"Two people if it isn’t from your household. We have a household of three. We can leave the house together. A few miles from where I live, police are stopping cars and asking why they’re travelling. I’m assuming they’re asking people as well. " They wont get much of an answer out of the cars, they should just ask the driver | |||

"So if you can go out to exercise can you drive to the place you want to do the exercise?" I didn't see anything about that in the address last night, so it's not really clear. I'd assume that's fine though - the parks are still open and they're not on everyone's doorstep, and it's not been explicitly banned. | |||

If people carry on as they were over the weekend, it wouldn't be a surprise if the army was drafted in to help, but then it really is scary times. Be nice if folks could be responsible short term, and get all this over with quickly. | |||

It is still open to abuse and has so many cracks in it that relies on common sense and the public being sensible. | |||

" True but didn't they say a few days ago that all non-essential travel is a no-go now? I get that it's a bit nitpicky to argue that driving to a park for daily exercise is technically not essential if you can walk the streets by your home, and I'd highly doubt the police will (at present) penalise you for it, but it'd have been good to have Boris clarify that during or shortly after the address. Annoyingly, my car was smashed up a month ago and its due to come back Friday, so I was looking forward to going for a drive, but I'm now unsure whether or not that's allowed. Also it's a pretty easy 'get out of jail free' card if you're stopped by the police and you're doing something you shouldn't be "just out for a drive officer". | |||

People need to stop fucking about or the army really will be used to support the police and no one wants that. I can’t belive people are still minding about as if nothing has changed, this is above politics or toilet roll. It’s about people’s lives. | |||

"I watched boris yesterday as he talked about it and he said if your friend wants to meet you you have to say no, how will this 2 people thing work you reckon how will it be policed? Personal responsibility " ^^^ this. It's about the safest way to move around outside to minimise the spread of infection. Noone should need to be told by a police officer how to behave in these circumstances, but I guess they have the powers to deal with the extreme digressors. | |||

" police were out in force today dispersing groups of people and handing out fines where I live (Kent)" Which is definitely strange as according to the BBC website it isn't on the statute books yet "The first hurdle is to get them on to the statute book; although the prime minister said the restrictions on travel and gatherings would come into effect immediately, police don't have the powers to enforce them yet," | |||

I’m assuming they’re asking people as well. " We’re carrying a six pack of strongbow in the boot at all times , so if pulled on the way to/from a meet we can say we’ve been out for essential shopping. Im joking of course. These measures are a little ambiguous and mostly unenforceable for a reason. The government is desperately trying to get people to use common sense and to social distance and isolate sensibly, but alas the bulk of the population, and many here it seems , are far to thick to get it. | |||

"Pretty amazing that it needs to be policed at all... This I am amazed at the people who don't seem to get it" Why? I've said in numerous threads that a lot of teh UK public are both thick and ignorant and it's all "me,me, me". I'm lucky that my family are a great bunch and every one of them will comply with what's been said. For me, if you've been brought up properly and you've got a decent set of morals you'll do what is required. All my close mates will tow rank as well There will, however, be whole families saying "fuck you" tho and hopefully they're caught and absolutely hammered by the powers that be. | |||

You also have to remember the same measures are really not needed on the London Underground and airports, to the local village pub. The government could have acted more sensibly, and so could the public. | |||

"I watched boris yesterday as he talked about it and he said if your friend wants to meet you you have to say no, how will this 2 people thing work you reckon how will it be policed?" If people would just do what they are asked, it won't need to be policed. I honestly can't believe so many people are just ignoring it, it's really very sad. | |||

"It can’t be policed but you would want people to be sensible and considerate of others. " This^ But, I do think if you're sensible and take the right precautions meeting a friend for a quick chat or walk would bebe perfectly ok and also beneficial in regards to mental health. What we're gonna learn from this is that it is nigh on impossible to change human nature. As a species we are naturally communal, | |||
