Let's be honest, plod won't turn up if you get bungled or robbed, so why bother putting in GUIDELINES when you can't enforce it? "

plod arrested a group of 7 here so yes it is enforced

"Some enforcement taking place near us now, police are using ANPR to identify vehicles from outside the area and stopping to ask purpose of their journey."

You know they are using ANPR inappropriately then? There were stories like this on the first lockdown. People saying 2 cars stopped and the people were arrested for being out. The truth was that there were stopped because one had no insurance, mot etc and went to assault an officer and the other one had previously jumped bail.

Did you ask the officers why they stopped the people or are you assuming they were out of the area. There's no provision for that and it's a gross waste of public resources.

Contrary to what some think it's working too.

It was funny listening to some responses to this the other day when I said this was what France has been doing in response to comments on here about it doesn't work here.

The thing is we've become so accustomed to the freedom we have here compared to even some Way countries that it goes against our thinking to enforce restrictions even though most of us believe them to be right.

I'd say more and more people are calling for them, many saying they should have been done much earlier, but many of these same people were against the suggestion at the time.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing."

Hahaha believe them to be a right. They are rights.

We're not at that stage yet but mark my words, certainly this site appears to be voting for a police state and martial law. You do realise that if you vote in your numbers to go down that route, sites like this will be prohibited. Sexual conduct will be fully controlled. Is that what you want? End of sites like fabswingers?

I hope you're being sarcastic but just in case you aren't, Do you understand what 6 months plus of all businesses and schools being shut down would do to this country? That is literally the future of the country losing out on actual education. You think we have experienced austerity and cuts up till now, imagine what it would be like with all small businesses having folded even though the government tried their best to help, the unemployment rate would be sky high for years because of how many businesses, little and large, would fold. Suicide rates would eclipse the deaths from this virus. Poverty and poverty related deaths would double that at least. Not to mention, there's no social distancing in prisons so the spread of the virus would just find a new core. "

The country would grind to a halt quicker if we did nothing, as people would catch the virus and have to go off work. Businesses would still close, people would still loose their jobs only quicker.

That sounds more like Russia or Hitler's Germany than a modern free Western country. "

If it was Russia or Hitler's Germany, you wouldn't be allowed to speak against the government. If you did you could be shot, or imprisoned. Sadly you wouldn't be allowed to be free, due to being part of the LGBT community.

"Why are we not rolling out the armed forces? Also stick a strict curfew on the country "

The army, including all volunteers and reservists totals 187000 soldiers. It wouldn’t make much difference considering the size of the country they’d have to patrol 24/7. The problem with any lockdown rules is that they are completely unenforceable due to the size of the population and size of the country, you’d need a soldier/policeman on every street at all times for it to be a deterrent to people that break the rules, which is impossible

OK so you're comparing someone who invaded other countries, slaughtered millions of people because they were gay or Jewish or not aryan with a nation trying to prevent deaths caused by a virus.?

Ffs the level of debate in here is awful at times. You can wine about lost rights and freedoms that's your opinion. But please stop comparing measures in a democratic state trying to save lives with those in a totalitarian state trying to slaughter people. It's ridiculous.

So the police are underfunded therefore public health measures are unnecessary?

""All those not vaccinated should not be able to attend public places without wearing an identifyable orange badge so we will know who to avoid and point them out to authorities."

And who gets the blame when someone already vaccinated transmits covid into the group?

Why not just avoid everyone without badges and unnecessary segregation?

I think the Jews had to wear a badge in Hitler's time ! "

My thoughts exactly. Starlin type oppression also if went down that route.

So what's the answer? Do nothing? How do you achieve respect for the police service? (service now not force).

"He should introduce the French system where you need to show a form detailing your reason for being outside your house. Either on paper or on your phone. The form shows who you are, where you live, when you left home and you tick a box against the allowed activity you are doing. No valid form, instant fine. Out for too, long instant fine. Too far from home, instant fine. Fines double each time.

I agree, also everyone should be required to produce required papers when asked by council wardens or get instant fines or face arrest.

All businesses and schools should close for 6-12 months, blanket shutdown. No travel more than 3km from home and roadblocks set up at all main junctions.

All those not vaccinated should not be able to attend public places without wearing an identifyable orange badge so we will know who to avoid and point them out to authorities.

Those failing to do so will be arrested and sent to correction units and forcefully vaccinated.

All those protesting about so called hard won freedoms and freedom of speech should be shunned and made to comply and do exactly what Matt Hancock says as he has been proved right from day one.

