Oh do tell ............. <yawn> - 1 rule for them etc.?

[Yorkshire Girl]

Our neighbours are at it again, they had visitors this morning and have more this afternoon/evening - unbelievable

[jillydoll]

They've had a street party down the road from us. 😳
And yesterday, next door had visitors.
🤷‍♀️

We've had a street party.  Everyone sat in their own gardens, there was hardly any visiting or loitering with others at all.  Some are outside now .......  1 person who told me intently last week that she is 'isolating' as she is in the vulnerable category  ,wandered down the street at 1.30 to her friends, OK they are sitting in a circle in a garden shouting at each other: but she's down there still  .  Simply don't spit at or touch anyone ........

People are very selfish and STILL not adhering to social distancing etc, very frustrating for those of us who do!

[Sparrow]

I wouldn't rush to judgement as camera angles can be deceptive, plus they were in family groups.

One Brighton newspaper got into a lot of hot water for publishing a photo of a supposedly crowded beach. Turns out it was just camera angle.  Members of the public produced photos of exactly the same time and showed very few people.

Personally I can't be bothered with fretting about what other people are doing.  I just concentrate on following the rules as best I can.

same here.

shows what a judgmental lot we can turn out to be 

now it's proposed that incoming passengers on air lines will be quarantined by the end of May for 14 days ...... why not by the middle of March the it was suggested by myself and many others 

[Sparrow]

It won't work.

People will isolate at home and the police don't want to inforce it. 

Just more government hype to make them look like they are doing something.

[CLKD]

I'm fuzzy headed so 'what won't work'?  discuss 

Hype - exactly that. 

[Sparrow]

Putting incoming passengers in isolation.

There may be a thousand pound fine, for not complying.  That means if you have pots of money, no incentive to comply.  The police will have powers to remove people, to secure locations but they don't want to do this.

There was a scientist on the radio this morning, and he said it will only work when we are down to traceable cases.  When will that be I wonder.

[sheila99]

Why is the UK so different? Other countries have made it work so there's no reason at all that we can't. And yes, it should have been imposed in March. IMO CV check for everyone arriving and no entry for any foreigner who has it.
We've heard enough sh*t from scientists already with the herd immunity theory, maybe should rely a little more on common sense.

[Barnacle]

Our police numbers have been slashed to the bare bones, so i can't see how enforcing any kind of new rules will be possible. The entitled will continue to do what the hell they want.

Quite agree.  All that nonsense about 'we are all in it together', is total rubbish.

The passengers will be escorted, under armed guard if necessary, to dedicated hotels for 2 weeks.  It may discourage people from travelling for a while.  This is 1 issue that should be under a Public Enquiry: why weren't people immediately isolated.  Many countries shut their borders immediately 

I wonder where these Police suddenly appear from

I don't know where you got that from.  That's not what was talked about this morning.  People where expected to self monitor at home, after giving the police their address.
