Look upon your masters and cower. This really is a police state.
Police have arrested anti-lockdown protesters and Julian Assange’s supporters including a 92-year-old for breaking Lockdown rules in central London this afternoon as one over-zealous officer stopped cars outside a Berkshire Tesco and handed drivers leaflets asking: ‘Why are you here today?’
The clampdown on people leaving home without ‘good reason’ came as Boris Johnson quietly extended his third national lockdown until March 31 as his new COVID law was published and he ducked Tory demands to guarantee ‘malicious’ rules are eased after his first review on February 15.
Council Covid wardens were also out in force across the country as the authorities vowed to fine mask-flouters or anyone out of the house without ‘good reason’ at least £200 on the spot. West Midlands Police has asked for permission to force entry into homes to break up parties.
I hate them all. Every single one of them, from the prime minister down to the the curtain twitching neo-Stasis spying on their neighbours. They are objectively evil. They are scum and I despise their very existence.
Or even the right wing of the tories – the remnant-rump of what was once “the Conservative & Unionist Party”
QUOTE:
A leading Tory credited with inspiring Brexit has urged Boris Johnson to cull a raft of EU consumer and worker protections, now the UK has the freedom to act.
Safeguards for the use of data, pay and conditions, GM foods, hedge funds, dangerous chemicals and the disposal of environmentally-damaging vehicles should all be binned, Daniel Hannan said.
“Change is coming. To succeed outside the EU, we need to be fitter, leaner and more globally engaged,” said the former MEP, who has just been made a Conservative peer.
Project reality, not fear.
As I’ve said before. P Corbyn is a certifiable idiot, but that is not a crime, is it?
It is if you are aspiring to run the country.
The current lockdown is at least *slightly* better than lockdowns last year. Some shops, such as WHSmith, which were forced to close for some time last year are now considered ‘essential’ retailers. So it is now possible to buy ‘non-essential’ items such as magazines, books and greeting cards.
We haven’t had the Welsh lunacy of shops sealing off sections of their stock that they considered to be ‘non-essential’. One wonders what high streets will look like after all this is over. Will all the book shops, video game shops, HMVs, department stores, barbers, hairdressers etc have gone out of business?
From the same article: “But the penalties will not be given on the spot and people will be allowed a short time frame with which to produce a doctor’s letter.”
Good luck with that then pigs because this is what the government’s own guidance has to say on masks: “This means that you do not need to seek advice or request a letter from a medical professional about your reason for not wearing a face covering.”
And I doubt that Doctor’s are going to be impressed about having their time wasted on such matters.
We had this bollocks from West Midlands Plod and they were forced to rescind.
Dear Mr Longrider
“… or anyone out of the house without ‘good reason’ …”
Freeborn Englishmen need a “good reason” to be out of their homes?
Is an Englishman’s home now his prison?