You missed out on your calling by 80yrs. Hitler would have loved to have had you in his ranks. Forced vaccination whats next after that forced Euthanasia for elderly people? You should be ashamed of yourself for uttering such totalitarian comments. We live in a freedom of speech and movement in a western civalization. You are missing your calling as a dictator buddy. Shameful comments. Forced vaccination for a virus that is only 0.1% fatal.

OK so you're comparing someone who invaded other countries, slaughtered millions of people because they were gay or Jewish or not aryan with a nation trying to prevent deaths caused by a virus.?

Ffs the level of debate in here is awful at times. You can wine about lost rights and freedoms that's your opinion. But please stop comparing measures in a democratic state trying to save lives with those in a totalitarian state trying to slaughter people. It's ridiculous. "

So the quotes about non vaccinated wearing orange arm bands. Or forced vaccination aint?

That sounds more like Russia or Hitler's Germany than a modern free Western country.

If it was Russia or Hitler's Germany, you wouldn't be allowed to speak against the government. If you did you could be shot, or imprisoned. Sadly you wouldn't be allowed to be free, due to being part of the LGBT community. "

Sadly? You condone murder?

"Why are we not rolling out the armed forces? Also stick a strict curfew on the country

The army, including all volunteers and reservists totals 187000 soldiers. It wouldn’t make much difference considering the size of the country they’d have to patrol 24/7. The problem with any lockdown rules is that they are completely unenforceable due to the size of the population and size of the country, you’d need a soldier/policeman on every street at all times for it to be a deterrent to people that break the rules, which is impossible We need a bigger army and more police help save the NHS it would"

Kinda ashamed to admit this but we have been logging movements, writing down vrns of vehicle’s guests arrivie/leave in, what time they arrive/leave, descriptions of guests and have a tally for each person on how many times that week they have visited....

Everything has been reported but nothing, absolutely nothing has happened to them. We don’t particularly like this neighbour for other reasons but they clearly doesn’t give a toss about the virus. Just last week we heard them constantly coughing and guess what? They was still going out, having family/friends round constantly...

I wish police, councils would do their jobs and fine them

Do you not have a life? "

I'd be very surprised if anyone told me that they had a life right now.

If they did, they're probably breaking all the guidelines in order to enjoy that so-called life.

Is it people deliberately breaking the law or is it as suggested by independent sage people who feel unable to follow the rules for economic reasons.

Covid really has highlighted the inequality in this country. Restrictions are a lot easier when you have a job where you can work from your comfortable house receiving your full salary without paying for commuting, whilst getting your groceries delivered from Waitrose or Sainsbury’s .

If you’re on a zero hours contract, don’t qualify for statutory sick pay and have no savings left doing the right thing is a lot bigger challenge.

Only the government can do anything about that though, not the morally outraged of fab.

I seem to recall plans for regional ' Covid enforcers' or something being introduced to walk the streets and the estates catching and reporting rule breakers .. presumably with powers to enforce a fine too? .. or has that been canceled now? I hope not ! If the fine was serious enough and it was made public that anyone breaking rules would have acriminal record that would show up on DBS checks etc in the future.. perhaps we might have some hope of controlling everyone a buit better .\

Germany got it back at the end of the 2nd World War if history is correct. Had Hitler won then I daresay they wouldn't have. North Korea still hasn't.

Your statement was clearly false. It was a look at me headline grabber with no truth. Not an opinion as history has proved time and time again that...

"Once you give up your democracy, you'll never get it back" is untrue.

Well half of them got it back when they lost the war and the allies installed a new government. The other half got it back 45 years later when David Hasslehoff tore down the Berlin Wall. Not sure they loved the time in between though.

"A quick search suggests that breaching Coronavirus regulations constitutes criminal offences.

People who break the criminal law are criminals

I'm glad we're in agreement that the police should go after criminals.

Obviously more valid than burglary, theft, assault etc

All crimes matter

Including the crime of breaching the public health measures

So resources are the priority. I don't disagree but whilst the police are chasing up apparent breaches of the Covid laws, other crimes are expanding exponentially "

Are they? I've not seen or heard a story about crime increasing exponentially? Do you have any facts for that or is it just your feeling?

Consider this... Somebody dies because someone have them covid. Go and ask their family if theyd rather plod had focused on the burglary or the assault with a deadly weapon that someone inflicted on their mum.? Pretty easy choice.

Or sexual assault, r*p*, murder?

