The Government have just imposed new lockdown laws in my area (despite it not being too bad, but as a precaution) and I sense the peoples sense of reality leaving them, we are moving into a surreal world in experts minds (they never obey them of course). See if this makes sense to the rest of you.
The new rules ban people from meeting with others from outside of their own households or support bubbles in private homes and gardens, unless for specific purposes listed below.
A support bubble allows a single-adult household to join with one other household of any size.
Residents are also advised not to socialise with other people outside of their own households or bubbles in all public venues.
People can only come inside your home for these specific purposes:
where everyone in the gathering lives together or is in the same support bubble;
to attend a birth at the mother’s request;
to visit a person who is dying;
to fulfil a legal obligation;
for work purposes, including repairs and other building work, or for the provision of voluntary or charitable services;
for the purposes of education or training;
for the purposes of childcare provided by a registered provider;
to provide emergency assistance;
to enable one or more persons in the gathering to avoid injury or illness or to escape a risk of harm;
to facilitate a house move;
to provide care or assistance to a vulnerable person;
to continue existing arrangements for access to, and contact between, parents and children where the children do not live in the same household as their parents, or one of their parents.
BUT, you can still go to pubs and restaurants ?? All above enforceable by fines, you are encouraged to 'grass' on neighbours breaking the rules (I'd grass on the lot if there was a reward lol), the big plus side is that you cannot visit your children or grandchildren or anyone else unless it's at the pub, at last a return to gin palaces, drunkenness and debauchery, been waiting all my life. Now wtf a 'support bubble' is escapes me, unless it is some sort of support given to get you home after the pub, good idea.
Needless to say the general opinion of the public is music to idiots ears, as one they are saying FU, big brother is definitely here for good.
