I'm sick of it all, too. How is it that 60,000 people can go to watch football, so many can watch tennis, then all those at Ascot, the G7 meeting - but I can't see my grandchildren do their sports day?
It's one rule for the rich and/or famous (no rules), and something else for the rest of us.
I absolutely agree. We did everything we were asked/told to do. We’ve obeyed the rules, worn a mask, sanitised, socially distanced, not gone out, etc and we’re still being restricted. On Sunday we’re going out for lunch with my elderly mother and a visiting cousin and her husband. But my two sons and their families can’t join us because of restrictions. But we’ll be seeing them the day before and the same day in our garden. It’s ridiculous. People’s mental health has been destroyed by these now unnecessary restrictions. At first the restrictions were needed, now they’re redundant because 3 out 5 adults are double vaccinated. My family are double vaccinated including my cousins. We live in a low transmission area, 28 cases per 100,000 but we’re under the same rules as Greater Manchester. Meanwhile the crowds at Ascot and football matches and cricket, the officials, the Heads of State from all over the world, all 2,500 football officials, and Uncle Tom Cobbley and all can freely mix, mingle, and ignore all the restrictions. Of course we’re fed up, we can see all this on our television screens every day.