Can't work out your simplification of crimes "

It's no simplification at all. If people die as a result of spreading the infection that's more serious than a crime against belongings. As for rap£ murder..

I agree absolutely need to be taken most seriously. Thankfully both are still relatively rare in our country.

Probably less rare than we all think. Hasn't it been all over the news about the massive increase in domestic violence?

Nowadays out of 30 minutes news there's about 5 minutes to items other than Covid related

The police should be chasing up covidiots breaking rules and the army should be out helping them.

Doubt all the protesters in London would take on a unit of squaddies like they did the police.

My example the young lady in Hyde park over the weekend launching items at the police then her friends screaming she was a child the police were man handling her. She is in fact 18 and was resisting arrest for said items and abuse she created.

Or the man in the news this evening travelled from Essex to the Peak District for a day out we are all accountable for our actions and every action has a consequence.

Break the rules take the punishment simple as that.

Just to say that there were 683 murders excluding Greater Manchester and 85,000 women and 12,000 men (16-59) experienced ra£e or sexual assault in England and Wales alone. That's about 11 of the most serious sexual offences (of adults alone) every hour.

That's pretty frightening. I hadn't actually realised that nearly 100,000 people are experiencing life changing assaults each year..

Put that against a person (who may well be exempt) not wearing a mask in a shop

I'm sure they aren't lying but equally a few local plod are not representative of a crime wave trend of murder and assault across the country. I hope I'm wrong.. And we know full well especially in Manchester police have failed to record crime accurately... So others may have done too.

Bonkers Boris doesn't have the minerals to ask for permission to use the civil contingencies act.

Without it, the government can't really enforce naff all regarding policing of covid.

Any PM can ask for it, it is the sole decision of the PM to ask for its use, but it comes with caveats, some of which he is clearly scared off. Once asked for, he can't change his mind.

So go and find the individual that apparently infected your mum. You are obviously intent on blaming someone and I appreciate it's your mum and I'm not taking it lightly but the 100,000 people's lives who were affected are some somebodies mum, gran, daughter , granddaughter, father, grandfather, son etc. Their lives are affected probably up to the next 60+ years and some longer and that does not include under age. Don't these people count?

I'm sorry mate but are you really that ignorant that you just change what you say as if no one can see?

Just to quote your comment again, "Once you give up your democracy, you'll never get it back". So by your statement, you're saying Germany never got back democracy? Yet in your response to the challenge you say they were given it by others. So what is your 'opinion' on your contradiction. One minute you say they can never get it back and the next you are they were given it back as if somehow still justifying your first statement?

They have it back now, so how you you explain your first statement that "Once you give up your democracy, you'll never get it back"?

Who said anything about the dead of night? The virus doesn't select a time that's best to spread, but a curfew from say 9 onwards would keep groups of teenagers off the streets for starters. The police are stretched hence extra help from the military.

All businesses and schools should close for 6-12 months, blanket shutdown. No travel more than 3km from home and roadblocks set up at all main junctions.

All those not vaccinated should not be able to attend public places without wearing an identifyable orange badge so we will know who to avoid and point them out to authorities.

Those failing to do so will be arrested and sent to correction units and forcefully vaccinated.

All those protesting about so called hard won freedoms and freedom of speech should be shunned and made to comply and do exactly what Matt Hancock says as he has been proved right from day one.

The fourth reich beckons you. This is how Hitler started. Free informants and begging to be controlled.

Once you give up your democracy, you'll never get it back

So Germany and other places didn't get it back? You sound very much like a newspaper grabbing headline in your responses bearing little fact. Conspiracies come to mind.

Germany got it back at the end of the 2nd World War if history is correct. Had Hitler won then I daresay they wouldn't have. North Korea still hasn't.

What headline am I grabbing? I just stated my opinion or are you another one who doesn't accept people have opinions?

Your statement was clearly false. It was a look at me headline grabber with no truth. Not an opinion as history has proved time and time again that...

"Once you give up your democracy, you'll never get it back" is untrue.

That is YOUR opinion. I'm entitled to my opinion

Go on then. Tell me how did the Germans get back democracy after Hitler?

Well half of them got it back when they lost the war and the allies installed a new government. The other half got it back 45 years later when David Hasslehoff tore down the Berlin Wall. Not sure they loved the time in between though.

So it wasn't given back to them then? Other counties enabled their freedom. You failed in what you're saying

I'm sorry mate but are you really that ignorant that you just change what you say as if no one can see?

