Don't clap for us. You have stabbed us in the back

My daughter and her husband, both doctors, hate the clapping.

Good to have all your thoughts on this. Thank you. If only everyone was like most GNs

The people who don't keep their distance as described above are morally immature. I mean they are like children at a certain stage of moral development whose moral ability extends only to being seen to obey authority .

The government has not got the message over to these people because they understand only black and white rules, policing, and penalties.

A bit of commonsense should be applied, sadly I have never understood why it is called 'common' because it's exactly the opposite. We are being asked to sit at home for a while; the weather isn't too bad, we can watch television, listen to music, read books, do DIY , phone family/friends . We don't have to leave our beds to go air raid shelters, or fire watch, or go without essentials and yet some are still moaning. I despair!

A nurse who was trying to comfort a patient dying alone from coronavirus could see from the window a large group of people in the park opposite sitting close together drinking.

Some of these people will be out on Thursday clapping.

What a bunch of hypocrites!

I don't clap. But I do everything I can to avoid catching the virus, both to safeguard myself and others. My neighbours, who do clap, currently have visitors [and not for the first time].

My partner saw a group of about 16 30-40 year old sitting in the park together, no distancing. This morning I saw three dads standing close together watching six boys play football. This in my highly respectable Leafy town.

There was a protest in Hyde Park London yesterday by people against the lockdown and coronavirus 5G conspiracy idiots Piers Corbyn (Jeremy Corbyns brother) was arrested.

The Police were put at risk by these selfish idiots!!

The police broke up a party of 75 people in Telford recently.

So sorry for the medical staff who have care for these people when they catch the coronavirus through their own stupidity.

This is how my DDs feel about some nearby neighbours to both of them. BbQs and people coming and going. Even a bouncy castle with several families involved would you believe until the police turned up.Those of you fortunate to live in an area where the residents are sensible and responsible are lucky. DD has been reduced to tears before some shifts with sheer frustration.

It’s frustrating that ignorant people think the rules don’t apply to them. If nothing else you would think they would be concerned about bringing the disease in to their own homes.

We came across two large groups of youths on the old railway footpath yesterday. Not so long ago the council were trying to encourage people to use it as the project had cost a fortune. Now it’s being used for “secret” gatherings. Nuisance as well as it’s only about a mile to the nearest post office but much further if you go along the roads.

There wasn't a peep round here----nor a flag.

60% is a high proportion of selfish beasts !

It was on the news before that alcohol admissions were down 60% since lockdown.
It just shows how unnecessary these admissions usually are when staff are already stretched with broken bones and other injuries.
I can't blame the nurses at all for feeling as they do.

Nothing here- very quiet.

Couldn't agree more. I put a comment on my community FB page because I was disgusted with how many groups there were on VE day. There was a lot of abuse came in (clearly from the guilty) but some of the NHS staff in the area came on and said more or less what you've said AGAA4.
