Just went for a stroll. Observed pubs not rammed but many more than every night this week. Lots of young folk in who are apparently immune or hoping for an early inheritance.

I fucking hate the Tories but fair play for that today. They did the right thing. You can't help everyone but that was impressive. We'll worry about the implications and aftermath later eh! Let's just keep alive for now.

I'm still staggered by people's complete lack of understanding and negligence about this issue though. Pubs are busy tonight and many don't have a grasp of the seriousness of the situation. Moaning pubs are to shut etc. We have many selfish idiots in this country of ours.

Problem now coming with the panic buyers is they will be running low soon and the shelves are still empty. Guess who will be queuing up and causing mayhem when a delivery lorry or two pulls in.

Limits seem to be in place now. Hopefully that will help. People are thick and selfish though.

I wouldn’t say anyone was trolling, these are unprecedented times.  On this, I agree.  Our WW2 relatives would be ashamed.  There are times in life where telling the govt to duck off is right, which is most of the time, now is not that time.   Ow is the time to listen and act out of an abundance of caution.  Have a pint or seven Sippo

The problem is you can put limits on items but when family members split up in the queue what chance do we have

It amuses me that when gammons and pro Brexit types assert that people in this country did great things in the past and will do so again.  What this fails to recognise is that society has changed immeasurably and recent events show that a large section of the population are selfish twats who have no regard for others.  If certain historical events were replayed now with the current population, I am not sure that the results would be the same.

Despicable opinion piece from the BBC. The opposite of what’s needed right now. Cites no evidence for his claim we could double ICU beds.

Feels like the influence of Cummings. Testing out public reaction. Sadly some of the greedy and selfish will believe sacrificing our old and vulnerable is a price worth paying to keep their own riches.

A bit like the young remainers ignoring advice on social gathering?