Just to quote your comment again, "Once you give up your democracy, you'll never get it back". So by your statement, you're saying Germany never got back democracy? Yet in your response to the challenge you say they were given it by others. So what is your 'opinion' on your contradiction. One minute you say they can never get it back and the next you are they were given it back as if somehow still justifying your first statement?

They have it back now, so how you you explain your first statement that "Once you give up your democracy, you'll never get it back"?"

If you thought about history, the way and only way the Germans got democracy back was by the allies overcoming the 3rd Reich. The 3rd Reich did not give them back the democratic rights.

"Why are we not rolling out the armed forces? Also stick a strict curfew on the country . Oh yes, put the army on the street to do what exactly ? And a curfew. That’s it, this virus is being spread at the dead of night. Genius.

Who said anything about the dead of night? The virus doesn't select a time that's best to spread, but a curfew from say 9 onwards would keep groups of teenagers off the streets for starters. The police are stretched hence extra help from the military.

The military is stretched as well. Not the solution in my opinion.

Really? Where?

They are doing more than the majority of people know and it is not always appreciated what they actually do. "

"Country can go to tier 5, 6 or 200 .. but its pie in the sky without enforcement.

Let's be honest, plod won't turn up if you get bungled or robbed, so why bother putting in GUIDELINES when you can't enforce it? "

Totally agree, I have said this from the off, there is no point in a law that isn't enforced, people will just ignore it, especially in this country.

Up the fines, 1k minimum, start impounding cars, let em walk home, selfish idiots.

Any shop owners deliberately flouting the rules, up ramping prices up...close them down, they are quick enough visiting pubs and clubs etc

All monies raised from fines, to go directly to the NHS or helping to support businesses.

"Maybe people could just obey the rules.

This

Our neighbours have broken them every day since March.

Kinda ashamed to admit this but we have been logging movements, writing down vrns of vehicle’s guests arrivie/leave in, what time they arrive/leave, descriptions of guests and have a tally for each person on how many times that week they have visited....

Everything has been reported but nothing, absolutely nothing has happened to them. We don’t particularly like this neighbour for other reasons but they clearly doesn’t give a toss about the virus. Just last week we heard them constantly coughing and guess what? They was still going out, having family/friends round constantly...

I wish police, councils would do their jobs and fine them

"

Goodness this takes neighbourhood watch to a whole new level.

Live the history... if you spent significant time in Germany or indeed Berlin you would very much appreciate how their post war history, reunification and their self imposed learnings for Ww2 formed what is probably one of the best examples of democracy and liberalism in the world.

If you spend time studying the era of the 3rd Reich you will find hardcore nazi policy came from a small fraction of society. Their are many examples of fine humanity to be found within Germans throughout the time too.

Also never forget the role Britain and France played in creating the utter monster that was the third Reich. We formed the environment for Hitler to gain power and abuse it in such horrific ways.

Hmmm

We probally played a part with the war guilt clause but other factors led to nazism such as the economic crash.

Not sure what we gain by pointing out other countries difficulties. The French don't seem to have got vaccines going yet. But if the lockdown rules and enforcement are as described... Does that not sound a clearer and more enforceable way? We are all in this together like it or not and it's in all our interests all our near neighbours solve this problem quickly. I wish the French good fortune getting vaccines going soon.

The French population are the most sceptical in Europe when it comes to having the vaccine. Therefore the government are being cautious. You have to have a consultation with your doctor to give your informed consent, if you are elderly you may need a relative with you at the appointment. You can't be vaccinated until 5 days after the consent to give you time to change your mind.

We are in a shitty situation and as well many people are suffering emotionally with trying to do their best whilst others, on the face of it, couldn't give a hoot. And the media just love to make a story out of something. Eg 2 women break the rules and do something silly... Get fined... Let's have 2 days of headlines about it and promote arguments and division.

I think we should try and be a bit more matter of fact about things. Break the rules, get fined, pay the fine, next. People are going to make mistakes and some people are going to be twats. We don't need to revel in the schadenfreude of people making bad choices. Stronger together.

The story about the walkers made the news mainly because they thought they had nothing wrong and then the police have seemingly backtracked.

I'm not a huge fan of some parts of the media ,but there job is to report the news,which is what Thet did.

This angle of trying to implicate the media into it,is ridiculous.

I get what you mean, my anecdotal story wasn't splashed on the news or sensationalised though. Just a bit fucked up that a person who is supposed to be upholding the law is pissing on them exact laws. I wouldn't really of called it a mistake either. They knew what they were doing.
