We are talking about social distancing, courteous masking, being clean.  None of those things are particularly intrusive. Indeed, if a person with dirty hands invaded your personal space and breathed all over you, how would you react? Kinda polite not to sneeze and cough all over other people................................. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

But he won’t answer my reasonable questions in any detail, so I’m left guessing a bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Freedom to put strain on NHS resources.  Is that the sort of "freedom" you subscribe to?  How about mutual respect? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

That rather depends.  Are you another who is looking forward to the opportunity to breathe on strangers? No it doesn't. And no, never done that ever.

Anybody who does not like that and are worried can easily stay at home and keep to the previous lockdown rules.   6 minutes ago, Longcol said: How about mutual respect?
