Exactly dragonfly . The same for our village. The virus is still here and just as deadly.

It’s unenforceable. It means Leicester folk will come out to the villages to shop and go to pubs.

Words don't fail me Chew, it's herd immunity, it has always been the plan 'so what if a few old folk die?'
Cummings positively endorses it
His actions, going to Barnard Castle and Johnson's failure to condemn and sack him, gave the green light for the free for all, that we are now seeing
The Government's advice has been very woolly
Is it incompetence, is it deliberate?
I know one thing, it's confusing, it's obsufication. The rules are not clear
They need to be!

a huge list of places in England facing a new lockdown just appeared on FB .Surely this is part of Boris' plan? He wanted a second wave over before the winter flu season,looks like it might happen .Not saving lives ,putting them in danger by easing rules/not being tough on rules .Lockdown was always half hearted,maybe now some will take notice and follow advice

Not sure how this can work. It’s a recommendation.
Just like I believe those 500,000 on Bournemouth beach received the same recommendation. Worked well.
